About The Position

Rapid Medical is seeking an independent-contractor medical courier for a 39-mile route from San Gabriel to Los Angeles, Monday through Friday, beginning at 12:00 PM and lasting approximately 2.5 hours. Contractors located within 15 miles of the start point, end point, or along the route are well-suited for the position. The courier uses a driver app for navigation, scheduling, and real-time support; photographs pickups and deliveries and records proof of delivery; handles specimens carefully while maintaining required room-temperature, refrigerated, or frozen conditions; and promptly contacts dispatch about damage, improper packaging, or other concerns. The route rate is all-inclusive, covering mileage, drive time, and expenses. Additional weekly, training, and sign-on bonuses may be available under the stated conditions. Payments are made by bi-weekly direct deposit or same-day cash-out, which may involve fees.

Engagement is contingent on a satisfactory background check and motor vehicle record review. Contractors are responsible for self-employment taxes, and a 1099-NEC is issued for payments made.
