Is PHF Holdings part of FedEx?

No. PHF Holdings, Inc. is an independently owned company that contracts with FedEx Ground to deliver and pick up packages. You'd be hired by PHF, work for PHF, and be paid by PHF — driving routes we operate under contract with FedEx Ground.

Do I need a CDL?

No. Our step vans don't require a commercial driver's license — a regular driver's license with a clean record is what we need, plus a DOT physical and drug screen that we arrange for you.

Where would I report to work?

Asheville drivers report to the FedEx terminal near the Asheville airport: 620 Ferncliff Park Drive, Fletcher, NC 28732. Monroe drivers report to the terminal in Monroe: 1691 Stafford St Ext, Monroe, NC 28110. Maps for both are on the Locations section of the home page.

What does it pay?

$160–$230 per day, paid weekly, with a guaranteed daily minimum of $160. During peak season we also award bonuses at the owner's discretion. Health, dental, and vision insurance are available — the premium comes out of your check, and PHF contributes a set amount each month. Paid company holidays and an annual PTO program begin after your first anniversary.

Is training paid?

Yes — training days are paid at $100/day, and you'll also do a ride-along day before you commit, so you can see the real job before taking it.

Are vehicles provided?

Yes — you drive a company step van that we maintain and track. We also have a program where drivers can use their personal vehicles to deliver packages, if that suits you better — those deliveries pay $2.00 per stop.

How physically demanding is it?

It's honest, active work. You're in and out of the truck 80–120 times a day, handling packages up to 75 pounds, in whatever weather North Carolina serves up. Drivers who like moving, being outdoors, and running their own day tend to love it; it's not a desk job and doesn't pretend to be.

How much driving experience do I need?

No delivery experience required — we train you. You need to be at least 21 with a clean driving record.

Will I have a permanent route?

That's the goal. New drivers start on denser, easier routes and move toward a permanent assignment as skills and local knowledge grow — a route you own, in a neighborhood that knows you.

Are full-time and part-time jobs available?

Full-time and part-time jobs are available. Tell us your availability when you call or text.

Can I apply for a specific location?

Yes, please do — tell us if you're interested in the Asheville or Monroe location when you call or text.

How quickly will I hear back?

We're a small company and read every application — you'll normally hear from us within a few business days.
