Delivery opportunities

Earn extra income

When you become a carrier for the Tri-City Herald, you'll deliver for just a few hours or less a day and earn up to a couple hundred dollars a month. Whether it's additional income for your child's college fund, cash for a family vacation, money for retirement or just those extra dollars to make ends meet, the money you earn as an independent newspaper carrier will help out in a variety of ways.

It's also an excellent source of income for children. With your route profit you'll be able to afford that new video game you've been wanting, save for college, buy a car, get new clothes and much, much more!!

Keep your regular job

And because the hours you'll be delivering are in the early morning, you can still work your regular job and have time for friends and children. Many of our carriers have full-time jobs. They enjoy using the morning hours as a time of reflection and preparation for the coming day.

Meeting people, get exercise

While some of our carriers enjoy the routes for the morning solitude, others say it's the people they service that make it satisfying. When you deliver a trusted product like the Tri-City Herald every day, newcomers become neighbors and neighbors become friends.

Become self-employed

As an independent contractor, you'll buy your newspapers at the wholesale price and resell them at the retail price. Your profit could be up to $600 a month!

Provide customer service

Many carriers receive tips from their customers for good service.

Opportunity for MORE CASH

The Tri-City Herald offers prizes, event tickets and CASH to carriers for signing up new subscribers.
