Residential/Recycle Drivers are responsible for the collection and hand loading of residential waste/recyclables as well as the transporting of this waste/recyclables by a front-load or rear-load truck to a transfer station, landfill site, or a materials recycling facility. They must constantly lift, push, and pull receptacles that weigh from 50 to 75 pounds as part of their rigorous daily routine. Often, these waste receptacles have no wheels or handles for maneuverability, and the driver must have the physical strength to adjust accordingly. This physically strenuous position involves mounting and dismounting the truck between 800 and 1000 times every shift. In addition to these duties, vehicle inspection is required.

Residential/Recycle Drivers are also responsible for communicating professionally with customers, dispatch, and our customer service department at all times. WM drivers must have clean driving records and complete reports and logs on a daily basis.
