Schedule: 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM

Hardwood Bargains is a fast-growing flooring company in Austin, TX. We're relocating our warehouse and need an experienced Forklift Operator to help handle the move using our own equipment.

What You’ll Be Doing
- Safely operate forklift to load, unload, and transport inventory during the warehouse move
- Move flooring materials and staged inventory between locations
- Follow all safety protocols while operating company equipment
- Assist with general warehouse organization during the transition
- Work efficiently and reliably to keep the move on schedule

✅ 3+ years of forklift operation experience (certification required)
✅ Comfortable operating forklifts
✅ Ability to lift 70 lbs regularly
✅ Reliable transportation (local Austin commute)
✅ Strong attention to detail and safety
✅ Positive attitude and strong work ethic — this is what separates temp from full-time
Pay Details
- $22–$24/hr (based on experience)
- Weekly pay
- 2-3 week assignment, 40 hrs/week
- Full-time opportunity to follow for the right candidate
