About Blue Truck
Blue Truck is a national furniture logistics company that’s reshaping how customers experience delivery — especially when it comes to big, important purchases like sofas, beds, and dining tables. We specialize in white-glove, in-home delivery for some of the fastest-growing furniture brands in the country, combining smart logistics with a seamless delivery experience and high-quality support.
Founded by a team with backgrounds at Uber and other high-growth startups, we’re using technology to bring the furniture supply chain into the modern world. Our focus is simple: let furniture brands shine at what they do best — designing and selling amazing products — while we handle the heavy lifting of delivering them to customers’ homes safely, quickly, and professionally.
Blue Truck is growing fast. We've built a coast-to-coast network and earned a reputation for service that stands out in an industry that doesn’t always get it right. For people who are ambitious, solution-oriented, and excited to be part of a company that's still early in its journey, this is a rare ground-floor opportunity. High performers here aren’t just employees — they’re builders helping shape the future of the company (and their own careers along with it).
What You’ll Do
This is a hands-on, versatile role that blends craftsmanship with warehouse leadership. During the week, you’ll run our in-house repair shop — handling minor furniture repairs, touch-ups, and prepping pieces for delivery. On Saturdays, you’ll step into a leadership role, overseeing warehouse operations to keep everything moving smoothly.
Here’s what your week will look like:
Furniture Repair & Quality Control (Weekdays):
-
Inspect incoming furniture for damage, wear, or quality issues.
Repair wood, fabric, leather, and metal furniture using professional tools and techniques.
-
Use woodworking skills — sanding, staining, fastening, and structural repairs — to bring pieces back to life.
Perform traditional furniture repair techniques such as burn-ins, color matching, grain replication, and detailed touch-up work.
-
Document repairs and maintain a clean, organized work area.
-
Assist with general warehouse operations, including unloading inbound shipments once or twice per week.
Warehouse Supervision (Saturdays):
-
Oversee warehouse activities like receiving, staging, and outbound loading.
-
Lead and support warehouse team members, keeping operations safe and efficient.
-
Operate forklifts and other warehouse equipment.
-
Solve problems on the fly and maintain a clean, organized warehouse.
What We’re Looking For
-
Carpentry or Woodworking Skills: Hands-on experience with wood repair, finishing, assembly, or general carpentry work. (Furniture repair experience is a plus, but not required; if you have a basic background, we’ll train the right person.)
-
Leadership Ability: Experience supervising or leading warehouse, shop, or field crews.
-
Warehouse Experience: Familiarity with warehouse operations; forklift experience is a big plus.
-
High initiative, problem-Solver: You're not just a problem solver, you're a problem spotter. You spot issues early and take pride in fixing them.
-
Physically Capable: Able to lift, move, and handle large pieces of furniture throughout the day.
-
Organized & Detail-Oriented: Whether repairing a piece or staging outbound shipments, you're methodical and careful.
-
High initiative: You have an open mind and a keen sense of observation.
Schedule
-
Tuesday–Friday: Repair/warehouse support (typically 7:30 AM – 4:00 PM)
-
Saturday: Warehouse Supervisor shift (7:30 AM – 4:00 PM, hours may vary slightly based on volume)
Some flexibility is needed depending on business needs.
Why You’ll Love It Here
-
Competitive pay based on experience
-
Health, dental, and vision insurance
-
Paid time off and holidays
-
Real opportunities to grow as Blue Truck expands
-
A team-first environment where craftsmanship and hustle are valued every day
