Job Description

You'll load and offload trucks at a beverage depot in Pretoria East so every delivery goes out full and correct. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

This post is in Pretoria East (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

What you'll actually do

  • Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
  • Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
  • Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit

Must-haves

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

Helpful, not essential

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

What's in it for you

  • Meal allowance on long-route days
  • Uniform and safety shoes provided
  • Route-completion incentives in busy months
  • 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, CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work plus police clearance if you already have one.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 10 working days.
