About This Work
Warehouse and distribution work runs on speed and reliability β pick rates, dock schedules, and on-time outbound. The labor either keeps the freight moving or it does not, and the gap between a crew that shows up trained and a crew you have to babysit shows up directly in your throughput and your error rate.
Pro-Tech staffs the full warehouse floor: pickers, packers, forklift operators, shipping and receiving clerks, material handlers, inventory-control staff, and 3PL support. We cover everything from a single-shift distribution center to a 24/7 fulfillment operation, and we recruit for the equipment and the pace your operation actually runs.
Forklift roles are where we are especially careful. "Forklift experience" tells you nothing about which equipment a worker is certified on. We verify the certification and the equipment type β sit-down, stand-up, reach, order picker β before placement, so an operator can safely run your equipment on day one instead of learning it on your floor.
From the DFW Airport cargo zone and the Tarrant County distribution belt to the CVG logistics triangle in Cincinnati, we staff warehouse and distribution work in the corridors where the freight actually concentrates. Our local recruiters know which operations run which equipment and where the certified operators are.
Day to day, that means matching an order picker to your pick methodology, a forklift operator to your specific equipment, and a dock crew to your shift β then keeping the crew reliable through attendance screening and first-week follow-up. We staff a single shift or a 24/7 fulfillment operation with the same discipline.
Roles We Staff
Every role in warehouse & distribution has specific requirements β certifications, physical capabilities, equipment knowledge, and safety protocols. We screen for the full picture, not just warm bodies.

We screen for physical capability, forklift certification, and reliability. Our candidates understand RF scanners, WMS systems, and the pace of high-volume distribution.
When volume spikes, we scale with you. We maintain active pipelines of warehouse-ready workers so we can fill surge orders within 48 hours.
We verify forklift certifications and can provide operators certified on sit-down, stand-up, reach, and order picker equipment.
What to Look For
Confirm the certification is current and matches your equipment. A sit-down counterbalance operator is not automatically a reach-truck or order-picker operator β match the credential to the machine.
A high-volume e-commerce operation and a slow-moving bulk warehouse need different workers. Screen for experience at the pace and pick methodology β RF, voice, or paper β you actually run.
Distribution runs on full shifts; a no-show on a dock or a pick line stalls the whole flow. We screen for attendance history before placing, especially for nights and weekends.
Warehouse injuries and product damage trace back to shortcuts. Look for workers who follow safe operating procedures and understand load limits and pedestrian rules.
Peak season can double your headcount need overnight. A partner who can stage a screened, certified crew ahead of the ramp beats one who starts sourcing when the volume hits.
βDuring peak season we needed 30 warehouse workers in a week. Pro-Tech delivered. More importantly, the attendance rate was above 90% β which is unheard of with temp agencies.β

Yes. We stage screened crews ahead of seasonal ramps and scale headcount up and back down as volume changes, so you are not sourcing from scratch when peak hits.

Yes. We place workers experienced with RF and voice-directed picking and match them to your pick methodology, rather than taking generic "warehouse experience" at face value.

All of our markets, with especially deep warehouse and forklift pools in the DFW mid-cities out of Bedford and the Cincinnati / Northern Kentucky logistics hub.
