CDL Driver- Residential Rearload

Overview

Drivers operate heavy‑duty trucks with front, side, or rear‑end load lift attachments dependent on the line of business and the type of truck. Drivers will transport material to disposal, transfer, or recycle facilities when trucks reach legal load capacity. Commercial drivers provide pick‑up service of containers filled with waste or recyclable material, often weighing over 1,000 pounds and requiring manipulation of wheeled containers to a pick‑up stage area.

They navigate high‑traffic, congested roadways, driveways, alleyways, and lots, and must execute highly skilled backing maneuvers. Residential drivers collect household waste or recyclable material, safely maneuvering vehicles in residential environments. 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, often in tight overhead environments.
