The Messenger-Inquirer has over 100 newspaper carrier routes in Owensboro with over 50 additional motor routes in our circulation area. The Circulation Department actively accepts applications for existing and future carrier opportunities.
All carriers are independent contractors and post a performance bond.
Highly responsible individuals who will dedicate themselves to providing superior customer service and actively work to increase subscription sales are urged to apply. Carrier routes provide a great opportunity to operate a route as an independent business. Many carriers find managing a route both rewarding financially and a great way to supplement income on a part time basis. Newspaper route sizes begin with 50 subscribers. The Press department runs 4 units of a double wide Goss Metro offset press to print the Messenger-Inquirer daily newspaper and its special sections.
