Lift heavy. Get paid. Eat well.
We're hiring haulers and weekend crew across Columbus. Real pay, weekly cash, no corporate playbook. If you can show up and do the work, we want to talk.
The deal is simple.
We tell you what we pay. We tell you what the schedule is. We don't bait-and-switch.
Starts at $20/hr, plus tips (averages $4–8/hr more). Paid every Friday — direct deposit, Cash App, or paper check. Your call.
We don't have managers, we have a crew. Show up, do the job right, the rest takes care of itself. Honest feedback both directions.
Tell us what works. Want every weekend? Fine. Want Tuesdays off because that's when your kid has soccer? Done. We don't on-call you at 9pm.
Yes really. Crew eats together every Friday after the last job. Big jobs get lunch on Chomp. We feed our pack.
Three ways in.
Pay is real. So is the schedule. So is the pizza.

We're not corporate, but we don't play. Mess with a customer's stuff or our crew, you're done.
No resume. Just text.
We don't care about your LinkedIn. We care if you can show up Saturday at 8am and lift a fridge.
We'll text back same day with a quick screening question. If you sound like a fit, we set up a 15-min ride-along.
30 seconds, phone selfie, tell us your name and one thing you've worked on with your hands. Beats a resume by a mile.
We hire on hustle, not paperwork. We don't care about gaps in your work history, what your last boss said, or whether you went to college. We care if our customers like you when you leave their driveway. Show us that and you're in.
