Classification 1101.
1101-04 Automobile delivery or repossessing
Applies to establishments engaged in delivering or
repossessing individual automobiles for others. Generally, a
client will contact the service company and arrange for a car
to be delivered to a specific destination or request that a
car of which they (client) is the legal owner, be repossessed
and delivered to a specific location. In either case, a
driver, not a motorized transportation service, does the
delivery. Duties of employees subject to this classification
are generally limited to unlocking vehicles and driving. It
is common on long distance deliveries for the service company
to use more than one driver. This classification also applies
to drivers of sound trucks.
This classification excludes operation of tractor/trailer
combinations to transport vehicles which is to be reported
separately in classification 1102 and the use of a tow truck
which is to be reported separately in classification 1109.

distributors, N.O.C.
Applies to employees of retail and wholesale stores
engaged in inter-store delivery, customer merchandise delivery
when excluded from the store classification, and delivery not
covered by another classification (N.O.C.). Employees subject
to this classification are generally involved in loading and
unloading delivery vans or trucks and driving from store to
store, or from a store to a customer's location. Drivers may
or may not have designated routes or delivery areas. This
classification is not applicable to establishments engaged in
general trucking services which are to be reported separately
in classification 1102. Classification 1101 is
distinguishable from delivery operations reported in
classification 1102 in that businesses covered by
classification 1102 generally do not own the merchandise they
are transporting.
1101-09 Parcel delivery companies for delivery of small
parcels

small parcels for others. Establishments subject to this
classification may offer overnight express services, but
usually do not deliver packages that exceed 150 pounds. Work

limited to, driving, loading and unloading delivery vehicles.
This classification also applies to contract mail delivery
route drivers and contract hauling of mail between post
offices.

1101-17 Driver delivery sales, N.O.C.
Applies to establishments engaged in route sales of a
wide variety of merchandise not covered by another
classification (N.O.C.), including, but not limited to, hand
tools, automotive supply, and household items. Sales
personnel deliver products, show samples and solicit further
orders. They may also call on new customers along their
route. The classification also applies to establishments or
employees known as merchandisers who deliver products to their
customer's place of business then perform related
merchandising functions such as taking inventory of goods on
hand, restocking, reordering, removing outdated or damaged
merchandise from shelves or the premises, and/or assembling
temporary displays which are usually made of lightweight
material such as cardboard or plastic and used for promotional
or seasonal goods. These merchandisers often deal in products
such as, but not limited to, greeting cards, over-the-counter
medications, and grooming products.
This classification excludes employees of establishments
who provide merchandising services, but who do not deliver
products to the customer's place of business, who may be
reported separately in classification 0607; and establishments
engaged in the set up or removal of advertising or merchandise
displays that involve more than incidental assembly of
seasonal or promotional exhibits which are to be reported
separately in classification 0607.
Special note: The distinguishing factor between
merchandising employees who are to be reported in
classification 1101-17 and those who may be reported in
classification 0607 is the delivery of products to the
customer's place of business. Any employee who delivers
merchandise to the customer's place of business is to be
reported in classification 1101.
