Warehouse Staffing
Warehouse Staffing Agency in Memphis, TN
Memphis moves freight for the country, and a distribution floor does not wait on a requisition. We staff warehouse and distribution operations across the metro with people screened for the pace, the lift, and the shift your site actually runs.
Roles we place across the Memphis metro
- Order pickers and packers
- Loaders and unloaders
- Material handlers
- Shipping and receiving clerks
- Inventory and cycle count associates
- Returns and reverse logistics processors
- Sanitation and warehouse cleanup crews
- Lead and working supervisor roles
What we screen for before anyone reaches your dock
A warehouse placement fails for predictable reasons. We screen for each of them up front.
- Physical fit. Actual lift requirement, standing hours, temperature, and pace, described honestly to the candidate before they accept.
- Shift reality. A 5:00 AM start is a different job than a 3:00 PM start. We confirm the candidate can sustain the schedule, not just accept it.
- Commute. Distance and route are the single biggest predictor of week-two attrition in this market.
- Screening compliance. Background and drug screening run to your site standard before dispatch, not after.
- Systems exposure. RF scanner, WMS, or paper pick experience where the role requires it.
We confirm every associate the night before and again at shift start, and we hold a bench so a 5:00 AM call-out does not become an empty station at 7:00.
Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you fill a warehouse order in Memphis?
For standard warehouse roles we work same day and next morning starts depending on headcount, shift, and screening requirements. Call us with the order and we will tell you honestly whether we can cover it rather than accepting an order we cannot fill.
Can you staff second and third shift warehouse roles?
Yes. Off-shift coverage is where most Memphis distribution operations struggle hardest, and we recruit specifically for it.
Do you handle high-volume or peak season ramps?
Yes. For high-volume programs we recommend an on-site managed model where a coordinator works from your floor managing attendance, coverage, and turnover across shifts.
Who pays workers compensation for warehouse temps?
We do. Advance Staffing is the employer of record for every associate on assignment, which means payroll, payroll taxes, unemployment insurance, and workers compensation coverage sit with us.
