CDL Driver - Rear Load

About the Role

The Commercial Rear/Side Load Driver is the frontline of our waste removal services, dedicated to safely and efficiently serving commercial customers. In this role, you will collect solid waste and recyclables from commercial buildings and transport them to post-collection facilities. Your work ensures that our clients' waste management needs are met with professionalism and care, maintaining the integrity of our collection routes and the cleanliness of our vehicles.

Day in the Life

Your day begins with a thorough pre-trip safety inspection of the truck and equipment, ensuring everything is ready for the route ahead. You will operate a commercial waste or recycling vehicle, utilizing side-load or rear-load mechanisms to collect materials while adhering to prescribed techniques that prevent mechanical failures. Throughout the day, you will manage assigned helpers if applicable, identify prohibited waste items, and maintain strict route quality standards. Communication is key; you will report any vehicle issues immediately and interact professionally with customers and the public. The role requires flexibility, as you may be asked to work overtime or attend safety and branch meetings to support continuous improvement.
