Highlands & Islands

Dingwall driver cover, sorted

Temporary driving recruitment built around the vehicle, the route and the start time.

Sites across Fort William, Oban and the west-coast ferry ports depend on drivers turning up on time. We brief every temporary driver on the site, the vehicle and the first job before they arrive.

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

The main freight links across the Highlands & Islands are the A9 and A82, Inverness Airport and the ferry links to Orkney, Shetland and the Western Isles. They run day and night. So does the need for drivers.

Reasons for cover

Cover booked for

How it works

What happens when you ask

Tell us the requirement

Location, driver category, number of drivers, start date and expected duration: the same details the request form asks for.

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

Details that speed up a booking

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 Scotland 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 site address or postcode where the vehicle is based
  • The licence category the vehicle needs
  • How long you expect the cover to last
  • Who the driver reports to on arrival
Compliance

Licence and paperwork

Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before the first shift — and ADR or HIAB tickets where the job needs them.

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

Planning peak cover?

A few details are enough to start: how many drivers, which licence and from when.

Driving FAQs

Before you book

How do I book a temporary driver?

Send a driver request with your location, the driver category, the number of drivers, the start date and the expected duration. We confirm the details with you and then begin sourcing.

What checks do you run on temporary drivers?

Licence categories and endorsements, Driver CPC status and card expiry, the digital tachograph card and right to work — plus ADR or HIAB where the work needs it.

Can you cover a single shift?

Yes. We cover single shifts and short gaps as well as runs of weeks and ongoing assignments.

Do you cover towns near Dingwall?

Yes. We book drivers for sites across Scotland, not only for Dingwall itself. Tell us where the vehicle is based.

Yes. A single request can include Class 1, Class 2, 7.5 tonne and van drivers. List each category and the number of drivers you need for it.
