Company Overview
Perhaps we do something a bit odd (collecting discarded food scraps) when compared to other companies. But the job itself is not unique. In fact the job is the same in function picking stuff up and dropping stuff off as any other delivery driver position you might find.
People work at CompostNow because we give people the benefit of the doubt we strive for operational excellence and we treat people as adults. We hold high expectations of ourselves and one another. We choose to grind through with the right people rather than have it easier with people who don t share the same standards.
A quote from one of our Drivers on what the job is like daytoday: "After my first few training shifts I felt like I had a solid idea of what was expected of me and what I could expect to see out on route each day. Honestly the consistency of that has been great. There really arent that many wild card factors in my day to day experience. Some days can be draining but time moves quickly and I get to be outside for a good bit of it. Obviously that is less than ideal some days but overall its worth it. Ive gotten to see some really amazing sunrises. Ive got my routine going steady now. I drink my coffee and listen to my radio stations while I get ready for my route each morning and Im having a good time!"
Shifts start at 3 AM and end 810 hours later. This schedule isnt for everyone. Drivers love "knowing Im getting my work done while the city sleeps." It also means you get in and out faster without having to fight with other drivers on the road. You get to see the stars at night and the sunrise every morning. You get done early enough to get other things done before businesses close or school ends for the day.
