Tayside & Fife

St Andrews driver cover, sorted

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

Sites across the A9 and A90 corridors and the Angus food-processing belt depend on drivers turning up on time. We brief every temporary driver on the site, the vehicle and the first job before they arrive.

Hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets across Tayside & Fife book temporary drivers with us for planned and unplanned gaps.

The main freight links across Tayside & Fife are the A90, M90 and A9, the Port of Dundee and Rosyth. They run day and night. So does the need for drivers.

How it works

The booking, step by step

Compliance is confirmed

Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are checked before any name reaches you.

Planned and urgent requests

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

Planning cover

Planning temporary cover

Most temporary driving requests start with a problem that cannot wait: a driver off sick, a holiday clash or a contract that starts before a permanent hire can be made.

Operators in St Andrews 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 licence category the vehicle needs
  • The start date and first shift time
  • Any specialist tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • Who the driver reports to on arrival
Compliance

Licence and paperwork

Before a driver starts we confirm the licence categories held and review endorsements, check Driver CPC status and card expiry, confirm the digital tachograph card and establish right to work.

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