Job Description

Trucks come in heavy and leave loaded at this parcel sorting hub in Mbombela, and you move the stock in between. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

The site is in Mbombela; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What your day looks like

  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
  • Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
  • Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
  • Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts

What you need

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

Extra points for

  • Basic furniture assembly skills
  • Speaking more than one local language for customer drops

On offer

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

How to apply

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Mbombela really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp, police clearance if you already have one plus CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.

How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Mbombela; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

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.

Before you hit apply

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