Do you trash haulers come home smelling like garbage every day?

Serious question, I'm considering apply for a trash job and want to know what to expect when it comes to odor.

 

I did it from the age of 17 to 21 over 30 years ago . The truck did stink outside in the back where I was standing in summer but it wasn’t all that bad . I felt the money was worth it compared to other jobs back then.if you’re driving the truck and most pick ups are automatic I’d imagine it wouldn’t be too bad.

 

lol. wait until you have to walk the trash to roll the screen out. nothing like falling into a 3 foot void

 

What does that mean?

 

I think he’s talking about the export trash Ontario sends to Michigan in open trailers with netting over the top

 

I've been at the truck shop when they have a trash truck in a bay. It's awful. The building holds the smell and the flies!!!! Freakin' swarms of flies. I don't know how the mechanics deal with it.
