Why Sprinter Van Drivers Are Hard to Find
Sprinter van drivers occupy a niche between box truck and passenger vehicle delivery. The cargo capacity is limited but the versatility is high — medical supply, pharmaceutical, catering, and expedited small-parcel all use sprinters.
Average fill time: 2-3 days — easy to fill but high turnover
Hiring Mistake to Avoid
Overloading sprinter vans. The typical cargo capacity is 3,000-4,500 lbs — exceeding this voids the vehicle warranty and creates liability. Train drivers on weight limits and require manifest review before loading.
