Application Question(s):
• Please note: By answering YES to these screening questions, you acknowledge and agree that your responses may be used as part of your official onboarding acknowledgment and service agreement if selected and hired for services.
• Do you have a valid driver’s license?
• What type of vehicle do you drive? (Year, Make, and Model)

• Are you comfortable delivering 10–20 flower stops per day in Louisville? (Depending on volume)
• 21. Do you understand that Louisville routes are local-only routes, while Lexington routes require driving outside the Louisville area?
22. Lexington drivers are paid more per stop plus receive a daily gas stipend because of the additional driving distance.
Which routes are you interested in?
• Louisville only
• Lexington only
• Both Louisville and Lexington
• Do you understand this is a 1099 contractor position using your own personal vehicle, meaning you are responsible for your own gas, maintenance, and operating expenses?
• Please understand this is a professional delivery role. These flowers may be going to birthdays, loved ones, funeral homes, gravesites, or businesses, so reliability and professionalism are very important.
We schedule routes based on the availability you provide. If you tell us you’re available certain days/times, we fully expect commitment to that schedule. Schedule changes are fine with advance notice, but not during the same week.
With that being said, what is a realistic and consistent schedule you can commit to?
• Do you fully understand and agree that due to the nature of this job — including deliveries to funeral homes, gravesites, businesses, and special occasions — reliability is critical? If you quit mid-route or fail to complete your assigned route, any recovery or coverage costs may be deducted from future earnings and could exceed your original payout. We strongly recommend all drivers have a trained backup available for emergencies. This is a commitment-based role, and dependability is mandatory. Please answer YES only if you fully understand and agree to these terms.
• What would make you a great fit for this position, and what do you currently do for work at this time?
• Do you fully understand that we are looking for professional, positive, and customer-friendly drivers? Since you will be delivering to homes and businesses, professionalism, good attitude, and personal hygiene matter. We are not looking for difficult or unprofessional individuals. Also, if you smoke cigarettes, marijuana, or any substances inside your vehicle, please do not apply, as flowers and deliveries must be kept clean and odor-free.
Please answer YES only if you fully understand and agree.
• This will not automatically disqualify you, but do you have any criminal history or background we should be aware of? Please be honest, as background checks may be conducted. Failure to disclose information that later appears on a background check may result in immediate termination of services if hired.
• Please understand that flower pickups will be in the downtown Louisville, Kentucky area, so punctuality is very important. If hired, we ask that drivers be prepared to start within 1–2 days of being offered the position. Would that be acceptable for you?
• Please understand that we prefer paying drivers through Venmo or Cash App. Weekly payouts are standard, but there may be situations where another driver pays you directly to cover a route. If you do not currently have Venmo or Cash App, would you be willing to create one if hired?
• Final Acknowledgment: Do you fully understand and agree that this is a professional 1099 contractor position requiring reliability, communication, professionalism, schedule commitment, and personal responsibility for route completion? If selected for services, your responses to these screening questions may be used as part of your official onboarding acknowledgment and contractor agreement.
Please answer YES only if you fully understand and agree.
