Job Description

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a container unpacking yard in Springs wants. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

Location: Springs, Gauteng. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.

What you'll actually do

  • Stack returns and empties neatly for the next count
  • Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first
  • Get proof-of-delivery notes signed and stamped at each drop
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Strap and secure loads so nothing shifts in transit
  • Offload containers by hand, counting cartons as they come off

You'll need

  • Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
  • Willing to travel on routes that return late
  • Grade 9 or higher and able to read a delivery note
  • Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
  • No criminal record

Nice if you have

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

On offer

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

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work, clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp plus police clearance if you already have one.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 5 working days.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
  • Say what hours you can start. Loading bays often hire the person who can be there at 04:00 without fail.
