Skilled Material Handlers, Ready Fast
Our experienced professionals keep shelves stocked, products moving, and schedules on time. When you need immediate support, NVT’s Rapid Response Teams deploy quickly with the skills and adaptability to maintain consistent, uninterrupted throughput.
Material Handler Roles & Responsibilities
Material handlers perform a wide range of essential warehouse functions that keep operations running smoothly.
Duties include unloading and palletizing inbound freight, breaking down floor-load shipments, handling cartons, and shrink-wrapping goods for stability. Their daily work also extends to putaway, replenishment, staging, and outbound loading, which enables distribution facilities to maintain a steady rhythm even during seasonal or unexpected demand surges.
Workers are familiar with RF scanning, label application, and lot or date code verification, while also supporting cycle counts and inventory accuracy. When order volume peaks, handlers step in to support selectors and help prevent bottlenecks. Just as important, they maintain housekeeping and aisle safety in compliance with site-specific operating procedures.
Facilities & Environments We Support
NVT material handlers have worked in a wide variety of settings, including broadline food distributors, regional grocery chains, and national distribution networks. Teams can operate in dry facilities, refrigerated warehouses, or freezer environments.
Cross-dock operations and high-velocity DCs also benefit from their versatility, whether systems rely on conveyor automation or traditional floor-based movement. In regional markets where talent availability is thin, NVT bridges the gap by supplying dependable throughput support.
