Evergreen Environmental & Reclamation Ltd. is hiring an experienced Hydroseed Truck Driver. Evergreen is a BC environmental restoration company working across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley - hydroseeding, erosion and sediment control, site and mine reclamation, and vegetation and tree management.

This position is a mix of local and away work. Most weeks you are running jobs around Abbotsford, the Fraser Valley and the Lower Mainland and home at night. On larger hydroseeding projects and camp-based work you will be away for multiple days at a time.

Be clear on what this job is. It is a driving position, but the truck is only half of it. Between loads you are on the deck and on the ground - carrying and breaking mulch bales into the tank, climbing the ladder up and down throughout the day, dragging hose across slopes and uneven ground, and washing out at the end of it. This work is physically demanding every day, not just on the big ones. If you are looking for a seat-time truck job, this is not one.
