POSTED ON 3/11/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/6/2026

Job Summary
We are seeking an experienced forklift operator to join our growing team at Anderson Sod Farm, the premier bluegrass sod provider in Northeast Wisconsin! Our forklifts are heavy duty, rough-terrain, tractor-style lifts as they typically operate in a farm field, not a warehouse setting. Previous farm and/or forklift experience is a big plus for this day shift only, seasonal position. Our season typically runs from mid-April through mid-November, weather dependent. Off in the winter. Sod needs to be loaded onto our delivery trucks to go out to customer jobsites and pick-up orders must be loaded into customer vehicles in a timely manner. Work outdoors, get plenty of fresh air, and exercise while getting paid. Starting pay based on experience. Let's grow together!

  • Show up on time, ready to work, and with a positive attitude.

Requirements

  • Proven experience operating forklifts, trucks, and other heavy equipment.
  • Knowledge of safety standards related to heavy equipment operation.
  • Mechanical aptitude with the ability to perform basic maintenance checks on equipment.
  • Ability to routinely lift over 50 lbs as pallets, sod rolls, and oil buckets need to be loaded or unloaded every day.
  • Ability and willingness to learn other jobs on the farm as they become available. There's always something new to learn and always something to do out here.
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation to/from work.
  • Pass a Drug Screening.
