- Use equipment like forklifts or pressure washers when needed
- Keep basic records of trailer movements and equipment checks
- Support landscaping and light outdoor maintenance when required (watering plants, trimming bushes, etc.)
What We’re Looking For
- A valid driver’s license (CDL is a big plus, but not always required)
- High school diploma or GED preferred
- Previous experience working in a yard, warehouse, or distribution center is a bonus.
