Knoxville’s staffing agency since 2012.

Industries we staff

Hands-on staffing across the industries Knoxville actually runs on. No office temps, no IT contractors, just workers who show up ready.

Knoxville is a working city. There is always a job site going up off the interstate, a hotel near downtown or the river that needs its rooms turned, a distribution center along the I-40 and I-75 corridor moving freight, and an event filling up a venue on a fall Saturday when the Vols are in town and Neyland Stadium empties into the streets. We staff the people who keep all of that moving. Honestly, we are in the people business, and putting your neighbors to work here in Knox County is the best part of what we do. Every worker is pre-screened and ready today, dispatched from our family-owned office on Chapman Highway, not a franchise in another state.

Knoxville is bigger than people give it credit for. The University of Tennessee is the largest employer in the area, with more than ten thousand faculty and staff, and football Saturdays at Neyland Stadium pour a hundred thousand people into downtown. The University of Tennessee Medical Center anchors a healthcare corridor of its own. The Tennessee Valley Authority runs its headquarters from downtown towers, and a short drive west sits Oak Ridge and the national laboratory, the research and energy backbone of the whole region. None of those places are our customers, and we would never claim otherwise, but they tell you what kind of city this is: a working city with a deep, steady need for hands. Around all of that sits the day-to-day Knoxville we actually staff for, the hotels, the warehouses, the job sites, the production floors, and the events that fill a weekend.

You can see the city changing if you stand on Chapman Highway and look toward the river. The South Waterfront is being rebuilt block by block, a new pedestrian bridge is going up to tie South Knoxville to the UT campus, and the Urban Wilderness has put a thousand forested acres and more than fifty miles of trail right at the edge of downtown. Growth like that means more construction, more hospitality, more events, and more of the everyday labor that keeps a place running. We have watched it happen from the same office since 2012, and honestly, it is a good time to be in the people business here.

When to call

Why a local crew matters in Knoxville

We are your neighbors in South Knoxville, not a call center in another state.

When a worker does not show, it is your problem in the next hour, not next week. A short housekeeping crew means rooms do not turn before check-in. A missing hand on a job site can stall a pour or push a deadline. We answer those calls fast because we are right here, ten minutes from downtown on Chapman Highway, and because this has been a family company since Bill Peterson started it in 2012. We know the difference one reliable person makes on a bad morning, and we treat the people we place like family, including the ones the world has lost track of. You are not a ticket in a national system. You are a neighbor we want to keep.

Being local is not just a feeling, it is how we answer the phone faster. Our dispatch sits on Chapman Highway, ten minutes from downtown and right on the artery that runs south toward Sevier County and the mountains. From here we know which way the traffic moves before a Vols game, which side of town a job site is on when you say Hardin Valley or Strawberry Plains, and how long it really takes to get a crew from our door to yours. A call center two states away is guessing at all of that. We are not. When you tell us where you are, we already know, and that is half the speed right there.

What to expect when you call us

A real person, the same day. No phone trees, no runaround.

Call 865-247-4957 and you reach our crew here in South Knoxville. We ask three simple things: what you need, how many, and when. From there we can usually have you set up in under 15 minutes, with same-day dispatch during business hours. To put a worker on payroll, all it takes is two forms of ID for the I-9, the same paperwork any new hire fills out, and we handle everything else. Tell us what you need. We will get the right people to you, ready today.

One crew for a city that runs on many shifts

Knoxville does not work one schedule, so neither do we.

The thing about staffing a whole city is that everybody needs people at a different hour. A distribution center near the interstate is loading trucks at six in the morning. A downtown hotel is turning rooms by mid-morning and setting a banquet by late afternoon. A concrete crew wants its extra hands before the pour, not after. A festival in the Old City needs setup the day before and teardown the minute the last band stops. We sit in the middle of all of that and move people to where the gap is, because we are pulling from one deep pool of pre-screened, ready-today workers instead of scrambling fresh for every order. Honestly, that is the quiet advantage of working with a local crew that has been here since 2012: we have already met the person you need.

It also means you are not starting from scratch every time your week changes. Plenty of Knoxville employers keep a standing order with us, the same faces week after week, and then call for extra hands when a deadline moves up or someone calls in. Whether you need one general laborer for a single morning or a full crew for a busy season, the door is the same, the rate is the same, and the people are folks we already know and trust. We would rather build something steady with you than win a one-time order. That is just how a family company thinks.

Smoky Mountain corridor

We serve the entire Sevier County tourism and construction economy.

Safety & compliance

Every worker we send is pre-screened before dispatch, and every worker is a W-2 employee of ours, not a 1099 contractor you have to worry about. We carry the payroll, the payroll taxes, the workers’ comp, and the screening, all folded into one simple rate per worker. That means one invoice for you and no surprise paperwork. Drug testing and background checks are available on request, so just tell us your site rules when you place your order and we will set it up before anyone arrives. You focus on your operation. We will handle the employment side.
