About the Role

They transport waste or recyclable containers—often weighing over 1,000 pounds—to disposal, transfer, or recycling facilities, and must perform highly skilled backing maneuvers in congested environments. Residential drivers focus on household waste collection, while roll‑off drivers handle large open‑top containers on industrial routes. Key duties include operating the vehicle in compliance with WM safety rules, OSHA, DOT, and all applicable laws, and completing pre‑ and post‑trip inspections with DVIR documentation. Drivers must report unsafe conditions, incidents, or service interruptions to the Operations Manager or Dispatch, attend required trainings, and work with management to improve route efficiency. They also ensure sites are left clean after dumping receptacles and complete end‑of‑day paperwork. • Operate heavy‑duty trucks with load lift attachments and perform skilled backing maneuvers. • Transport waste or recyclable containers to disposal, transfer, or recycling facilities. • Conduct pre‑ and post‑trip vehicle inspections and complete DVIR reports. • Follow all WM safety, OSHA, DOT, and applicable legal requirements; report unsafe conditions immediately. • Communicate customer requests and service interruptions to Operations Manager or Dispatch. • Ensure sites are left clean by fully dumping receptacles and removing debris. • Adhere to assigned routes, complete end‑of‑day documentation, and assist fellow drivers as needed.
