By leveraging technology, such as their proprietary mobile application, Valet Living facilitates efficient operations and transparent communication for its team members. The company also emphasizes employee safety and provides necessary equipment to support a safe working environment.

This part-time position for a Trash Collector, also referred to as a Service Valet, offers individuals an active role within apartment communities, helping to maintain cleanliness and ensure a welcoming atmosphere for residents. The role specifically requires owning a personal and reliable open-bed pickup truck or a vehicle equipped with a trailer to transport trash and recycling bags efficiently from residents' doorsteps to an on-site trash compactor. This job is hands-on and physically engaging, involving walking, climbing stairs, and working outdoors in various weather conditions. It does not include heavy lifting of bulk items, off-site driving, or dumping duties, making it a manageable commitment for those seeking an active, part-time schedule.

Part-time Trash Collectors typically work around 10 to 15 hours per week, primarily during daytime shifts from Sunday to Thursday, starting at 8:00 AM, although some locations may offer later start times. This flexibility makes it ideal for individuals looking for supplementary income while maintaining other commitments. The pay rate varies depending on the role; drivers with trucks or trailers earn $18 per hour, while helpers receive $16 per hour, providing competitive compensation for part-time work.

In this role, employees utilize a company mobile app to log service details, including times of arrival and departure, tracking activities, and capturing photos to document compliance or non-compliance situations. This integration of technology supports accountability and helps in delivering consistent service quality. Furthermore, the company fosters career growth by offering opportunities for advancement into leadership positions, encouraging long-term development within the organization.

Valet Living places a high value on safety and community, ensuring workers are equipped with gloves, vests, and other necessary gear to perform their jobs safely. Additional benefits such as fast pay through DailyPay, referral bonuses, and close-to-home assignments enhance the job’s appeal. For candidates who enjoy staying active, this role provides an excellent way to combine physical activity with earning potential, all within a supportive and inclusive team environment. The company also maintains a commitment to providing reasonable accommodations to individuals with disabilities, reinforcing their dedication to an accessible and fair hiring process.

Overall, this position is a compelling option for motivated individuals aged 18 and over who have reliable transportation, a valid driver’s license, and the physical capability to perform the duties required. It offers a chance to be part of a company that values hard work, reliability, and a positive contribution to the community. Interested applicants are encouraged to apply as the application window remains open, reflecting the company's ongoing pursuit of dedicated team members ready to make a meaningful impact.
