Temporary driving recruitment in Lockerbie

One agency for every licence category, booked around your operation.

Operations near Lockerbie run along the A74(M), A7 and A75, serving hauliers, food processors and timber and forestry supply chains. We book temporary drivers for sites across the Cairnryan ferry terminals and the A75 Irish Sea freight route and for work that runs along the A74(M), the M74, the A7, the A1 and the Cairnryan ferry terminals.

For Lockerbie operators we cover single shifts, runs of nights and assignments that last months. You tell us which; we plan around it.

Driver demand across southern Scotland follows cross-border hauliers, food and drink manufacturers, textiles and timber supply chains, so cover requests rise and fall with their calendars.

How it works

From request to first shift

You approve the driver

We share who is starting and when. Nothing is confirmed until you are happy with it.

Mixed-category bookings

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

Planned and urgent requests

Book holiday cover weeks ahead or send a same-week request. Both start the same way.

What we need from you

Some operators use temporary drivers to trial a new route or contract before committing to permanent hires. Others use them to flex with demand week by week.

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:

  • The site address or postcode where the vehicle is based
  • The start date and first shift time
  • The type of work: trunking, rigid rounds, multi-drop or delivery
  • Whether the booking could become ongoing
Compliance

Before the first shift

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

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