Role Overview & Responsibilities

As a UPS Weekend Warehouse Package Handler, you work Friday evening through Sunday sort shifts inside our package center, processing the weekend's elevated residential delivery and pickup volume that builds throughout the week and peaks on Saturday and Sunday sort windows.

• Weekend Volume Processing: Sort, load, and unload the high-density package volume that accumulates through the week, operating at peak throughput across Friday night, Saturday, and Sunday shifts to clear the facility for Monday morning delivery routes.
• Weekend Surge Handling: Navigate the additional volume generated by weekend e-commerce orders and residential pickups, adapting quickly to higher-than-weekday sort targets that UPS weekend shifts routinely reach.
• Trailer Loading & Unloading: Pull inbound packages from arriving trailers and build outbound loads in package cars and linehaul lanes, using UPS-approved stacking methods to maintain load quality standards across all weekend shifts.
