Pipe Yard Material Handling Specialist

A day in the yard

Sun up in Southeast Houston. You step into a busy pipe yard where trucks are backing into bays, loads are staged, and crews count on you to keep material moving. You climb onto a forklift/combilift to reposition large pipe, check lengths with a tape measure, and pull the right fittings and flanges to complete outgoing orders. Safety, accuracy, and steady pace—this is your rhythm.
