Interstate Waste Services (IWS) is the most progressive and innovative provider of solid waste and recycling services in the greater New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut markets, featuring a rail-served landfill in Ohio. Founded in 1998, IWS has grown through the acquisition of many family-owned businesses, which remain integral parts of the team today. We proudly combine the resources of a large corporation with the values and care of a family-run business.
IWS is committed to delivering high-quality waste, recycling, and environmental services while prioritizing the safety of our employees, customers, and communities. We cater to a diverse range of industrial, medical, and commercial/residential customers.
This position supports our operations in a dynamic outdoor environment. You will be an essential part of the team, performing general construction activities such as shoveling, lifting, and pulling. Your day will involve managing site logistics, including traffic control by guiding vehicles and equipment to appropriate areas and placing signs and cones for vehicle direction.
Communication is key in this role; you will interact effectively with drivers, employees, and management via handheld radios and CBs. Additional responsibilities include performing site clean-ups, cleaning vehicles and equipment as needed, fueling vehicles and equipment, and setting up or securing wind fences and landfill coverings. You may also be required to drive employees to their work stations as needed. Throughout your shift, you will follow OSHA safety standards and wear all required personal protective equipment (PPE).
