CDL Swing Driver

GFL Environmental Inc. · West Point, VA · 3 days ago
ManagementFull-time

About the Role

We aren't looking for just any driver; we are looking for a versatile waste industry professional. As a Swing Driver, you are the "utility player" of our fleet. You don't just stick to one route or one truck type. Your ability to jump between Front-End, Roll-Off, and Residential units makes you one of the most valuable assets on our team. If you thrive on variety, know the ins and outs of different collection methods, and enjoy a role where no two days are exactly the same, this is your next career move.

What You’ll Do

  • Master the Fleet: Safely operate a variety of vehicles, including Front-End loaders, Roll-Offs, and Residential trucks (manual and automatic).
  • Expert Navigation: Step in and execute various routes seamlessly, ensuring our customers receive consistent, high-quality service even when their regular driver is away.
  • Site Safety Leadership: Perform rigorous pre- and post-trip inspections. You know these trucks better than anyone—you’ll identify mechanical issues early and communicate them clearly to the shop.
  • Operational Excellence: Manage helpers (where applicable) and maintain professional interactions with customers at landfills, MRFs, and transfer stations.
  • Mentorship: Use your deep industry knowledge to help train newer drivers and provide feedback on route observations to improve efficiency.

What You Bring To The Table

  • The CDL "Toolbox": A valid Class A or B Commercial Driver’s License with a clean driving record.
  • Line of Business (LOB) Versatility: At least 1 year of commercial driving experience (preferably in multiple waste sectors like Front-End or Roll-Off).
  • Technical Skill: The ability to maneuver large equipment into tight spots and back distances of 120+ feet using mirrors alone.
  • Waste IQ: You can spot "unacceptable waste" (hazmat/flammables) from a mile away and know how to handle it according to company policy.
  • Physical Stamina: Ready to be in and out of the cab, lifting up to 50 lbs repetitively, and working in all-weather conditions.

Why Join Us?

  • Stability: Waste services are essential. We offer year-round work and consistent hours.
  • Professional Growth: We value drivers who understand the whole business. Your "Swing" experience is a fast track to leadership and trainer roles.
  • Modern Safety Culture: We provide all necessary PPE and maintain a safety-first culture where your voice and your inspections matter.
