Grease Trap Route Driver (CDL B, Night Shift, $26+ / hr)
Location: Atlanta, GA
Schedule: Night Shift / Early Morning (Route-Based)
Pay: $26hr based on experience + overtime + bonuses
This is not an entry-level CDL job.
We are hiring experienced route drivers who can work independently at night, manage customers professionally, and handle physical, hands-on service work without supervision.
If you’ve run pumper/vacuum trucks, septic, grease, or similar service routes, you will be a strong fit.
What You’ll Actually Be Doing
- Run a set route at night, servicing restaurants, schools, and commercial facilities
- Operate a vacuum/pumper truck to service grease traps and interceptors
- Perform hands-on pumping, scraping, and wash-down work (this is not just driving)
- Work independently with minimal supervision
- Navigate tight spaces, back into locations, and manage site conditions safely
- Complete basic paperwork and route tickets accurately
- Maintain your truck, equipment, and work area
What We’re Looking For (Non-Negotiable)
- 2+ years CDL driving experience (route or service-based preferred)
- Experience with vacuum trucks, septic, grease, or liquid waste strongly preferred
- Valid Class B CDL with Tanker Endorsement
- Comfort working nights / early mornings consistently
- Physically capable of demanding, dirty work (lifting, pulling, climbing, confined access points)
- Self-starter, you will not be micromanaged
- Clean MVR and ability to pass drug screen and physical
What Will Make You Stand Out
- Prior grease trap, septic, or environmental services experience
- Experience working alone on routes
- Strong backing skills and urban driving experience
- Reliable attendance, no call-outs, no excuses
Compensation & Benefits
- Starting Pay $26hr depending on experience
- Overtime available weekly
- Weekly pay
- Quarterly and annual bonus opportunities
- Full benefits: medical, dental, vision, 401(k) match
- PTO + paid holidays
- Referral bonuses
Reality of the Job (Read Before Applying)
- This is dirty, physical work, not a “sit and drive” position
- You will work nights and early mornings consistently
- You will be expected to work independently and solve problems in the field
Who Should Apply
- Drivers tired of OTR who want local, consistent routes
- Operators with septic, grease, vacuum truck, or industrial service experience
- CDL drivers who want steady work + overtime + autonomy
Who Should NOT Apply
- Entry-level CDL holders
- Candidates without relevant work history
- Candidates unwilling to work nights or do physical labor
