A few weeks ago, the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) implemented a policy banning the loading of contractors using drivers with non-domiciled CDLs, aligning with evolving federal guidelines on immigration and transportation. Facilities were instructed not to load trailers hauled by such drivers as part of efforts to improve safety across a network of asset carriers and brokers handling local, regional, and cross-country work.
Within days, USPS reversed the ban, deeming the service and cost impacts too severe for an abrupt change. This highlighted the critical role non-domiciled drivers play in mail delivery reliability.
