Job Description
Yard Hostler and Warehouse Forklift Specialist
Employer: Express Employment Professionals
Location: Tonganoxie, KS 66086
Compensation: $21.00–$23.50 per hour (based on experience)
Shifts Available: 1st and 3rd
- 1st shift: Monday–Friday, 6:00 AM – 2:30 PM

Picture starting your shift, grabbing your handheld radio, and coordinating with the dock team. You ease a yard hostler into position, spot a loaded trailer to the correct door, and keep freight flowing. When yard moves slow down, you jump onto a sit-down forklift to support warehouse operations—always following site procedures, checking for safety, and updating simple tasks on a tablet or computer. Throughout the day, you shuttle trailers on private property only—never on public roads—keeping operations smooth and on schedule.
What you’ll handle- Move empty and loaded trailers with a yard hostler (spotter) safely within facility property.
- Shuttle trailers between the yard and loading docks in coordination with the team.
- Operate a sit-down forklift when not performing yard-driving duties.
- Communicate clearly via handheld radio to align moves and priorities.
- Use basic computer/tablet systems to support daily tasks.
- Follow all site safety procedures and operational guidelines.
Important: Trailer movements are on-site only; no operation on public roads.
What you bring- Minimum 1 year operating a yard hostler or comparable equipment.
- Valid driver’s license and ability to meet insurance carrier insurability requirements.
- Experience with, or ability to learn, sit-down forklift operation.
- Basic comfort with tablets/computers.
- Reliability, strong attention to detail, and a safety-first mindset.
- Competitive pay: $21.00–$23.50/hour, based on qualifications and experience.
- First-shift hours.
- Full-time opportunity.
- A blended role with both yard spotting and forklift responsibilities.
- Forklifts
- forklift
- yard hostler
