Can you run yellow iron?

Norwalk is a straight ahead transfer station on Meadow Street. Trucks in, material staged, trailers out. The operator controls how fast that cycle turns.

  • Walk the machine every day, catch leaks, wear, and damage before they turn into downtime
  • Work safely around live truck traffic, spotters, and customers
  • Keep the floor moving so trucks turn fast and the site stays ahead of volume

What we are looking for:

  • Real seat time on excavators, dozers, loaders, or skid steers. Transfer station, landfill, scrap, demolition, or heavy civil all count
  • Comfortable operating in tight quarters around people and moving trucks
  • Solid safety habits and clean operating technique, you take care of the iron
  • A short hands on equipment evaluation is part of the hiring process, so come ready to run
  • Diesel or heavy equipment repair knowledge is a plus, not a requirement
  • No CDL required
