Driving recruitment for Redbridge and London & the South East: temporary drivers for holiday gaps, sickness, seasonal peaks and new contracts.
Temporary driving recruitment built around the vehicle, the route and the start time.
Redbridge 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. We book temporary drivers for sites across the London Gateway and Tilbury corridors and the north London depots and for work that runs along the M25 orbital, the A13 and A406, Heathrow Airport and the deep-water ports at London Gateway and Tilbury.
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.
Across London & the South East, sites such as the London Gateway and Tilbury corridors and the north London depots need drivers for every kind of vehicle, from artics on trunk work to vans on final-mile rounds.
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.

Van drivers in RedbridgeLocation, driver category, number of drivers, start date and expected duration: the same details the request form asks for.
Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are checked before any name reaches you.
One request can cover artic, rigid and van drivers for the same operation.
Planned cover is the easiest to arrange. Holidays, training days and known peaks can be booked in advance so the transport office is not firefighting on the day.
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.
For Redbridge bookings, recent experience of the same kind of work matters more than years behind the wheel.
