What pay to put on a delivery driver poster
Posters with a real number get more walk-ins than “competitive pay.” For reference, the Bureau of Labor Statistics puts the median for driver/sales workers at $18.64/hr nationally and $22.76/hr in the Boston metro (May 2025 estimates). The full delivery driver salary breakdown shows the range.
The delivery driver role in one line
A restaurant delivery driver takes orders from the kitchen to customers' homes and offices and keeps food hot, accurate, and on time. The role is common in pizzerias, takeout spots, and full-service restaurants that run their own delivery.
Requirements worth printing
Keep the poster to the two or three that actually screen people out. The rest belongs in the full posting.
- Valid driver's license and a clean driving record
- Reliable vehicle with current registration and insurance, if the restaurant requires drivers to use their own
- Good knowledge of the local delivery area or willingness to use navigation tools
- Ability to lift and carry bags and drinks and climb stairs
- Friendly, professional communication with customers
Typical schedule
Delivery drivers typically work lunch and dinner peaks, with weekends, bad weather, and game days being the busiest.
