Job Description

Delivery days start early in Springs, and a furniture retailer warehouse needs you on the bay before the trucks roll. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

Home base is a furniture retailer warehouse on the Springs side of Gauteng. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

What you'll actually do

Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit

You'll need

Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
Friendly with customers at the door
Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
Willing to travel on routes that return late
No criminal record
Able to lift and carry heavy items all day

Extra points for

Basic furniture assembly skills
A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)

What you get

Meal allowance on long-route days
Uniform and safety shoes provided
Help to get your own licence through the company later
Route-completion incentives in busy months

Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Springs really suit you before you apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work, clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp plus police clearance if you already have one.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Springs.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Tips to get shortlisted

Keep your CV to one page with your phone number big and clear. Depot managers phone, they seldom email.
If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
