Warehouse Worker/Laborer/Picker/Packer/Forklift Operator/Load/Unload

Warehouse Distribution Associate - Shipping Cherry Hill, NJ $18/hour $18.50 after 6 months Monday-Friday 7:30am-4:00pm No weekends

What makes this role different:

Consistent schedule: Same shift every week, no mandatory overtime

Climate-controlled facility: Safe, clean warehouse environment year-round

Real growth path: Most of our supervisors and leads started as warehouse associates

100% company-funded ESOP: You become an owner in the company

Full benefits start 1st of the month after 30 days employed: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), life insurance, and disability

Your day-to-day: You'll operate stand-up reach trucks (60-70% of your time) to pick flooring materials using RF scanners, build secure pallets with products ranging from 50-80 lbs., and prepare shipments for our destination warehouses. This is a physical, fast-paced role where accuracy matters—you're supporting contractors and homeowners counting on the right materials arriving on time.

What you need to succeed here:

Required: 2+ years operating stand-up reach trucks in a warehouse setting

Required: 2+ years warehouse/distribution experience

Required: Comfortable consistently lifting 50-80 lbs. throughout your shift (occasionally up to 100 lbs.)

Required: Ability to work in an environment with dust, noise, and variable temperatures

Required: Valid driver's license and clean background check

High school diploma or equivalent

Experience with RF scanners and reading product labels accurately

The employee must be able to read and understand written instructions, safety procedures, labels, work orders, and other job-related materials in English, and communicate effectively in English as necessary to safely and efficiently perform the essential functions of the position

Physical reality of this job: You'll be on your feet operating equipment for 8+ hours. This role involves constant bending, reaching, lifting, and stacking. You need good hand-eye coordination and vision (near, far, depth perception) to work safely. If you have back issues or can't handle repetitive heavy lifting, this won't be the right fit.

Why our team stays: We're Avalon Flooring, an employee-owned company that's been growing for over 30 years. We invest in our people with on-the-job training, promote from within, and offer 15 days PTO plus 6 paid holidays in your first year. Our warehouse teams work together to hit goals—not against each other.
