Warehouse Job Description:

Warehouse Workers play a key role in the distribution of all kinds of goods. Warehouse Workers receive goods by unloading trucks. They check the contents of the shipment against a document, which may be either a bill of lading or a packing list while unloading or loading trucks or customer vehicles. Warehouse Workers mark each unit of the shipment with a label or a barcode and note any back orders on partial shipments. Then they store all of the received items in bins, shelves, on wooden pallets in larger spaces on the floor, or on pallet racks. They enter the total quantity of the item or items in the shipment into inventory records. All items remain stored in the warehouse until someone needs to use them or purchase them.

Warehouse Workers receive orders for warehouse stock, they pull the items from shelves and prepare them for shipping. They pack items into boxes and stack the boxes on pallets. They secure the pallets by wrapping them with strapping tape or shrink-wrap.

Warehouse Workers perform a variety of other tasks on a regular basis which include:

Restock shelves and pallets, observing the first-in first-out rule of stocking inventory

Load and unload pallets onto trucks

Supervise all aspects of the warehouse

Direct and Support that all store policies are being implemented

Communicate with Office Manager on daily operations, issues and concerns

Assist customers with matters pertaining to receiving, stock availability, and loading

Conduct inventory counts of items on a regular basis

Assist managers with arranging and organizing warehouse space more efficiently

Maintain facilities by sweeping floors and discarding loose debris and taking out trash daily

Build and set up displays

Hang banners or signs

Make vinyl and carpet cuts for all customer orders

Warehouse Workers use a variety of hand-powered, electric, or gas-powered machines and equipment to perform their daily tasks. They use several types of wheeled devices to move materials within the facility or to load and unload cargo vehicles. They use hand trucks, flatbed carts, and pallet jacks to move heavy materials across the warehouse floor. They operate forklifts and platform lifters to stack pallets or boxes on metal racks or upper shelves that can be 15 feet or higher above the ground. They also use several sizes of ladders to access the different levels of the warehouse storage spaces.

Warehouse Workers perform their tasks indoors, although they may be exposed to outdoor weather conditions while loading and unloading vehicles at an open loading dock. Warehouses are well lighted, but may not be air-conditioned or heated unless strict climate-controlled conditions are needed to protect certain types of inventory.

These workers perform a physically demanding job. They spend the greater part of their day standing and walking. They routinely lift heavy objects that may weigh as much as 100 pounds. They also bend and stoop frequently and sometimes work in confined spaces.

Please submit your resume if interested. Only resumes submitted by email will be considered for this position. Background check and pre-employment drug screen required.
