Temporary drivers for Selkirk

Flexible driver capacity for busy weeks, quiet cover for planned absence.

Operators across southern Scotland load and deliver at sites such as the Borders towns along the A7 and A68 and the A1 coastal corridor. We match drivers who are comfortable with that geography and the roads that serve it — the A74(M), the M74, the A7, the A1 and the Cairnryan ferry terminals.

We supply drivers to Irish Sea ferry and groupage operators, dairy and agri-food processing, forestry and timber haulage and regional 3PLs. Class 1 for trunking, Class 2 for rigid rounds, 7.5 tonne for regional multi-drop and vans for final-mile work.

Much of the vehicle movement across southern Scotland starts at the Borders towns along the A7 and A68 and the A1 coastal corridor, where early departures leave little room for a late driver.

Why operators book temporary cover

Cover booked for

How it works

How a driver booking works

Tell us the requirement

Location, driver category, number of drivers, start date and expected duration: the same details the request form asks for.

You approve the driver

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

Planned and urgent requests

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

Planning cover

What to put in a driver request

For operators across southern Scotland, 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.

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:

  • How many drivers you need
  • The start date and first shift time
  • The shift pattern: days, nights, weekends or a mix
  • Any specialist tickets such as ADR or HIAB
Compliance

Checked before they start

Compliance comes before confirmation. Licence entitlement, endorsements, Driver CPC currency, the tacho card and right to work are all checked first.

We ask drivers about the routes, vehicles and shift patterns they know best, so the match rests on experience rather than on a licence alone.
