Job Description

You'll load and offload trucks at a furniture retailer warehouse in Boksburg so every delivery goes out full and correct. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

You'll be based at a furniture retailer warehouse in Boksburg. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What you'll actually do

  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
  • Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
  • Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
  • Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first

You'll need

  • Willing to travel on routes that return late
  • Friendly with customers at the door
  • Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
  • Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts

Nice if you have

  • Speaking more than one local language for customer drops
  • Basic furniture assembly skills
  • Past work as a driver's assistant

What's in it for you

  • Route-completion incentives in busy months
  • Help to get your own licence through the company later
  • Uniform and safety shoes provided

How to apply for this job

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work plus clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 6 working days.

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

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.
  • Say what hours you can start. Loading bays often hire the person who can be there at 04:00 without fail.
