About the Role
Front-End Drivers are the backbone of our waste and recycling operations, operating front-end trucks to service multi-family residential and commercial routes. In this role, you will fulfill customer contracts by collecting solid waste and recyclables, transporting them to appropriate stations, landfills, or drop-off locations. The position requires servicing multiple customers daily along assigned routes, ensuring efficient and reliable service.
Day in the Life
Your day begins with a pre-trip inspection to ensure the truck is in safe working order. You will navigate designated routes using a key map and GPS, maneuvering the truck into tight clearance spaces and backing up distances of up to 120 feet. The role involves physically engaging with the collection process: opening container enclosures, rolling 3-4-yard cans into position, and operating the truck's mechanical equipment to dump loads.
Throughout the shift, you will maintain a clean environment by removing loose trash from the truck and surrounding areas. You will also serve as the face of the company, interacting courteously with customers and the public to answer questions or address requests. The role requires constant vigilance to detect loose debris and ensure safety standards are met, including monitoring for hazardous materials like gasoline. The position is primarily outdoor work, often in varying weather conditions, with sitting required for approximately 75% of the time while driving.
