CDL Truck Driver Commercial PTO

Job Summary

Drivers operate heavy‑duty trucks equipped with front, side, or rear‑end load lift attachments depending on the line of business and the type of truck. Drivers transport material to a disposal, transfer, or recycle facility when trucks reach legal load capacity.

Commercial Drivers provide pick‑up service for containers filled with waste or recyclable material. Containers may weigh in excess of 1,000 pounds and occasionally require drivers to maneuver wheeled containers onto a pick‑up stage area. Commercial Drivers navigate high‑traffic and congested roadways, driveways, alleyways, and lots, and must perform highly skilled backing maneuvers to complete the job.

Residential Drivers collect residential household waste or recyclable material and must safely navigate vehicles in residential environments, including high‑traffic and congested roadways, driveways, alleyways, and lots, again requiring advanced backing skills.

Roll‑off Drivers prepare, load, and transport large mobile open‑top and compactor containers from customer locations. They navigate driveways, alleyways, lots, and high‑traffic roadways, and may operate in tight overhead environments while on industrial routes, necessitating precise backing maneuvers.
