Loading Bay Hand (Beverage Depot)

Delivery days start early in Bethlehem, and a container unpacking yard needs you on the bay before the trucks roll. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

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

• 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
• Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
• Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
• Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit

• Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
• Willing to travel on routes that return late
• Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
• Friendly with customers at the door

• Speaking more than one local language for customer drops
• Basic furniture assembly skills
• A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)

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

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