The Hiring Manager
XXXX Distribution Centre
Brisbane, QLD
Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to apply for the casual Picker-Packer position at XXXX Distribution Centre. I am a reliable, safety-focused worker who is fit, accurate and comfortable meeting daily targets, and I would welcome the chance to join your team.
During a recent Christmas-period role I picked and packed online orders accurately, used an RF scanner to record stock, and helped load and unload deliveries while following all safety procedures. I hold a White Card and a Forklift Licence (LF), work well in a team, and am available for early starts and shift work.
I would be glad to bring my reliability and strong safety focus to XXXX Distribution Centre. My resume is attached, and I would welcome an interview at a time that suits you. Thank you for considering my application.
Kind regards,
Noah Williams

How do I write a warehouse cover letter with no experience?
Keep it short and lead with reliability, fitness and a strong safety focus. Mention any tickets such as a White Card or Forklift Licence, note your availability for early starts and shift work, and use any labouring, work experience or volunteering to show you're dependable. Three short paragraphs is plenty.
Should I mention a forklift licence in a warehouse cover letter?
Yes, if you have one. A Forklift Licence (LF) widens the roles you can do and is worth mentioning early. A White Card and manual handling training are also good to note.
How long should a warehouse cover letter be?
One page, three short paragraphs: the role you want, why you're a good fit (reliable, safe, accurate), and a polite close. Keep it clear and easy to read.
