CDL Driver / Hydroseeder Operator in Wilmington, North Carolina at Eco Express LLC

Eco Express is hiring a CDL Driver / Hydroseeder Operator to move equipment, materials, and supplies between our yard and active jobsites, and to run our 4,000-gallon hydroseeder in the field.

This is a hands-on driving role. You will spend part of your day behind the wheel and part of it on site — loading, securing, applying hydroseed, and working alongside our crews. If you hold a CDL, take DOT compliance seriously, and would rather be outdoors than in a warehouse, this is a good fit.
