Message from the Owner - Summary**** This position typically runs from 6:00–6:30 AM until approximately 5:00–6:00 PM, Monday through Friday. We work hard during the week so we can enjoy our weekends — Saturdays and Sundays are always off.
This is not simply a truck-driving job. It is a sales-oriented, performance-driven role with significant earning upside.
Our Buyers (Drivers) are professional field representatives of Christensen Recycling. They are responsible for building relationships, sourcing material, and growing accounts — not just operating a truck.
Compensation includes:
Base Salary
Commission on material purchased
Quarterly (and sometimes more frequent) Contribution Bonuses
How Our Bonus System Works
Our Buyers go into the field daily to purchase precious-metal-bearing automotive scrap, including:
Catalytic converters
Aluminum wheels
Radiators
Transmissions
Motors
Batteries
And other automotive components
These materials are essential to our direct-to-smelter trading business.
In addition to salary and commission, Buyers earn a Contribution Bonus, typically paid quarterly, based on the number of catalytic converters and qualifying material they contribute to the company. These contributions directly enable Christensen Recycling to participate in precious metals trading — making this a true partnership-style compensation model where strong performers are rewarded for helping grow the business.
This structure allows motivated, relationship-driven professionals to build a long-term career with significant income growth, not just hold a driving job
