Temporary Driving Recruitment in Bideford

Temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van drivers for operations in and around Bideford, checked before the first shift and matched to the vehicle you run.

Devon & Cornwall

Keeping Bideford fleets on the road

Drivers matched to the work, not just to a postcode.

Operators across Devon & Cornwall load and deliver at sites such as the A30 and A38 trunk corridors and the Exeter distribution parks. We match drivers who are comfortable with that geography and the roads that serve it — the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth.

Hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets across Devon & Cornwall book temporary drivers with us for planned and unplanned gaps.

Work for food and drink and agri-food processing, marine and port logistics, tourism-driven retail distribution and regional hauliers keeps artics, rigids and vans busy across Devon & Cornwall through the year.

How it works

How we fill the seat

You approve the driver

We share who is starting and when. Nothing is confirmed until you are happy with it.

First-shift briefing

The driver knows the site, the vehicle, the start time and who to report to before arriving.

Mixed-category bookings

One request can cover artic, rigid and van drivers for the same operation.

Planning cover

What to put in a driver request

Planned cover is the easiest to arrange. Holidays, training days and known peaks can be booked in advance so the transport office is not firefighting on the day.

Freight moving through the South West relies on drivers turning up with the right entitlement for the vehicle. A mismatch is not a small problem: it stops the vehicle leaving the yard.

A driver request usually covers:

  • The licence category the vehicle needs
  • The start date and first shift time
  • The type of work: trunking, rigid rounds, multi-drop or delivery
  • Any specialist tickets such as ADR or HIAB
Compliance

Compliance first

Every booking is checked the same way: licence entitlement against the vehicle, a current Driver CPC for lorry work, a valid tachograph card and proof of right to work.

Drivers are told exactly what the booking involves before they accept it: the site, the vehicle, the hours and the type of work.
