Laclede Cab

10/17/2022

Most of you have never have tried driving for a living. Or maybe you've driven buses, big rigs, shuttles, rideshare or something else but the scheduling, the percentage of your money companies take, etc. hasn't worked out for you.

Give us a try. At Laclede, you can drive one of our sedans, vans or SUVs and pick up customers who place orders with us OR you can pick up your own clientele. See, drivers here work where they want, when they want. And because you'll be an independent contractor, we don't issue paychecks. You'll lease the cab, but your customers pay you - every time you drive them somewhere, so every day is payday.

For those of you that are pretty good with tech - apps, maps, etc. - you might find our system especially appealing.

You get free training here, then you keep the cab 24/7 and with our Dispatch and customer base always at your disposal - with our insurance. And because we're local, we provide real administrative support with free vehicle maintenance and more.

Drivers are in demand all over. We know that. So we offer real, lasting incentives but we begin right away: How about a discounted lease for the first two weeks? That's standard now. You even get monetary rewards at Laclede just for driving safely - your first one as fast as 21 days. We have monthly drawings AND you earn referral rewards for new drivers you bring on board, too.

There's more, but you want specifics so tap "Apply". Our GM will contact you to schedule an interview where you can discuss the job, the training, the short-term lease costs, what kind of vehicles we have, etc. and get all your questions answered. Your no pressure, one-on-one time - to ask whatever you want with no pressure.

You don't even need a Class E license to drive a cab. A standard Missouri Class F works. And if you live in IL and have an IL license, that works, too.

If you have questions, tap "APPLY" to contact us, then set up an appointment to speak to our General Manager.

Remember, race, ethnicity, country of origin, religious preference, gender ID, sexual orientation, education, etc. make no difference to us nor should they. Our fleet is diverse, and we're proud of it!

Here, work where you want when you want because we're not your boss here - we're your support system. So like any good independent contracting job, we don't issue paychecks; customers you transport will pay you every day for rides you provide. It's that simple. Really.

You get free training, in house and on the road, then you keep the cab 24/7 and with our 24-hour Dispatch and customer base at your disposal. You even get our insurance! And we provide real administrative support because we're local, with free vehicle maintenance and more.

The incentives? We offer real incentives, not some sign-on offer just to entice you. In fact, we even offer discounted leases for the first couple of WEEKS for brand new drivers. And you get monetary rewards simply for driving safely - your first one in as quick as 21 days! - because safety is a priority here. Getting them there safely always beats getting them there in record time, and we reward safety.

We also have random drawings monthly for freebies, rewards for being recognized as 5-star by the public for outstanding service, and more. AND maybe you have a good driver to bring on board later? You'll earn referral rewards for those, with no limit... If we need them and they work out, you get a referral bonus!

There's more, but let's get started. Send us your information. Our General Manager will contact you to schedule an in-person interview to give you details about the job, training, short-term leases, vehicles, etc. and answer your questions. The in-person interview is NOT a commitment; its just an interview and takes about half an hour. It's your chance to talk to us with no pressure.
By the way, if you live in IL and have an IL license, you can also apply!

You need a Missouri Class F (standard) driver license or better to apply. If you live in Illinois, you need an Illinois license. Later - if the interview goes well and you want to try this - you'll need these (we can help with them):

- A good driving record (recent history is important).
- A physical and a drug test.
- A fingerprint background check.

Remember, race, ethnicity, country of origin, religious preference, gender ID, sexual orientation, education, etc. make no difference to us nor should they. Our fleet is diverse, and we're proud of it! We hope to hear from you soon!

We don't even take a cut of your credit card fares. You can accept cash, our corporate vouchers, school vouchers - even our branded Gift Cards. And our Dispatch system will be at your disposal 24/7.

At Laclede Cab, drive one of our sedans, vans or SUVs - and your income is limited only by how much you want to work. You're a true independent contractor here, and that means you can literally TAKE HOME MONEY EVERY DAY.

For some people, that's hard to imagine. "How much does a driver make?" That depends on you. Really. Lease the cab and our dispatching services, and what you make is yours. We don't even take a cut of your credit card fares. Those of you that have driven other places might not be used to that. And besides credit card fares, you can accept cash and our corporate vouchers, our Gift Cards, you'll 24-hour Dispatch at your disposal, a regional customer base, a true support system, vehicle maintenance, and more. So what does a driver make? Depends on the driver. Seriously.

What else? Well, some of you have already discovered that by driving for other types of services, the mileage on your personal car can cost you thousands at trade-in time. It's time to maximize your earning potential, not hinder it.

Laclede Cab drivers have good driving histories, passed physicals and drug tests, have a Class E driver license or better, and have been fingerprinted with results accepted by regulators. They're safe, qualified and good at what they do. But we're always looking to add good people. Take that first step: Fill out the application or contact us by private message. Then we'll contact you, ask a few qualifying questions and schedule an interview. If things sound good after that, we'll walk you through how to get licensed.

Basic requirements:
- Class E license. It's just a written test and you don't need it until you're ready to drive. We can help with that.
- A good driving record. We look at safety issues, especially recent ones. So if your driving record is ugly, but that ugly is long ago, we get it. Let us take a look.
- Pass a physical and drug test.
- Pass a fingerprint background check. Experience is NOT required or even preferred. If you're good at this or can be, that's all we care about.

If you have specific questions, don't reply to the ad - Message us directly. We'll respond to your unique situation privately for you.

As always, race, ethnicity, country of origin, religious preference, gender ID, sexual orientation, education, height, weight, etc. don't make a bit of difference to us nor should they. Our fleet is diverse, and we're proud of that. Tap the button, drop by our lobby, call us or visit us the lacledecab website to download an application. Stay safe!

If you've ever wondered why local taxi commissions MANDATE driver training and place rules on drivers and companies, this article may be an eye opener for you. We're Amazon fans, but it appears we place a bit less emphasis on speed. No surprise, really - we're usually carrying precious human cargo. But just a reminder: Sometimes your driver isn't going as fast as he can, but he's going as fast as he will. And that's for everyone's benefit. Have a safe and enjoyable New Year's holiday, friends.

New documents and interviews reveal how time after time, the e-commerce giant put speed, profit, and explosive growth before public safety.
