OES - Occupational Employment Statistics and Wages
The Occupational Employment Statistics program produces employment and wage estimates for over 700 occupations. These are estimates of the number of people employed in certain occupations and the wages paid to them.
I've heard thru the grapevine that they can make decent money. I'm not sure of the exact amount and it can differ among one's geographic location, but here is a website for general career info: US occupational outlook handbook -- www.bls.gov/oco and can type into search 'trash collector' or 'garbage collector' (or sanitation engineer :)

You may also want to check with your local municipal building and look on their website for any jobs available though they may not necessarily post such jobs. Good luck to you!
