The CDL-A Local Intermodal Driver hauls intermodal containers throughout the Los Angeles and Inland Empire areas, operating through rail ramps in Long Beach, Los Angeles, Commerce, City of Industry, and Bloomington. Some assigned pickups and deliveries are in Shafter and Lebec. Freight includes drop-and-hook, live loading and unloading, and preloaded loads.

Schedules are Sunday–Thursday or Tuesday–Saturday, and optional extra workdays are available. Drivers generally use their full 11-hour driving time; shifts may extend to the full 14-hour clock depending on freight demands. Holiday schedules vary; volunteers are normally requested for major holidays, and operations shut down early on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. Pay is $19.25 per hour plus $18.71 per stop. An additional weekly pay range of $1,000–$1,500 is listed. No bonus or short-haul pay is offered.
