TIER 2
Port Gellhorn Warehouse Heist
Industrial warehouse with forklift puzzle elements (leak). Crates contain weapons or contraband. Multiple exit routes via dockside.
The Job
Per the verified 2022 leak, Port Gellhorn reads as a mid-tier smuggling job built around a warehouse interior in the Port Gellhorn industrial zone. Leak footage shows forklift puzzle elements and crates holding either weapons or contraband, with multiple dockside exit routes. That layout points to two genuinely distinct runs: a stealth approach that leans on the tech role to clear the floor quietly and use the forklift to stage crates, versus a loud approach that turns the docks into a shooting gallery. The 3-4 star police response (leak-indicated) is the hinge — inference: loud almost certainly spikes you toward 4 stars fast, so the multiple dockside exits exist to give the driver real escape options rather than one chokepoint. Risk-wise this sits squarely medium: a 15-20 min job with a three-person crew, not a finale-grade marathon. The forklift mechanic is the wildcard — speculative whether it gates the loot or just slows extraction, but it likely rewards crews that pre-stage before going loud.
The GTA$80K-250K range (estimate) tracks a medium-size, 3-4 star smuggling job: the floor reflects a clean fast run, the ceiling a fully-cleared contraband haul. The wide spread likely reflects whether crates roll weapons or higher-value contraband.

Operator Tips
- Bring the tech for stealth — the leak's forklift puzzle and crate-clearing point to a setup the tech role unlocks before guns come out.
- Stage crates with the forklift before triggering loud; the 3-4 star response means you do not want to be solving a puzzle while cops stack the docks.
- Map your dockside exit before the alarm — the leak shows multiple routes, so assign the driver one primary and one fallback.
- Run the full driver/gunner/tech trio; at 3-4 stars and 15-20 min, a missing gunner on the loud path leaves the docks uncovered.
- Treat 80K as the floor, not the target — pushing toward the 250K ceiling (estimate) likely means fully clearing contraband crates, not a smash-and-grab.
FAQ
How much does the Port Gellhorn Warehouse Heist pay?
Estimated GTA$80,000-250,000. That is a pre-release estimate, not a confirmed figure — the spread likely depends on whether crates hold weapons or higher-value contraband and how cleanly you clear them.
Can I do Port Gellhorn solo or stealth?
The leak confirms a stealth approach is supported alongside loud, but the record lists a three-role crew (driver, gunner, tech). A true solo run is speculative — the forklift puzzle and 3-4 star response suggest it is built for a small crew, not one player.
What crew do I need for Port Gellhorn?
Three roles per the record: driver, gunner, and tech. The tech matters most on the stealth path and the forklift elements; the gunner covers the docks if you go loud at 3-4 stars.
