Few small towns move as much freight as Plainfield does.

The short answer

With more than 40 million square feet of industrial space packed along I-70 and the AmeriPlex corridor next to Indianapolis International Airport, this Hendricks County town hosts distribution operations for Amazon, Walmart, UPS, Home Depot, and a long roster of third-party logistics firms, all within a day's drive of most of the country. For employers here, the demand for warehouse labor never really lets up, and neither does the competition for it.

Staffing one of the densest distribution clusters in the Midwest

High-volume fulfillment and 3PL operations run in shifts and swing hard with peak season, and the airport-adjacent AmeriPlex parks concentrate that demand into a few square miles. A center short on pickers, packers, or forklift operators loses throughput and risks SLA penalties fast.

In a market this concentrated, the staffing partner who can surge vetted labor on short notice, including the hard-to-fill second and third shifts, is worth more than any job board.
