Now Hiring: Part-Time Warehouse Associates

Join VARCo Supply and take on a vital role in our fast-paced warehouse operations at our Akron, Ohio location! As a Warehouse Associate, you'll be trained to excel in four key areas-assembling custom hoses, picking orders, packing shipments, and managing inventory-supporting our mission to deliver top-quality products to the portable toilet and septic industry. We're looking for dependable, detail-driven team members who thrive under deadlines and take pride in their work.

Who We Are

VARCo Supply is a family-owned company with a vibrant, supportive culture and over 50 years of history. Headquartered in Virginia, with locations in Arkansas and now Ohio, we're growing quickly and we're excited to keep the momentum going for the next 50! We're a team that works hard, celebrates success, and values reliability.

What You'll Do

• Assemble : Build coupled hoses with fittings using machinery and tools on a fast-paced, timed production environment.
• Pick Orders : Accurately pull products based on batch/order details, ensuring correct quantities and types are staged for shipment using a double pallet jack; meet assigned pick times and customer service standards.
• Pack Orders : Organize products to minimize damage, pack them in the right boxes with necessary padding, attach Prop 65 warnings, and prepare shipping paperwork (labels, bills of lading) for damage-free, accurate outbound shipments.

• Manage Inventory : Keep tight control with accurate records, assist in physical inventories, ensure proper stock rotation, and restock materials as needed.

• Additional Duties : Maintain a clean, safe, and orderly workspace while adhering to all safety protocols and double pallet jack operation procedures. Operate and maintain equipment (e.g., charge forklift batteries, perform minor pallet jack maintenance, repair pallets); label, sort, wrap, or repack as required; act as backup across warehouse areas during absences; report quality variances, accidents, or injuries to leadership immediately and complete necessary reports.

What We're Looking For

• Skills : Strong attention to detail, ability to count accurately, do simple math, and write legibly; basic mechanical aptitude for equipment operation.
• Physical Ability : Capable of repetitive lifting up to 100 lbs, and able to sit, stand, bend, and walk for extended periods.
• Equipment Experience : Ability to operate material handling equipment like a double pallet jack (certification a plus, but training provided).
• Work Ethic : Proven attendance history, a strong sense of urgency, and the ability to meet deadlines and quality standards.
• Teamwork : Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
• Requirements : Valid driver's license (not suspended) with a good driving record.
