The Junkluggers
Location: Nashville
Closing Date: 02/11/2024
Hours: Full Time
Type: Permanent
Job Requirements / Description
"Luggers" are the important front-line folks of our business. Do you have a desire to help others while also saving the environment? Are you passionate about GREEN practices? Do you look busy all the time? Would you like to put that energy to good use in a team working in a fast-paced environment and interacting with our valued customers, partners, and teammates? Execute established processes, and once mastered, take new Luggers under your wing, teaching and leading them to be successful.
The Junkluggers is a caring alternative to traditional furniture and junk removal with a commitment to enhance lives, the community & the environment by donating & recycling unwanted items from residents and businesses and by supporting local charities.
The amount of household and commercial waste that ends up in landfills on a daily basis is astronomical. We believe that a lot of this is avoidable, and with just a little attention to detail - and a lot of love for our planet, we can help reverse this growing problem.
At first glance, this role might *seem* like it's just about removing items from a home or business. THIS IS NOT THAT. In order to be a successful Lugger, you will need to be a people-person - ready to put a smile on our customers' faces by providing exceptional customer service. On any given day, you will be helping people in our community who are downsizing, dealing with the loss of a loved one, feeling overwhelmed to part with sentimental items they no longer need, and so much more. You will need to be empathetic to EVERY customer, EVERY time.
You think being part of a fun team is cool?
Yeah, we do too. What we do is hard work, so you need to be motivated and give it your all. But, what we do is also FUN. We have a unique team environment where we all get along and want to help one another (team celebrations and lunches are always great!).
WHO IS A SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE?
You must be friendly, highly motivated, and able to communicate effectively with our valued customers, partners, and teammates. You are an energetic, well-organized, customer-centric problem solver and goal-oriented team player who loves a challenging and fun environment. You must also be physically fit and able to lift substantial weight. Added bonus if you have experience driving a small truck and moving furniture / heavy items.
You are someone who cares about others and the environment and gets excited about getting customers' items to those who can benefit from them and keeping customers' items out of the landfill. You have the ability to recognize the value of items and will treat them with care.
You are looking to work hard, own your paycheck, and gain hands-on business experience. You are excited to join a team that strives to AMAZE every customer with exceptional customer service. You are committed to reaching your full potential in a supportive learning environment.
You like working in the field and from the truck all day; this is NOT an office position (although there are some basic administrative responsibilities).
WHAT YOU'LL DO:
If you enjoy meeting new people, genuinely care about customer service, have a commitment to safety and like variety at work, come help us save the world "One Lug at a Time"! Learn more at
