Job description
Wrench Your Way to the Top: Diesel Mechanic Wanted!
Tired of fixing the same boring commuter cars?
Welcome to GFL, where we play with the big toys. We’re talking massive front-loaders, high-pressure hydraulics, and enough torque to move a mountain. If you’re the kind of person who sees a complex engine problem and thinks, "Game on," then you’ve just found your new home.
At GFL (Green For Life), we aren't just "garbage men"—we’re the Green Team. We keep the wheels turning on a cleaner planet, and our Mechanics are the rockstars who make it happen.
The "Green" Perks
We don’t just offer a job; we offer a lifestyle upgrade :
Fat Paychecks: Competitive hourly rates + plenty of OT for those who want to hustle. Pay $33/hr. plus $2 work differential pay (pay can be increased based on experience and certifications/licenses)
🥾 Gear Up: We help pay for your boots and your tools because we want you in top form. $150 Tool Allowance and yearly boot allowance
Career Nitro: We don’t just promote; we propel. Want to lead a shop? We’ll show you the path.
🛡️ Total Coverage: Solid health, dental, and vision so you can take care of yourself and your family.
️ Stability: People always have trash. We always have work. You’ll never have to worry about a "slow season" again.
What You’ll Be Doing (The Fun Stuff)
Mechanical Surgery: Deep-diving into the guts of our fleet to diagnose and fix the "unfixable."
Hydraulic Heroics: Mastering the complex lifters and compactors that do the heavy lifting for the community.
Tech Wizardry: Using state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to talk to the trucks' brains.
Shop Camaraderie: Working in a high-energy shop where the coffee is hot, the music is loud, and your teammates have your back.
"If it’s got a turbo, a piston, or a massive hydraulic ram, you’re the one we trust to keep it humming."
What We’re Looking For
A Grease Monkey with a Brain: You know your way around a diesel engine better than your own living room.
Tool Collector: You’ve got a toolbox that’s your pride and joy.
Problem Solver: You don’t just swap parts; you figure out why they broke.
CDL Aspirations: If you have a Class A or B, awesome! If not, we’ll help you get the credentials to drive the beasts you build.
Ready to Join the Green Revolution?
Don’t let your talent go to waste in a boring shop. Come to GFL and be the backbone of your community.
