Code 14 Tautliner Driver (Long Distance)

You'll move heavy loads between Atlantis and depots across the country for a cross-border transport company. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

This post is in Atlantis (Western Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

• Carry out fuel stops with the fuel card and keep the slips
• Drive planned routes and stop only at approved truck stops
• Check the load is secured, strapped or sealed before leaving the depot
• Check reefer temperatures and record them on cold-chain loads
• Keep the cab clean and report defects at the end of each trip
• Keep the logbook and tachograph or telematics records up to date

• Medically fit, including eyesight
• Valid PrDP (G for goods, D for dangerous goods on tankers)
• Able to be away from home for several nights at a time
• Clean driving record with no serious accidents

• Dangerous goods training certificate
• Experience on a specific trailer type (tanker, tipper, reefer)
• Knowledge of SADC border routes

• Well-maintained trucks with sleeper cabs
• Overnight and subsistence allowance on trips
• Paid PrDP renewal
• Monthly safe-driving and fuel-saving bonus

• List the trailer types and routes you have done, for example "tautliner, JHB to Durban, 4 years".
• Put your licence code, PrDP expiry date and years on Code 14 in the first three lines. Transport managers scan for those first.
