Shipper and Receiver
Description
If you like staying active, working with your hands, and being part of a fast-moving, high-energy team, this could be the job for you.
At Kal Tire in Acheson, we're hiring a Temporary / Contract Shipper Receiver
Do you thrive on physical work. In this role, you’ll spend your shift moving, lifting, and stacking tires — lots of them. It’s not a desk job. It’s not light work. It’s about keeping the warehouse running by doing the kind of work that builds strength, teamwork, and satisfaction.
What a Typical Day Looks Like:
Tuesday-Saturday Day Shift:
- Help manually load or unload 53-foot trailers, each loaded with up to 1,000 tires
- Lift and move tires weighing between 30–50 pounds all day long
- Work side-by-side with teammates to stack tires by hand on pallets and restock warehouse racks
- Keep the shipping area tidy and clear to help things move safely and efficiently
This is repetitive, physical work. You’ll be on your feet your entire shift — moving, lifting, and working as part of a strong, reliable team.
Qualifications:
- Physically capable of lifting 30–50 lb tires all day
- Someone who enjoys physical labour and takes pride in staying productive
- A reliable team player with a strong work ethic
- Shipping and receiving or warehouse experience is helpful, but not required
- Forklift experience is a plus — or we’ll train you!
