CDL-A Local Roll-Off & End Dump Truck Driver — Memphis, TN

Run local construction and waste-hauling assignments from the Memphis yard. Daily work depends on project schedules, material demand and your equipment qualifications.

• Pick up and exchange roll-off containers at commercial and construction sites.
• Haul permitted construction debris to designated disposal or transfer facilities.
• Move sand, gravel, crushed stone and other approved aggregate in end dump equipment.
• Inspect hydraulic systems, hoists, tarps, tires and trailer connections before operation.
• Check load distribution and legal axle weights before leaving a yard or job site.
• Complete scale tickets, disposal receipts and customer delivery records.
• Coordinate site access, unloading delays and equipment problems with dispatch.

Hourly pay reflects assigned equipment, experience and qualifications. Overtime is paid at 1.5 times the regular rate for eligible hours worked over 40 in a workweek. Weekly and annual figures are estimates, not guaranteed earnings.

Illustrative earnings assume approximately 45–50 paid hours per week, depending on the hourly rate and actual overtime. Bonus schedule: $250 after 30 days, $250 after 90 days and $500 after 180 days, subject to the employer's written eligibility terms. Bonuses are separate from regular wages.

Most assignments are local and return to the yard or home the same day. Actual finish times depend on disposal queues, construction-site access, weather and the final scheduled pickup.

Equipment is selected according to the assignment and driver qualification. Newer units may include ELDs, GPS, backup cameras and collision-warning systems. Drivers complete pre-trip and post-trip inspections and report hydraulic leaks, worn securing components and other defects before continuing.

Memphis offers CDL-A opportunities across regional freight, intermodal, local delivery, waste collection and construction-material hauling. Roll-off and end dump drivers compete with other local commercial driving jobs that often emphasize home-daily schedules and overtime. Recent local listings show a broad pay range depending on vehicle type, experience and employer, making the guaranteed hourly rate and realistic weekly hours important comparison points. Construction hauling can provide repeat local work without long-haul trips, but earnings depend on site productivity, disposal wait times and seasonal demand. Experienced drivers who understand equipment limits and job-site safety can be especially valuable to vocational fleets.

Memphis sits at the junction of I-40 and I-55, with I-240 serving metro traffic and I-269 providing an outer connection. These corridors link construction sites, commercial development areas, material suppliers and disposal facilities across Shelby County and neighboring communities. Local roll-off work depends on container exchanges and approved waste destinations, while end dump assignments move bulk materials from supply yards to construction or roadwork sites. West Memphis, Bartlett, Millington, Collierville and Southaven can fall within practical dispatch coverage when customer schedules justify the trip. Rain, urban congestion and facility queues influence daily productivity, while warmer construction periods can increase demand for hauling capacity.
