NYC Teamsters Local 817 is the International Brotherhood of Teamsters local representing drivers, transportation coordinators, and picture car crew working on film and television productions in New York City and the surrounding metropolitan area.
Productions shooting in New York on signatory agreements must use Local 817 members for all covered transportation and picture car work, and vehicle owners hired by productions under Local 817 jurisdiction should understand the union's rules around vehicle use, hours, and compensation.
