From Falmouth docks and the far-west distribution depots, a lot of freight leaves Devon & Cornwall every night. Temporary drivers keep those vehicles moving when a regular driver is off.
Demand across Devon & Cornwall comes from chilled and ambient food distribution, marine services, aggregates and china clay logistics and independent hauliers. Each booking starts with the licence category, the number of drivers and the date.
The main freight links across Devon & Cornwall are the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. They run day and night. So does the need for drivers.

For operators across Devon & Cornwall, the cost of an empty seat is a vehicle that does not move. Temporary cover keeps the work flowing while longer-term staffing decisions are 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:
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.
Share the start date and the expected duration. We will be straight with you about what we can cover.
