Royal Oak Storage

Front End / Roll-Off CDL DriverJob Description
We are a full-service recycler and broker with global reach. While sluggish markets have weeded out the smaller recyclers, Royal Oak Recycling has flourished, acquiring smaller operations and making strategic partnerships. In just three years, we’ve doubled our volume, handling more than 55,000 tons of material of all types each month. We service customers throughout the United States and Canada, with an emphasis on our facilities and source-segregated materials across the Great Lakes region and industrial Midwest acting as hubs for brokers, rubbish haulers, and independent recyclers.
We offer office, business, retail, and industrial recycling services, including pickups, custom product destruction, plant-based document shredding, equipment financing, and niche services like bale route pickup and plastic processing. We thrive on long-term relationships by being flexible partners, open to new opportunities, finding the best value, and guaranteeing transparent service and timely payment.

Position Summary
Royal Oak Recycling is seeking an experienced Front End / Roll-Off CDL Driver to safely and efficiently operate commercial trucks used to collect, transport, and deliver recyclable materials and other commodities.
This is a versatile driving position that will primarily operate front-load and roll-off trucks, servicing commercial, retail, industrial, and recycling customers. The driver will be responsible for safely picking up, transporting, positioning, and unloading containers while providing professional customer service and maintaining accurate route documentation.
