It’s hard to beat the stability that a job with the city provides. Keeping the city clean requires constant effort. Collecting trash and recyclables is an essential service. You are needed, even during times like the COVID-19 lockdowns. Most city jobs are disaster-proof – that makes you essential.

When you work for CABQ Solid Waste Management, you’ll get access to extensive employee benefits, a retirement plan, and competitive wages that help you put down your roots and do what you want with your life. You can rest easy knowing that your career has you covered, both in the present and the future.

A career with the city opens doors. CABQ provides many career tracks that allow your job to grow with you. You may start as a mechanic or a vehicle servicer, but you could end up in management or even in a different division. Many city employees have success stories to tell – homes purchased, families started, dreams achieved.

A great city should always be a clean city. At CABQ Solid Waste Management, it’s our job to make sure Albuquerque stays that way. Whether you’re repairing a bulldozer for the landfill or driving one of our big blue trucks, you’ll be making Albuquerque a better place to live. How many people can say that when they come home after a day’s work?

Keeping Albuquerque clean involves much more than managing household trash. While collection and disposal are a large part of what we do, we also focus on other areas like recycling, and vehicle maintenance. No matter which job you take, you’ll be working with the team that’s responsible for keeping our urban environment pristine.

As a city that’s surrounded by a unique and beautiful landscape, it’s crucial that we keep it that way. CABQ Solid Waste Management is devoted to ensuring that Albuquerque and its surroundings remain vibrant and welcoming. Our city is more likely to continue growing if it’s clean, and what’s good for Albuquerque is good for all of New Mexico.
