Job Description

Delivery days start early in Bellville, and a parcel sorting hub needs you on the bay before the trucks roll. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

The site is in Bellville; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What your day looks like

  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop

Must-haves

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

Extra points for

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

On offer

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