About the Role
The Commercial Driver plays a vital role in our waste management operations, ensuring the safe and efficient collection of refuse for our customers. This position is dedicated to maintaining high standards of safety, regulatory compliance, and customer service while operating heavy collection trucks along designated routes.
Day in the Life
Your day begins with a thorough pre-operation inspection of the vehicle, checking tire pressure, fluid levels, safety equipment, and controls to ensure everything is in proper working order. You will then navigate your assigned route, reading route sheets and maps to service each customer promptly and professionally.
While operating the truck, you will manage manual and automatic controls to lift, load, and compact refuse, adhering strictly to company safety policies. A key part of your responsibility involves monitoring waste for unacceptable materials and identifying unsatisfactory containers. You will also maintain the vehicle's condition throughout the day, cleaning the packer blade and truck body as needed to minimize downtime.
Beyond driving, you will interact courteously with customers, dispatchers, and co-workers, ensuring a professional experience for everyone you encounter. The role requires constant attention to detail, from completing daily vehicle condition reports to adhering to productivity standards that keep our operations running smoothly.
Safety and Compliance
Safety is the foundation of this role. You are responsible for ensuring the vehicle meets all company, state, and federal regulations at all times. This includes reporting any safety issues immediately and following all established safety policies to prevent accidents and ensure the well-being of yourself and the community.
