노조는 1903 년 Team Drivers International Union (1899)이 Teamsters National Union (1902)과 합병되었을 때 형성되었습니다. 말이 끄는 차량을 사용하는 현지 배달원은 1930 년대까지 도시 간 트럭 운전사에 의해 대체 될 때까지 핵심 멤버십을 유지했습니다. 1907 년부터 1952 년까지이 연합은 1907 년 40,000 명에서 1950 년까지 1,000,000 명 이상으로 회원을 늘린 Daniel J. Tobin이 이끄는 노동 조합을 이끌었다. 1940 년까지는 전국 최대의 노동 조합이되었다. 데이브 벡 (1952 ~ 57) 대통령과 제임스 호파 (1957–71)은 팀 스터를 전국적인화물 운송 계약을 협상 할 수있는 강력한 중앙 집중식 조합으로 만들었다. 전 대통령의 아들 인 Ron Carey (1992 ~ 99)와 James P. Hoffa (1999 ~)는 직업 안보와 가족 문제에 중점을 두었다.

The union’s size, along with the threat of halting shipments of essential goods, gave the Teamsters great bargaining power. But the union’s magnitude also provided some officials with opportunities for violently pressuring small employers or profiting, in consort with organized crime, from the manipulation of union pension funds. In the wake of corruption disclosures implicating Teamster leadership, the American Federation of Labor–Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL–CIO) expelled the union in 1957—after almost 60 years of membership in the AFL.

Between 1957 and 1988, three of the Teamsters’ presidents—Beck, the elder Hoffa, and Roy L. Williams—were convicted of various crimes and sentenced to prison terms. After his release from prison, Hoffa disappeared in 1975; many believe he was killed by members of organized crime. The Teamsters Union was readmitted to the AFL–CIO in 1987. In 1988 the Justice Department filed a civil racketeering suit against the union, but the suit was settled out of court in 1989. In 1992, given their first chance to directly elect their national leaders, members chose as president Carey, the candidate supported by the reformist group Teamsters for a Democratic Union. While Teamster representation of truck drivers declined with the growth of nonunion trucking companies in the 1980s, the union gained many new members through its efforts to organize workers in clerical, service, and technology occupations.

In 1997 the Teamsters galvanized media attention and public support when their strike against United Parcel Service (UPS) stopped the delivery of thousands of packages worldwide. The strike centred on the extensive use of part-time employees by UPS. In the agreement negotiated with UPS, the Teamsters won 10,000 new full-time jobs over the course of the five-year contract. In later years the Teamsters became increasingly dissatisfied with the AFL-CIO, especially its inability to increase union membership. In 2005 the Teamsters disaffiliated from the AFL-CIO and, with several other unions, helped establish the Change to Win coalition.
