Driver Roll Off

Job Summary

Drivers operate heavy‑duty trucks with front, side, or rear‑end load lift attachments depending on the line of business they operate in and the type of truck they operate. Drivers transport material to a disposal, transfer, or recycle facility when trucks reach legal load capacity. Commercial Drivers provide pick‑up service of containers filled with waste or recyclable material, sometimes weighing over 1,000 pounds and requiring maneuvering of wheeled containers onto a pick‑up stage.

Commercial Drivers navigate high‑traffic and congested roadways, driveways, alleyways, and lots, and must perform highly skilled backing maneuvers. Residential Drivers collect residential household waste or recyclable material and must safely maneuver vehicles in residential environments, navigating similar traffic conditions. Roll‑off Drivers prepare, load, and transport large mobile open‑top and compactor containers from customer locations, navigate driveways and alleyways, and may operate in tight overhead environments on industrial routes, again requiring skilled backing.
