About the Role
City eWaste LLC is looking for a dependable full-time Driver to join our Franklin, TN team. In this role you will pick up electronic waste and recyclable materials from businesses, schools, and community drop-off events, transport them safely back to our facility, and help process what comes through the door. Driving is the core of the job, but there is regular down time between routes, and during those hours you will work alongside our warehouse crew sorting, staging, and breaking down incoming materials. If you like variety in your day, take pride in working safely, and want your work to keep usable materials out of landfills, this is a great fit.
Driving Responsibilities
- Run daily pickup and delivery routes for electronic waste and recyclable materials throughout Franklin and the surrounding Middle Tennessee area
- Load, secure, and unload items such as computers, monitors, printers, servers, batteries, and small appliances using proper lifting technique and equipment
- Complete pre-trip and post-trip vehicle inspections and report maintenance or safety concerns promptly
- Maintain accurate pickup manifests, weight tickets, chain-of-custody paperwork, and mileage logs
- Represent City eWaste professionally at customer sites and answer basic questions about what we accept and how material is handled
- Plan efficient routes, communicate with dispatch about delays, and keep the truck cab and cargo area clean and organized
- Follow all DOT, company, and site-specific safety rules, including handling requirements for batteries and other regulated items
Warehouse and Sorting Responsibilities
This is not a drive-only position. When you are not on the road, you will be on the floor with the rest of the team, and a meaningful share of a typical week is spent in the warehouse.
- Sort incoming electronics and materials by type, grade, and commodity into the correct bins, pallets, and gaylords
- Disassemble and separate components such as metals, plastics, circuit boards, cables, and batteries for downstream recycling
- Test, wipe, and stage reusable equipment for resale or donation according to our data-security procedures
- Weigh, label, shrink-wrap, and stage outbound pallets for shipment
- Keep the sorting area, dock, and yard clean, organized, and free of hazards
- Help with inventory counts and flag anything unusual, damaged, or potentially hazardous to a supervisor
Requirements
- High school diploma or GED
- Valid driver's license with a clean driving record; must pass a motor vehicle record check
- At least one year of commercial, box truck, or delivery driving experience
- 21 years of age or older for insurance purposes
- Able to repeatedly lift and carry up to 50 lbs, and up to 75 lbs with assistance, and to bend, stand, and walk for most of the shift
- Comfortable working in a warehouse environment with varying temperatures, noise, and dust
- Ability to read route sheets and complete written or tablet-based logs accurately
- Must pass a pre-employment background check and drug screen
- Reliable attendance and on-time arrival for scheduled routes
Desired Skills
- Experience in recycling, waste hauling, scrap, moving, or warehouse operations
- CDL Class B or a current DOT medical card, or willingness to obtain one
- Forklift or pallet jack experience, or willingness to become certified
- Basic familiarity with computers, IT hardware, or consumer electronics
- Comfort using a smartphone or tablet for routing, e-signatures, and manifests
- Friendly, customer-facing communication style and a professional appearance
- Self-starter who finds useful work during slow periods rather than waiting to be told
- Bilingual English/Spanish is a plus
Schedule and Work Environment
- Full-time, Monday through Friday, typically 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with occasional Saturday collection events
- Based out of our Franklin, TN facility; local routes with no overnight travel
- Split between time on the road and time in the warehouse, depending on daily route volume
- Personal protective equipment, gloves, and safety training provided
