Delivery Assistant (Furniture Trucks) – Immediate Start

Trucks come in heavy and leave loaded at this container unpacking yard in Pietermaritzburg, and you move the stock in between. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

This post is in Pietermaritzburg (KwaZulu-Natal). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

• Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
• Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
• Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
• Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
• Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises

• No criminal record
• Friendly with customers at the door
• Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
• Willing to travel on routes that return late
• Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
• Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note

• Basic furniture assembly skills
• Past work as a driver's assistant

• Uniform and safety shoes provided
• Meal allowance on long-route days
• Help to get your own licence through the company later

• Keep your CV to one page with your phone number big and clear. Depot managers phone, they seldom email.
• Say what hours you can start. Loading bays often hire the person who can be there at 04:00 without fail.
