Because you'd need query the DB to actually get the data. Loading the
model would only be the first step. But that's not a good way to do
this, anyway.

In your controller:
$this->set(
'depots',
$this->YourModel->Depot->find('list')
);
Then use $depots in the view to populate your select list.
This is assuming that YourModel is associated with Depot and that the
table has a depot_id column ('YourModel.depot_id' key in the form).
