Jose began his career as a Van Operator in 2000 and joined Hilldrup in 2005. Since then, Jose has been recognized multiple times by United Van Lines as a Winner or Runner-Up for Van Operator of the Month. He was also honored by Hilldrup as our Van Operator of the Year for 2021 based on his outstanding Van Operator performance which included metrics related to quality, safety, claims, total miles driven and more.
