Job Description

You'll load and offload trucks at a container unpacking yard in Roodepoort so every delivery goes out full and correct. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

Home base is a container unpacking yard on the Roodepoort side of Gauteng. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

The work, day to day

  • Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
  • Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
  • Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
  • Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off

Must-haves

  • Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
  • No criminal record
  • Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
  • Comfortable starting from 04:00 or working late loading shifts
  • Willing to travel on routes that return late

Extra points for

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

What you get

  • 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

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Roodepoort really suit you before you apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: police clearance if you already have one, clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp plus CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.
