Within 72 hours of the service request, NVT’s Warehouse Staffing Division can have certified, skilled, and experienced loaders and unloaders deployed to warehouses and distribution centers anywhere in the U.S.
From broadline food distributors and grocery chain operators to distribution centers in small markets, our teams deliver the skilled support that modern fulfillment operations need to maintain uptime, keep their assets safe, and stay ahead of the competition.
What Are Loaders& Unloaders?
Loaders and unloaders move goods throughout the warehouse or distribution center’s fulfillment process. These positions cover complex logistical duties, have high physical demands, specific certification requirements, maintain a safe work environment, and also incur hundreds of thousands of injuries per year.
While skilled loaders and unloaders can streamline warehouse operations, uncertified or inexperienced loaders can cause safety concerns, compliance issues, and operational downtime. To meet seasonal demand, many distributors rely on shallow local talent pools to meet their skill shortfalls.
Rapid-response workforce solutions step in to fill the gaps.
The NVT Difference
At NVT, our loaders and unloaders are trained professionals with the industry certifications required to operate your facility’s machines. Different PITs (Powered Industrial Trucks) require specific OSHA certification. A hand truck, forklift, and pallet jack are not operated the same way, or even in the same position.
Under-certified and inexperienced staff can cause fulfillment issues including shipping delays, safety concerns, and compliance problems. Yet, to cope with seasonal demand shifts, many warehouses and distribution centers rely on local seasonal hires to fill in their skill gaps.
Unlike local teams, which often bring non-specific credentials to the job, our teams deliver the skilled support necessary to satisfy OSHA requirements, maximize production uptime, and keep your workers and assets safe.

Questions To Ask Your Warehouse Workforce Staffing Service Provider

At NVT, we do not require our clients to sign long-term contracts, though our staffing services have a 30-day minimum. Once the seasonal or promotional demand ends, you can phase back to your regular workforce, avoiding idle labor costs.
