garbage truck driver keeps town clean in Wallkill
Walter Schmidt runs two 18 cubic yard garbage trucks six days a week for about 700 customers in Scotchtown Wallkill. He faces high costs and landfill fee increases while dealing with roaming dogs, stubborn residents, and ever present odors as he collects and compresses waste throughout the day. Schmidt, 38, moved from New York City a decade ago and shares a deli partnership on Second Avenue with a brother-in-law.
