Are you looking for a rewarding, part-time career where you can make a profound difference in a child's life?
Storer Transportation is seeking compassionate and reliable individuals to join our family in Hayward as Special Needs School Bus Drivers. In this role, you are more than a driver; you are a trusted friend, a source of comfort, and the first and last smile a special needs student sees on their school day. You are the key to ensuring they have safe and positive access to their education.
The Storer Difference: A 70-Year Mission of Care
For over 70 years, Storer hasn't just been in the transportation business; we've been in the caring business. Our company was founded in 1952 for one specific reason: to provide safe, compassionate transportation for special needs students when no one else would. That mission is the heart of our company and is stronger than ever today. When you drive for us, you’re part of a proud legacy.
- A Mission-Driven Start: Our very first contract was to ensure 13 special needs children could get to school safely. That commitment to serving the most vulnerable students has never wavered.
- Pioneers in Compassion: We are the company that engineered California's first-ever wheelchair-accessible bus in 1967, setting the standard for inclusive transportation.
- Award-Winning Excellence: Our commitment to safety and service was recently recognized on a national level, earning us the 2024 "School Bus Contractor of the Year" award—our 4th national award.
- A True Family Company: Now led by the 3rd and 4th generations, we've remained a family company that treats our drivers with the respect and support that a corporation can't match.
