We move large volumes of product, from small parcels to full-size furniture, and rely on your focus on speed, safety, and attention to detail to keep our supply chain moving. This is a fast-paced, high-energy environment where you'll be cross-trained across various fulfillment functions, giving you diverse experience in every step of the process—from inbound receipt to preparing final-mile deliveries.

  • Utilize scanners, handheld devices (e.g., Nexus), and warehouse software to accurately track, process, and update inventory and order locations across all operational stages.
  • Perform comprehensive quality control tasks, which may include inspecting, assembling (deluxing), repackaging, labeling, and sorting products to prevent damage before shipping.
  • Strictly adhere to all safety procedures and guidelines and maintain a clean, organized work area (5S) to ensure safety and efficiency.

The ability to stand, walk, bend, lift, and work a full shift (8+ hours a day) in a dynamic, non-climate-controlled warehouse environment. The ability to frequently lift and move merchandise up to 75+ lbs. unassisted. Able to read and comprehend English to ensure your safety and the safety of those working around you. Previous warehouse, logistics, or comparable experience is preferred. A High School Diploma or GED is also preferred.
