Warehouse & Logistics Jobs in Atlanta, GA

Industrial & Logistics Work in Atlanta Metro

Atlanta is the logistics capital of the Southeast, anchoring a sprawling distribution network along I-75, I-85, and I-285. Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport handled 640,494 metric tons of air cargo in 2025 — consistently one of the highest volumes of any U.S. airport — driving steady demand for air cargo, freight, and warehouse work. Warehouse work here clusters south of the city: Forest Park, Union City, Fairburn, and College Park hold the bulk of the metro's large-scale distribution centers, including operations for Home Depot, UPS, Amazon, and Wayfair — if you're searching from inside the city, most openings will actually have you commuting to one of these submarkets.

Typical pay: Warehouse workers in the Atlanta metro average around $22/hour ($46,000/year) per Payscale, roughly in line with the national average, with supervisors and managers running $60,000–$80,000+.
