350+ Transportation & Delivery Jobs in Philadelphia, PA

Observed local government pay is more modest than some posted-salary ads suggest. BLS puts the Philadelphia transportation and material-moving group at $23.43 per hour, the broader SOC 53 family at a $44,740 median and $48,730 mean annual wage, and couriers and messengers at $20.43 per hour in May 2025. By contrast, sampled postings in the last 90 days center on about $22 to $24 / hour for hourly roles and about $82k to $90k for salaried roles, which likely reflects a mix that includes dispatch, supervisory, and fleet-management jobs rather than typical driver-only pay.

What our analysts see this month

Competitive market | next 3-6 months

Philadelphia is still a real Transportation & Delivery market, not a dead one: transportation and material-moving occupations accounted for 8.5% of metro employment in May 2025, and the broader SOC 53 family employed 247,580 workers locally. But landing a role is harder than the headline unemployment rate suggests. Metro Trade, Transportation, and Utilities employment was 533.1 thousand in August 2026 and down -1.0946% year over year, while Pennsylvania Transportation & Delivery postings were down 13.5% year over year in September according to Revelio Public Labor Statistics. More than 500 recent postings across more than 200 companies show there is still hiring, but you need to match the license, safety, and route expectations closely.

Best positioned: Candidates with a valid driver's license or Class A CDL, current DOT paperwork, and recent proof of safety, inspection, and route work have the best odds, especially if they are open to on-site entry or route-based jobs.

Main caution: The biggest trap is assuming the about $82k to $90k posted-salary center reflects typical driver pay when local government wage benchmarks for the occupation family and courier roles are much lower.

Where the demand is

Real opportunity is concentrated in high-volume, operationally simple lanes: restaurant delivery, general transportation/logistics/storage, truck transportation, and a smaller retail slice. In the posting sample, restaurants account for about 30% of postings, transportation, logistics, supply chain and storage about 20%, transportation about 15%, truck transportation about 10%, and retail about 5%. Domino's Inc. is the clearest named high-volume employer with more than 75 postings, but the market is fragmented rather than dominated by one firm. That fragmentation helps job seekers who are willing to apply broadly across employer types, but it also means no single company will carry your search. The metro still has a large underlying base for this work: transportation and material-moving occupations made up 8.5% of local employment in May 2025, and the broader SOC 53 family employed 247,580 workers. The weaker point is current momentum: metro Trade, Transportation, and Utilities employment was down -1.0946% year over year in August 2026, so hiring is concentrated in replacements, local-route coverage, and selective specialized roles rather than across-the-board expansion. Evidence is strongest for ground transportation, delivery, and material-moving jobs. It is much thinner for niche sub-roles such as pilots or transit operators, so this page is most reliable for driver, courier, forklift, dispatcher, and fleet-support decisions.

• Last-mile and restaurant delivery (high): This is the clearest volume lane right now: restaurants represent about 30% of sampled postings, and Domino's Inc. alone shows more than 75 postings in the last 90 days.
• Truck transportation and CDL routes (moderate): Truck transportation is a smaller share of the sample at about 10%, but bargaining power improves if you bring Class A CDL, DOT paperwork, safety compliance, and vehicle inspection depth.
• Dispatcher, fleet-support, and salaried transport roles (moderate): These jobs can pay better, but they are a narrower lane because the sample is heavily entry level and the high salary postings likely skew toward supervisory or support work instead of basic driving.

Where to focus: If you need work fast, target on-site route-delivery and restaurant employers first; if you already have CDL and DOT compliance, compete upward into truck transportation and better-paying fleet-support lanes.

Roles worth searching next

• Logistics coordinator: It uses the same route awareness, inventory handling, timing discipline, and customer handoff skills that show up in local Transportation & Delivery postings.
• Shipping and receiving coordinator: Vehicle inspection, inventory management, safety habits, and forklift exposure all transfer well into this lane.
• Fleet compliance coordinator: DOT paperwork, safety compliance, inspections, and regulated-driving knowledge translate directly.
• Warehouse operations coordinator: Local postings frequently ask for inventory management, safety compliance, and forklift operation, which are all useful in warehouse operations roles.

What postings ask for

• Valid driver's license (table_stakes | immediate): A valid driver's license is one of the most common stated requirements in local postings, making it the baseline screen for much of the market. Who: Everyone entering the category.
• Class A CDL (premium | near-term): Class A CDL shows up among the most common stated local requirements, and BLS identifies a commercial driver's license as required for long-haul truck drivers. Who: Applicants targeting truck transportation, heavier equipment, or higher-paid route work.
• DOT medical card / DOT physical (differentiator | immediate): DOT medical card and DOT physical requirements appear repeatedly in local postings, so having paperwork current reduces friction in regulated hiring. Who: Anyone applying to commercial-driving or regulated fleet roles.
• Safety compliance (table_stakes | immediate): Safety compliance is one of the most-requested local skills, which matters more when employers are selective and sector growth is soft. Who: All drivers, couriers, forklift operators, and fleet-support candidates.
• Vehicle inspection (differentiator | immediate): Vehicle inspection appears among the top requested local hard skills, so it helps separate experienced operators from generic applicants. Who: Drivers moving beyond entry-level route work.
• Customer service (differentiator | immediate): Customer service is the most-requested local skill, which fits a market where restaurant delivery is a large share of postings. Who: Entry-level applicants and career switchers from retail or hospitality.
