Offloader (Container Depot)

Trucks come in heavy and leave loaded at this beverage depot in Somerset West, and you move the stock in between. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

Location: Somerset West, Western Cape. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.
