Why Box Truck Driver Hiring is Different in Memphis
Memphis anchors the FedEx WorldHub (largest FedEx superhub globally) and the 3rd-busiest cargo airport in the world. The I-40/I-55 junction and proximity to the Mississippi River make it a critical crossroads for Midwest-to-Southeast and East-to-West freight. Drivers here face tight delivery windows on ground-to-air transfer freight and heavy night-shift demand tied to FedEx sort cycles.
