Commercial Laundry Systems Field Technician

A day in the life

You start from home, review your dispatch in the ticketing system, load the service van, and head to your first stop in the Northern Birmingham, AL market. One visit might be a hospital where a washer is faulting mid‑cycle; the next could be a fitness center with a dryer that won’t heat. You diagnose electrical and mechanical issues, install the right parts, and verify the fix.

Throughout the day, you keep customers informed, log your time, parts used, mileage, and fuel, and coordinate with the service manager, parts team, and vendors so everything runs smoothly. You’ll also pitch in with installation crews on equipment installs and deliveries when needed and wrap up the day by tidying tools and preparing for tomorrow.
