What we need from you

For operators across Tayside & Fife, the cost of an empty seat is a vehicle that does not move. Temporary cover keeps the work flowing while longer-term staffing decisions are made.

Shift patterns vary more in driving than in almost any other logistics role: early starts for store deliveries, nights for trunking and long days for multi-drop. We ask about the pattern before we match.

A driver request usually covers:

  • The site address or postcode where the vehicle is based
  • How many drivers you need
  • The start date and first shift time
  • How long you expect the cover to last
Compliance

What we check

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.

Where a job involves manual handling, customer contact or specialist equipment, we tell the driver before they accept the booking.
