From a single Class 1 shift to a fleet of van drivers for peak, we cover driving requirements across Gravesend and the surrounding area.
Flexible driver capacity for busy weeks, quiet cover for planned absence.
From the Dartford and Thames-side parks and the M20 route to the Channel, a lot of freight leaves the South East every night. Temporary drivers keep those vehicles moving when a regular driver is off.
Busy periods across the South East rarely line up with your permanent headcount. Temporary drivers bridge the difference without adding to it.
Freight across the South East is served by the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover. A missing driver on any of those routes holds up everything behind it.
Tractor-unit cover for trunk routes and hub work.

Van drivers in GravesendLocation, driver category, number of drivers, start date and expected duration: the same details the request form asks for.
Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are checked before any name reaches you.
Book holiday cover weeks ahead or send a same-week request. Both start the same way.
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.
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:
Compliance comes before confirmation. Licence entitlement, endorsements, Driver CPC currency, the tacho card and right to work are all checked first.
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.
Tell us about the work in Gravesend and we will come back with the drivers we can confirm.
Yes. We source temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van drivers for work across the South East. Tell us the site, the licence and the start time and we will confirm the drivers we can supply.
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.
The vehicle and trailer type, the route profile, the start time and whether the work involves nights out, multi-drop or specialist tickets.
Yes. Night trunking, early starts and weekend shifts can all be booked. Tell us the start time and the pattern so we match drivers who want that work.
Tell us as soon as you know. Cover can be extended shift by shift or turned into an ongoing assignment.
