Job Description
Part Time Evening Trash Collector – Valet Trash Porter | Asheville, NC
Got a pickup truck and a few free hours in the evening? Earn extra cash picking up bagged trash at apartment communities around Asheville, NC. No experience needed, no boss looking over your shoulder, and you're done in a couple of hours, so it fits around a day job, school or family. This evening job pays $35 to $70 per night.
What makes this side hustle different:
- Quick shifts, real pay – routes average about 45 minutes to 2 hours
- A schedule you can plan around – Sunday starts at 6 PM and Monday through Thursday start at 7 PM, with some Friday and Saturday 6 PM nights available, until your route is complete
- Paid training – no prior experience needed to start
- Paid holidays and a clear path to advancement for reliable porters
- Work solo – no register, no customers, no supervisor over your shoulder
A night on the route:
Each evening, you'll arrive at your assigned apartment community and collect bagged trash and recycling that residents set outside their doors. Expect plenty of stairs and steps - this is an active, on-your-feet role. You'll load the bags into the bed of your truck, drive them to the property's compactor or dumpsters, and head home. Simple, repeatable, and done before most people finish their evening TV show.
Requirements to apply:
- Open-bed pickup truck for hauling collected trash on the property
- Smartphone with an active data plan for check-ins and route updates
- Physical ability to carry up to 50 lbs unassisted and handle stairs nightly
