Temporary Driving Recruitment in Boston

From a single Class 1 shift to a fleet of van drivers for peak, we cover driving requirements across Boston and the surrounding area.

East Midlands

A driving agency for Boston operators

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

Sites across DIRFT (Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal), Magna Park and the big-shed parks on the M1 and A14 depend on drivers turning up on time. We brief every temporary driver on the site, the vehicle and the first job before they arrive.

Whether you run artics out of a distribution centre or vans on parcel rounds, temporary cover for Boston starts with a short call about the work.

Driver demand across the East Midlands follows national distribution centres, airfreight and express operators, e-commerce fulfilment and contract logistics, so cover requests rise and fall with their calendars.

What to put in a driver request

Most temporary driving requests start with a problem that cannot wait: a driver off sick, a holiday clash or a contract that starts before a permanent hire can be made.

Driving work across the East Midlands is rarely one thing. The same operator may need a Class 1 driver for a night trunk and a van driver for the morning round. One request can cover both.

A driver request usually covers:

  • How many drivers you need
  • The start date and first shift time
  • The shift pattern: days, nights, weekends or a mix
  • Who the driver reports to on arrival
Compliance

Checks on every driver

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.
