About The Position

The Palletizer stacks products or materials onto pallets for shipping or storage, ensuring they are arranged, secured, and labeled. Duties include inspecting the pallet jack at the start of each shift and promptly reporting safety-related deficiencies to the shipping supervisor. The role also involves receiving load pick tickets from the load controller; coordinating with high lift drivers to obtain required products; hand-stacking boxes; separating products by date when required; and wrapping pallets by hand or with a pallet wrapper.

The employee checks product code dates to ensure the oldest product is picked or that customer date restrictions are met, moves products to the dock, and works with the loader as needed. Using scan guns, the employee builds pallet tags, completes pallet inquiries, ships orders, transfers products among warehouses, and processes customer returns. This description is not all-inclusive, and other related duties may be assigned to meet organizational needs.
