Street Cleaner

A Street Cleaner uses a range of methods to keep streets, roads and walkways clear. Depending on the space involved you might use manual tools or you might use plant equipment such as specialised sweeper vehicles. Street Cleaners might attend to specific incidents that require cleaning or be part of regular street cleaning maintenance programs. You might work on your own or as part of a street cleaning team.

Street Cleaners need to be able to perform manual tasks when required and may have to work irregular hours. You’ll need to be able to work as part of a team and follow directions well. It’s important that you manage your time well and can prioritise your daily tasks.
