Merseyside

Liverpool driver cover, sorted

Drivers matched to the work, not just to a postcode.

Operators across Merseyside load and deliver at sites such as the Liverpool2 deep-water terminal, Knowsley, Sefton and the Estuary corridor. We match drivers who are comfortable with that geography and the roads that serve it — the M57, M58, M62 and M6, Liverpool John Lennon Airport and the Port of Liverpool.

Demand across Merseyside comes from retail and grocery DCs, national 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and port and container logistics. Each booking starts with the licence category, the number of drivers and the date.

Bookings across Merseyside can start at sites such as the Liverpool2 deep-water terminal, Knowsley, Sefton and the Estuary corridor, so we always confirm where the first shift begins.

How it works

From request to first shift

We shortlist by licence

Drivers are matched on the category the vehicle needs first, then on experience of the work.

Extending or ending cover

Tell us when the need changes. Cover can run on, step down or finish at the end of a shift.

Mixed-category bookings

One request can cover artic, rigid and van drivers for the same operation.

Planning cover

What we need from you

Cover is flexible by design. A booking can be a single shift, a fortnight of holiday cover or an assignment that runs for months. It can change as your workload does.

Operators in Liverpool often need cover at the same moments: school holidays, the run-up to Christmas and the first weeks of a new contract. Booking those peaks early gives the widest choice of drivers.

A driver request usually covers:

  • The site address or postcode where the vehicle is based
  • The start date and first shift time
  • How long you expect the cover to last
  • Who the driver reports to on arrival
Compliance

Licence and paperwork

No driver is confirmed until the licence category matches the vehicle and the Driver CPC, tachograph card and right-to-work checks are complete.

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.
