About FedEx Supply Chain Overnight Fulfillment
Many FedEx Supply Chain distribution centers run overnight shifts to process high-volume e-commerce orders that must ship by the next morning's carrier pickup. Night shift warehouse associates work while the country sleeps — picking, packing, and shipping orders placed during daytime hours so customers receive next-day or two-day delivery. The overnight shift offers premium pay differentials and a quieter, more focused work environment with fewer interruptions than daytime operations.
Position Overview
FedEx Supply Chain is hiring Night Shift Warehouse Associates for overnight fulfillment operations at distribution center facilities. Working approximately 10:00 PM to 6:30 AM, you will pick customer orders, pack shipments, and process outbound freight to meet early morning carrier pickup deadlines. Premium overnight shift pay applies to all hours worked.
Key Responsibilities
- Pick customer orders from warehouse racking using RF scanners during the overnight fulfillment window.
- Pack orders into shipping cartons selecting appropriate box sizes and protective materials for each item profile.
- Apply shipping labels and stage completed orders in the outbound shipping dock for morning carrier pickup.
- Process priority and expedited orders first to ensure next-day delivery commitments are met before shift end.
- Participate in overnight receiving and put-away operations when inbound freight arrives during off-hours.
