About The Position

Valet Living is hiring part-time Doorstep Trash Collection Specialists, also called Service Valets, to collect bagged trash and cardboard recycling from residents’ apartment doorsteps and transport it to the on-site compactor.

This is an active, outdoor role involving walking apartment communities, climbing stairs, and working around bagged waste in varied weather. The position offers a consistent evening schedule, typically 10–15 or more hours per week, with most schedules running Sunday through Thursday and starting after 7:00 or 8:00 PM. The posted truck pay rate is $23 per hour. Gloves, safety vests, and equipment are provided. The company describes opportunities for career growth, including promotion from Service Valet to Area Leader.
