Moving helpers are responsible for the most important part of the moving process – packing, loading, unloading, and unpacking the truck. You will be working with both the foreman and the client so people skills and professionalism are a must. You will need to follow guidelines for safe packing and wrapping of household and commercial items, as well as best loading and unloading practices. At Jake’s Moving and Storage, we specialize in moving large items and high price items like pianos, antiques, etc. As such, you need to know how to pack and move fragile and bulky items delicately and safely.
We expect all of our moving helpers to have:
- a high school diploma or GED minimum
