Clamp Truck Materials Handling Operator

About the role

Join our team in Fontana, CA as a Clamp Truck Materials Handling Operator. You will keep materials moving safely and efficiently across our operation, using a clamp attachment to load, unload, and position product while maintaining high quality standards and clear documentation.

A day in the life

You begin with a walk-around of your clamp truck, checking controls and attachments. On the dock, you use the clamp to lift and transfer product from incoming trailers to designated storage bays. As you work, you examine materials for defects, note anything unusual, and communicate promptly with your supervisor. You keep your area orderly, complete routine upkeep on the clamp equipment, and capture your activity in daily logs so the next shift hits the ground running. Throughout the day, you coordinate with teammates to meet production targets and deadlines.
