Job Description Job Description Description: Be the Backbone of Beacon's Transportation Team as a CDL-A Truck Driver. You're at your best when the work is clear, the expectations are defined, and the day runs on a predictable rhythm. You take pride in doing the job right the first time, following procedures, and keeping your equipment in top shape. You don't need constant direction or hype to stay motivated, you value consistency, safety, and being counted on. At Beacon Recycling, our Truck Drivers are trusted professionals who keep our operation moving safely and reliably every day. As a CDL-A Truck Driver, your day starts early and follows a structured routine. You'll operate roll-off, lugger, and double roll-off trailers to service customer accounts throughout West Michigan, safely transporting scrap metal between customer sites and Beacon yards. You'll focus on executing each run accurately, following DOT requirements, maintaining your truck, and representing Beacon with professionalism at every stop. This role rewards drivers who are patient, methodical, and attentive to detail, people who prefer doing solid work over cutting corners. This position is well-suited for someone who values stability and clear processes. Routes, expectations, and safety procedures are established so you can focus on execution. While the work environment involves interactions with customers and the yard teams, communication is straightforward and task-focused. Success in this role comes from consistency, reliability, and maintaining a calm, steady approach, even during long days or challenging Michigan weather conditions. Established in 1999, Beacon Recycling is a family-owned company headquartered in Muskegon, Michigan, with additional locations in Grand Rapids and Traverse City. We are committed to safety, operational excellence, and treating our drivers with respect. In 2023, Beacon invested $17.5 million to expand recycling infrastructure, including a state-of-the-art metal shredder, reinforcing our long-term stability and growth in West Michigan. If you're a CDL driver who prefers a structured day, values safety and routine, and takes pride in being dependable, this is a role where you can build a long-term career. We're not looking for flashy, we're looking for steady, reliable professionals who want to do good work and go home knowing they made the operation run smoother. Apply today and drive for a company that values consistency, safety, and professionalism.
