Pay Range: $16.00 – $29.00 per hour (Plus Incentives)

Status: Part-Time

First impressions are everything. As a Cart Attendant, you are often the first and last person a customer “interacts” with at our store. You’re responsible for ensuring that the very first thing a shopper touches—their cart—is clean, available, and ready for use.

This is a high-energy, active role perfect for someone who enjoys being outdoors, staying on the move, and working independently to keep the store’s operations flowing smoothly.

The Role: More Than Just Gathering Carts

You aren’t just moving equipment; you’re managing the pulse of the parking lot and the entryway.

• Cart Recovery: Efficiently gathering carts from various corrals and the parking lot to ensure the indoor bay is always stocked.

• Store Presentation: Keeping the parking lot and entrance areas clear of debris, ensuring a welcoming environment for every guest.

• Customer Interaction: Providing a friendly greeting or a “let me help you with that” when you see a customer struggling with heavy items.

• Weather Resilience: Taking pride in getting the job done, whether it’s a beautiful Phoenix morning or a 110° afternoon.

Why This is a Great Move

• Strong Earning Potential: With a range of $16 to $29/hr, your pay reflects your effort and the value you bring to the team.

• Education Support: Take advantage of tuition assistance to further your career while you work.

• Health & Future: Access to medical, dental, and vision coverage, along with a 401(k) retirement plan.

• Time to Recharge: Earn paid time off to ensure you have a healthy work-life balance.

Outdoor Safety & Heat Management

In Phoenix, we take the “all weather conditions” part of the job description seriously. We prioritize your safety, especially during the summer months.

Pro-Tip for Phoenix Attendants: Use the “Hydration Ladder” method—drink water before you feel thirsty and utilize the cooling stations provided by the store during high-heat intervals.

• High-Visibility Gear: We provide safety vests to ensure you are easily seen by drivers in the parking lot.

• Sun Protection: We encourage the use of hats and sunscreen, and we schedule frequent “cool-down” breaks during peak Arizona temperatures.

• Ergonomics: You’ll be trained on the proper way to steer cart rows to prevent strain on your shoulders and back.
