About The Position

Maine Oxy is hiring a full-time Class A HazMat Driver to deliver compressed gas cylinders and hard goods on scheduled regional routes. Drivers return empty cylinders for refilling, serve repeat customers, and help customers anticipate their cylinder needs.

The schedule departs Monday morning, with drivers on the road Monday through Thursday or Friday and home on weekends. Routes are divided into four zones, with one zone covered each week.
