Job Description

You'll load and offload trucks at a parcel sorting hub in Vereeniging so every delivery goes out full and correct. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

You'll be based at a parcel sorting hub in Vereeniging. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What you'll actually do

  • Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
  • Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit

Must-haves

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

Helpful, not essential

  • A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)
  • Past work as a driver's assistant
  • Basic furniture assembly skills

What you get

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: police clearance if you already have one, CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work plus clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.
