Garbage truck driver here in San Diego. Get your CDL and these private haulers will train you. EDCO, Waste, and Reoublic drivers make over 100k a year.
@@anthonym744 Private fleet is when a company, NOT in the trucking business, have their own trucks to move their goods, instead of relying on trucking companies. So like Walmart/Sam's Club, UPS, USPS, Linde, etc.
I'm about to setup an interview with my local garbage company. I started doing otr, but its definitely no it driving cpm. I'd take the cut in experience to go ahead and get paid hourly frfr
Garbage man here we are at 41 a hour here in Chicago all the garbage companies are represented by the same union waste management Republic and all the private owned companies the 5yr contract we just signed will have us at 49 hr but the weather here is brutal 30 below snow ice in alleys and when you call in sick in the winter they look at you differently there is a shortage of drivers here as well as the country not many young people want to do this we are one man routes you drive push the and dump the dumpsters that are on four wheels behind apartment buildings or restaurants its impossible to do front load in chicago due to the electric power lines above you in every alley there is always garbage never been laid off in 35yrs make 120k or more yearly put 2kids through college you have to enjoy summer and fall here some winters drag into april we really catch it here in Chicago
Im a swim driver. I do roll off and front loader. Whenever the front loader guys take vacation. I came in making 30 per hr. And yeah there is a lot of hrs. But you dont feel the hrs , cus is a fun job to do.
Sounds fun & no stress/problems. Don't ever work hauling groceries for ALDI. They wrap the pallet once, so at every turn, you gotta slow down very slow, or else your pallets at the rear will spill all over inside the trailer. Then once you get to the store, store employees love the special pallet jack meant for drivers, so they'll use it from when the store is open till whenever you get there. Suggested to them to get 2, but no, only 1, while there's 3 other pallet jacks that they won't use, but we can't really use it inside the trailer, cuz it's too big. Only pays $26.xx/hr
Im just a helper at my company been doing this for 8 years i wont say specifically how much i make but it is over $18.50 a hour so im definitely trying to get my Class B CDL so i can get closer to $25 my state just has requirements now for a class which is 40 hour weeks and for multiple weeks and i just cant afford not to qork to get it not aure what to do at this point then keep doing what i am doing
Drug test every Friday pay check ✅. To all the drivers and they have to be supervised at least once a week for the amount of money they get, they have to be in check very often.
I been applying over and over for Republic services they keep denying me. I seen they hire people without the license I got everything oh well not meant to be
@@calidream9273 thanks ended up getting an interview directly for a city garbage truck going through the hiring process now seems like a job you can retire from while staying local
@lilvato88able working for the City might be better in the long run not as much hassle, only thing I'll say is they won't be as much overtime like for a regular waste service

Those trucks have air brakes so that's an endorsement!
Air brake is an endorsement
How do you not make it
Im planning on getting my Class A CDl, will i still be able to get class B work like garbage truck driver with the class A?
It's like the alphabet, once you get A, you can drive the rest to Z
I did this 35 years retired now 😁
@@jeraldford3494 I'm in my 35th year here in chicago for private company
Do Cassella use in-cabin cameras to spy on drivers?
I dont think air brakes is a endorsement
Well some people have air brake restriction but yeah the garbage trucks do pay at least it's local
It is thats why there is a separate test.
Air brakes is part of the cdl A, not the cdl b portion, only reason they say it
@@greyyb8860 it can also be part of CDL B you just take the test for air brakes if not you will have air brake restrictions
It is

I would try to reach out to a hiring manager or even go in person and drop off a resume to show you're really interested.
You be able to at least get an interview if u have a class B
