A temporary driving agency for Acton operators — drivers sourced against your booking, with licence and compliance checks done before they arrive.
The licence, the shift pattern and the vehicle come first in every booking.
From London Gateway and the Thames Gateway, Park Royal, Enfield and the Heathrow airfreight belt, a lot of freight leaves London & the South East every night. Temporary drivers keep those vehicles moving when a regular driver is off.
Whether you run artics out of a distribution centre or vans on parcel rounds, temporary cover for Acton starts with a short call about the work.
Driver demand across London & the South East follows urban fulfilment and last-mile operators, grocery and convenience distribution, airfreight handlers and metropolitan 3PLs, so cover requests rise and fall with their calendars.
London's ULEZ covers vans up to 3.5 tonnes across all London boroughs. Heavier lorries fall under the Low Emission Zone and lorries over 12 tonnes need an HGV safety permit, so we check the vehicle before booking.
Artic drivers for nights, days and nights out.

Some operators use temporary drivers to trial a new route or contract before committing to permanent hires. Others use them to flex with demand week by week.
Temporary cover works best when the driver is briefed properly. We pass on the site details, the vehicle and the contact on the day so nothing is left to chance.
A driver request usually covers:
We check the paperwork that decides whether a driver can legally do the job: licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC and card dates, tacho card and right to work.
Paperwork is the minimum. We also look at the work a driver has done recently, the vehicles they have driven and whether the shift pattern suits them.
