About The Position

We are looking for hard-working, dependable, and motivated individuals to join our rapidly growing storage operation as Material Handlers. This is a hands-on position for someone who takes pride in doing a job correctly, pays attention to the details, and can be counted on by the people working beside them. Our Material Handlers are responsible for receiving, inspecting, moving, organizing, and tracking large and heavy materials throughout the facility. This is not a typical warehouse position. Our operation involves trucks, heavy materials, rigging, lifting equipment, and an active work environment where safety, communication, and attention to detail are critical. Candidates with backgrounds in military service, construction, rigging, heavy equipment, industrial operations, logistics, or skilled trades are strongly encouraged to apply. We value people who are accustomed to working as part of a team, following procedures, taking responsibility for their work, and stepping up when something needs to get done.

Dependable – You show up on time, prepared to work, and your team can count on you.
Detail-oriented – You understand that quantities, load information, inventory records, and material identification need to be correct.
Safety-minded – You recognize the risks involved with trucks, heavy materials, rigging, and equipment and don't take unnecessary shortcuts.
Hard-working – You're comfortable with physical work and aren't afraid to get your hands dirty.
Self-motivated – You don't need someone standing over you to stay productive.
Team-oriented – You communicate clearly and understand that everyone has a responsibility to keep the operation moving safely.
Accountable – You take ownership of your work and speak up when something doesn't look right.
Adaptable – You can adjust when priorities change and continue performing in a fast-paced environment.
