A day in this role

You start your shift by performing safety checks, then jump onto a stand-up reach truck to pull orders high in the racks.

Transport products from receiving docks to designated warehouse locations
Load and unload trailers efficiently and accurately
Assist with general labor: lift, carry, and move materials (20–50 lbs throughout your shift)
Uphold a clean, orderly, and safe work area

What makes you successful here

At least 1 year of stand-up forklift experience
Exposure to Turret Forklifts is a plus
Reliability, strong attention to safety, and detail orientation

Tools of the trade

Forklifts (Stand-Up Reach, Cherry Picker), Electric Pallet Jack
