  • Help Anywhere: Work flexibly in a small crew. Be willing to step out of the cab to assist with hand-rolling bins, cleaning up loose debris around enclosure areas, or general site maintenance.
  • Winter Work: Maintain consistent, full-time hours through the Winnipeg winter handling regular property waste removal and navigating snow-packed enclosure tracks.
  • Compliance: Perform mandatory daily pre-trip/post-trip circle check inspections and maintain accurate logbooks in strict accordance with the Manitoba Safety Fitness Certificate (SFC) program.
