Job Description

Valet Living is a leading service provider focused on enhancing the living experience in apartment communities across the United States. With a strong commitment to maintaining clean, welcoming environments, Valet Living specializes in providing high-quality residential services such as trash and recycling collection through its team of dedicated Service Valets. The company places high value on reliability, integrity, and community impact, ensuring residents enjoy a superior quality of life in their homes. Known for innovative use of technology, Valet Living equips its employees with advanced tools, like a mobile app for service logging, which streamlines operations and enhances communication between staff and management.

This position is for a part-time Trash Collector, also known as a Service Valet, who will play a vital role in keeping apartment communities clean. The role involves collecting trash and recycling bags placed at residents' doorsteps and transporting them to the on-site trash compactor using the employee's personal open-bed pickup truck or vehicle with a trailer. Unlike traditional trash collecting jobs, this role does not require heavy lifting of bulk items, off-site driving, or dumping, making it a hands-on, manageable task suited for those seeking a physically active part-time job.

Trash Collectors work predominantly in the evenings, with shifts typically starting between 7:00 and 8:00 PM from Sunday through Thursday. The schedule is designed to offer flexibility and convenience, making it an excellent opportunity for individuals looking to earn extra income without interfering with their day commitments. This position averages 10 to 15+ hours per week, and assignments are generally close to the employee's home to reduce commute times and increase job satisfaction.

The job requires physical stamina for tasks such as walking long distances, climbing stairs, and working outdoors in various weather conditions. Employees must be comfortable carrying loads up to 50 lbs and handling bagged trash and waste safely. Since safety is a priority, Valet Living provides gloves, vests, and additional gear to protect workers while they perform their duties.

Candidates must meet certain requirements to be considered for this role, including being at least 18 years old, possessing a valid driver's license and auto insurance (listing the employee as a covered driver), owning reliable transportation like an open-bed pickup truck or vehicle with trailer, and having a smartphone with a data plan to use the company’s mobile app for logging service details. Additionally, authorized work status in the U.S. is mandatory, with proof required upon hire.

Benefits of working as a Service Valet with Valet Living include competitive hourly wages ranging from $15 to $18, access to daily pay through the DailyPay platform, opportunities for career growth into leadership roles, referral bonuses for bringing in new team members, and a safe working environment supported by company-provided protective equipment. Employees also enjoy the active nature of the job, which helps keep them physically fit while earning.

Valet Living emphasizes diversity and inclusion in all of its employment practices. The company is an equal opportunity employer supporting individuals of all backgrounds and abilities, committed to providing reasonable accommodations during the hiring process to ensure equal access. Through its ongoing commitment to employee well-being, professional development, and community service, Valet Living offers a rewarding part-time employment experience that balances flexibility, fair compensation, and meaningful work.
