About us
Our goal is to find drivers who have a United States Driver’s License with reliable transportation and insurance to work with Olyns as a Sherpa and make money while helping the environment. An Olyns Sherpa is alerted when the Olyns recycling Cubes are full of recycled beverage containers and is directed to pick-up the materials, then transport and log them for processing. Receive pay per cube service collection with the opportunity for additional incentives.
Be A Success
You set your schedule, the pace, and route! The Olyns Cubes operate from 5am to 2am allowing a wide range of availability to accommodate all schedules allowing for greater work/life balance. The Cubes are in a variety of locations all in need of service and are actively expanding. The Olyns App process is simple and straight-forward with minimal training allowing all to be successful from the start.
