At M&M Recycling, every repair you make keeps our metal moving and our community greener. Join a family-owned recycling company where safety, precision, and teamwork drive everything we do.

- Extra Earning Power: Weekly overtime opportunities.
- Growth-Minded Culture: Career advancement in an expanding recycling industry.
Here's what a typical week looks like in our yard:
- Repair & Maintain: Cranes, excavators, bobcats, forklifts, shredders, trucks.
- Diagnose Issues: Mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical problems.
- Preventive Care: Regular inspections and service to minimize downtime.
- Document Work: Keep accurate logs and maintenance records.

- Skills: Welding and fabrication (preferred).
- Certifications: Valid driver's license required.
- Strength: Ability to lift 50 lbs. and work outdoors year-round.
