Warehouse/Non-CDL Delivery Driver

T18 Jacksonville - Jacksonville, FL 32216

Overview

Position Type Full Time Job Shift Day Education Level High School Category Warehouse

Description

Warehouse Associate, Backup Non-CDL Driver

You are the kind of person who notices what others miss, takes ownership without being asked, and leaves every shift knowing the work was done right. Tropic Supply was built by people like you.

Full-Time | Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 4:30 PM | Jacksonville, FL | Tropic Supply, Inc.

Two Roles. One Standard.

This position is primarily warehouse work with a real secondary responsibility. When the operation needs coverage, you get behind the wheel. That means we need someone who is excellent in the warehouse and qualified and professional on the road. If you bring both, this is a stable, long-term role inside Florida's largest independent, family-owned HVAC and refrigeration distribution company.

We have operated for more than 50 years across 23 Florida locations because we hire people who take their work seriously and treat them well in return. That is the offer on the table.

In the warehouse, where you will spend most of your time:

• You pull and fill orders with accuracy, receive and stock incoming inventory, and verify parts, serial numbers, and paperwork against physical inventory at every step.
• You operate sit-down forklifts, pallet jacks, and hand trucks, support cycle counts and inventory integrity, assist counter sales with order fulfillment, help customers load product safely, and keep the warehouse clean and organized to standard.
• Attention to detail is not a soft skill here. It is the job. A wrong pull or a missed serial number creates a real problem for a contractor downstream, and we hold that standard every day.

As a backup driver, when the operation calls for you:

• You safely operate Tropic Supply vans and light box trucks under 26,001 lbs GVWR on local routes.
• You complete pre-trip and post-trip inspections, verify product accuracy, handle delivery documentation, and represent Tropic Supply professionally at every stop. Safe operation and accurate paperwork are non-negotiable.

• Ability to lift up to 75 lbs consistently throughout a shift and sustain physical activity in a non-climate-controlled environment

• Operate a motor vehicle for local deliveries, including repeated cab entry and exit
• Work in a non-climate-controlled warehouse environment subject to Florida heat and ambient noise
• Wear required personal protective equipment throughout the shift

Who Fits This Role

You do not cut corners in the warehouse and you do not take shortcuts on the road. You follow process correctly, ask when you are unsure, and take ownership of accuracy without being reminded. You show up ready to work physically and carry the same professionalism on a delivery as you do on the floor. You are dependable, detail-oriented, and ready for a long-term home.
