First-Line Supervisors of Transportation and Material Moving Workers, Except Aircraft Cargo Handling salary in North Carolina

I would start with the middle, not the top of the range. For first-line supervisors of transportation and material moving workers, except aircraft cargo handling in North Carolina, that middle figure was $60,070 a year. It gives you a steadier base for rent, bills and savings plans than a headline salary that only a small share of workers actually reach.

The middle half of workers earned from $48,490 to $74,990 a year. Do not read the percentile range as good versus bad jobs. It mostly reflects experience, hours, employer type and local demand. A new starter near the 25th percentile and a veteran near the 75th can both be fairly paid for their stage.

ESTIMATED TAKE-HOME PAY

$48,558 a year
$4,047 a month
Federal tax $5,028 · FICA $4,595 · State tax $1,888

Caveat: the North Carolina rate is from NCDOR, but the $12,750 deduction comes from the statute text, not an NCDOR deduction page.

Read this before you use the take-home figure. It is a single-filer estimate using the 2026 standard deduction. It leaves out credits, other deductions, local taxes, and retirement or health deductions. Your actual paycheck can differ, and for states without a verified 2026 table in this build, state tax is still to be added once its table is verified.
