Keep vehicles moving across London & the South East with temporary drivers booked around your shifts, from one night to an ongoing assignment.
The licence, the shift pattern and the vehicle come first in every booking.
Lewisham is served by the capital's dense network of fulfilment, parcel and airfreight operations, which makes good permanent people both vital and hard to keep. When an operator here loses a driver for a week, the rota still has to run — that is the gap we cover.
We supply drivers to last-mile and parcel carriers, grocery and e-commerce fulfilment, airfreight forwarders and national 3PLs. Class 1 for trunking, Class 2 for rigid rounds, 7.5 tonne for regional multi-drop and vans for final-mile work.
Freight across London & the South East is served by the M25 orbital, the A13 and A406, Heathrow Airport and the deep-water ports at London Gateway and Tilbury. A missing driver on any of those routes holds up everything behind it.
London's ULEZ covers vans up to 3.5 tonnes across all London boroughs. Heavier lorries fall under the Low Emission Zone and lorries over 12 tonnes need an HGV safety permit, so we check the vehicle before booking.
Class 1 cover when a regular artic driver is off.

Temporary drivers let Lewisham operators cover a gap without changing their permanent headcount. The rota stays covered while the regular team takes leave, recovers from illness or absorbs a busy month.
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:
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.
