USPS Phasing Out Non-Domiciled CDL Use

The U.S. Postal Service announced it will begin working with its contracted trucking providers to phase out any use of non-domiciled Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) operators who have not been thoroughly vetted by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.

“The safety of our employees, our customers, and the American public is of the utmost concern to the Postal Service,” stated Amber McReynolds, chairwoman of the Postal Service Board of Governors. “In order to maintain the highest possible safety standards, we have decided to phase out any use of non-domiciled Commercial Driver’s License operators who have not been thoroughly vetted by the Postal Inspection Service.”

With this action, USPS seeks to improve transportation safety and accountability and add yet another layer of protection and safety.

“We believe this additional requirement will strengthen the safety, efficiency and reliability of our services into the future,” stated Postmaster General and CEO David Steiner.
