Drape Kings, the worldwide leader in event drapes is looking for experienced FT/PT/FREELANCE CARPET MECHANICS and JR. MECHANICS for its Event Carpet Division. We SOLELY DO EVENTS meaning its different from residential and commercial installs. We mainly use double stick tape over existing surfaces with some heat seeming.

We are also looking for Stagehands / Event Crew to help set up and strike these events. Lots of our mechanics do both. Depending on the event, we may or may not have carpet but we do other event related décor that requires event crew / stagehand work.
PRIOR EVENT CARPET EXPERIENCE IS HUGE!!!
Our hours are not typical and can require overnights or late nights and weekends. We pay by the hour and not by the yard due to the size of many of our jobs. As mentioned, Many of our mechanics also install event drape for extra hours and $money$.
Great opportunity for somebody that is very active, physical and not afraid to work during off hours.
Valid drivers license and ability to drive a truck a major plus but not required.
If interested, please indicate desired salary.
