Driving recruitment for Kelso and Scotland: temporary drivers for holiday gaps, sickness, seasonal peaks and new contracts.
Flexible driver capacity for busy weeks, quiet cover for planned absence.
Operators across southern Scotland load and deliver at sites such as the Lockerbie and Gretna distribution points on the A74(M). We match drivers who are comfortable with that geography and the roads that serve it — the A74(M), the M74, the A7, the A1 and the Cairnryan ferry terminals.
Demand across southern Scotland comes from cross-border hauliers, food and drink manufacturers, textiles and timber supply chains. Each booking starts with the licence category, the number of drivers and the date.
Much of the vehicle movement across southern Scotland starts at the Lockerbie and Gretna distribution points on the A74(M), where early departures leave little room for a late driver.

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.
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:
No driver is confirmed until the licence category matches the vehicle and the Driver CPC, tachograph card and right-to-work checks are complete.
We ask drivers about the routes, vehicles and shift patterns they know best, so the match rests on experience rather than on a licence alone.
Give us the site, the vehicle and the pattern of work and we will do the rest.
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.
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.
