Working in Toronto

Warehouse work in Toronto

Warehouse work inside Toronto proper concentrates in South Etobicoke along the Queensway, Evans Avenue and Kipling (food and beverage distribution, packaging), in Rexdale along Highway 27 and Carlingview (courier hubs, air-cargo overflow and distribution), in North York around Keele–Finch and Dufferin–Finch (medical supply, printing and last-mile depots) and in the Junction and Port Lands (film and event logistics, building materials).

The TTC covers all of these, if not always quickly: Kipling and Islington stations and the 44 and 110 for South Etobicoke, the 191 Highway 27 Rocket and 45 Kipling for Rexdale, Finch West for North York. Pay in Toronto warehouses typically runs $18 to $21 an hour for general roles and $20 to $26 for forklift and dock work.

Getting there

Getting to work in Toronto

The TTC reaches almost every industrial pocket, though not always quickly: South Etobicoke via Kipling and Islington stations and the 44 Kipling South and 110 Islington South; Rexdale via the 191 Highway 27 Rocket and 45 Kipling; North York via Finch West station and the Finch, Keele and Dufferin buses. Downtown offices are a subway ride.

Blue Night buses cover the major arterials after the subway closes, which keeps Etobicoke and North York night shifts staffable. Rexdale sites off Carlingview and Attwell are where we check transportation most carefully.

For downtown office placements we favour candidates on the subway lines or the GO network. A temp who is late in week one will not be extended in week three.
