Residential Operations

(11 min.) Driving in the cities and suburbs can present many increased risks for you as a driver. There are more pedestrians than you'd encounter elsewhere; walkers, joggers, and cyclists. Children in neighborhoods at play may dart out in the street at any moment. Streets may be narrow, traffic congested, and more starts/stops involved so it's of vital importance that you stay alert, slow down, and drive defensively. In this program, we will focus on residential pick up of solid waste, the hazards you can expect to encounter, and best practices to avoid and prevent accidents while on the job.

Topics Included in this safety video are: responsibilities (driver and helper), residential pick-up, manual pick-up, safe manual lifting, automated pick-up, backing, truck fires, and landfill.

Program comes with a CD-ROM of written materials, including test questions and answers. English title also includes PowerPoint presentation.
