Company drivers performs the main function of Kodiak Trucking. The driver is responsible for transporting various types of aggregate materials from one location to another for several customers. We haul aggregate material and now have cement mixers. You can expect to be loading and unloading aggregate to key locations within and outside Bakersfield, CA.
