Temporary 7.5 Tonne Drivers in Gloucester

7.5 tonne cover for Gloucester and the South West: drivers booked around your drops, your windows and your crew.

South West

Keeping Gloucester multi-drop moving

Temporary C1 drivers who have worked this kind of round before.

Work for grocery and retail distribution, port and import logistics, aerospace supply chains and national 3PLs often means timed slots and busy loading bays. We match drivers who handle that kind of day calmly.

If the work includes a parcel trunk or a courier leg, say so — it changes the pattern of the day.

Furniture, trade and parcel rounds from the Avonmouth and Severnside parks, the M4/M5 junction and the distribution sites along the M5 each need a slightly different driver, so we ask which one you run.

Urgent cover gets a straight answer on what we can confirm.

7.5 tonne planning

Setting up multi-drop cover

Across the South West, 7.5 tonne work grows at the same times each year: spring moves, summer events and the pre-Christmas rush. Temporary drivers take the extra rounds.

Across the South West, 7.5 tonne work often runs from smaller depots and retail back-of-house. The first shift goes better when the driver knows where to collect the keys and the paperwork.

For a 7.5 tonne request, include:

  • The body: box, curtainside or Luton
  • Whether a second person rides along
  • The start time and the usual finish
  • Who the driver reports to on the first morning
Compliance

Before the keys change hands

We confirm C1 entitlement, the Driver CPC card, right to work and a digital tachograph card where the vehicle and the work require one.

Two-person and furniture work needs a driver who can lead the crew and handle the customer. We confirm that before a driver is put forward.

7.5 tonne FAQs

Your 7.5 tonne questions

Can you cover two-person deliveries?

Yes. Tell us about the crew and the work at the door so we brief the driver properly. Two-person rounds need a driver who leads the job, checks the access and gets the paperwork signed.

How much notice do you need?

Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.

Do you cover depots near Gloucester?

Yes. We book 7.5 tonne drivers for sites across the South West. Tell us where the vehicle is based and where the first drop is.

Do you also recruit permanent 7.5 tonne drivers?

Yes. Our permanent driver desk places 7.5 tonne drivers onto your payroll when you want a permanent hire. Temporary cover can keep the round going while that search runs.

Do drivers help with unloading?

Yes, where the work needs it. Say what the driver will lift and whether a second person is on the round, so the driver arrives expecting the physical side of the job.
