CDL Truck Driver PTO

Shift

Monday - Friday 5am start time

Drivers operate heavy‑weight trucks with front, side, or rear‑end load‑lift attachments dependent on the line of business they are operating. They transport material to a disposal, transfer, or recycle facility when trucks reach legal load capacity. Commercial Drivers provide the pick‑up service of containers filled with waste or recyclable material. Containers may weigh in excess of 1,000 pounds and may require drivers to maneuver wheeled containers to a pick‑up stage area.

They navigate high‑traffic and congested roadways, driveways, alleyways, and lots, with highly skilled backing maneuvers essential for success. Residential Drivers collect residential household waste or recyclable material, safely maneuvering vehicles in residential environments and navigating congested roads, driveways, and alleyways. Roll‑off Drivers prepare, load, and transport large mobile open‑top and compactor containers from customer locations, navigating driveways, alleyways, lots, and high‑traffic roadways and may operate in tight overhead environments while on industrial routes, again requiring highly skilled backing maneuvers.
