The workforce partner built for sanitation.
Augment provides sanitation companies with expertly-matched, fully managed labor — from driver helpers and MRF crews to landfill labor and CDL drivers — so your operations never miss a beat.
The operational pressures you face every day.
Sanitation operators deal with a uniquely demanding labor environment. We built Augment specifically around these realities.
Chronic Labor Shortages
High turnover and tight labor markets make it nearly impossible to keep routes fully staffed. One gap cascades into missed pickups and compliance risk.
Last-Minute Callouts
Early-morning no-shows require immediate coverage. Without a reliable partner, supervisors spend the first hour scrambling instead of operating.
HR & Compliance Overhead
Managing payroll, workers' comp, I-9s, and state employment law across a distributed workforce pulls management away from running routes.
Safety & Training Gaps
Sanitation is one of the most hazardous industries in the U.S. Untrained workers increase incident risk, insurance costs, and liability on every route.
Unpredictable Labor Costs
Seasonal volume swings and contract changes make it hard to right-size headcount. Overstaffing erodes margins; understaffing costs you contracts.
CDL Driver Availability
Finding qualified, licensed drivers is a nationwide crisis. The pipeline is thin and competition from other industries makes retention a constant battle.
Workforce solutions across the full sanitation operation.
From the back of the truck to the front office, Augment provides industry-matched labor at every level of your operation.
Driver Helpers
Hoppers, slingers, tailgaters — whatever your operation calls them, we provide reliable, trained helpers who show up on time and understand the physical demands of the job.
Full-Cycle MRF Labor
End-to-end labor management for materials recovery facilities — sorters, equipment operators, line workers, and supervisory support scaled to your throughput needs.
Landfill Labor
Trained workers for litter patrol, loose trash pickup, and landfill compliance tasks — keeping your site clean and inspection-ready at all times.
CDL Drivers
Qualified commercial drivers with relevant sanitation experience, vetted and ready to integrate into your existing routes and equipment fleet.
Administrative Temps
Dispatch, billing, customer service, and operations support staff who understand the pace and language of the sanitation industry.
Everything managed. Nothing falls through the cracks.
