Job Description

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a furniture retailer warehouse in Bloemfontein wants. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

This post is in Bloemfontein (Free State). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

What your day looks like

  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
  • Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts

Must-haves

  • No criminal record
  • Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
  • Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
  • Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
  • Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note

What you get

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

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp plus police clearance if you already have one.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 9 working days.

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

  • 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.
