Driving recruitment for Stevenage and the East of England: temporary drivers for holiday gaps, sickness, seasonal peaks and new contracts.
Flexible driver capacity for busy weeks, quiet cover for planned absence.
From Felixstowe — the UK's largest container port — the A14 freight corridor and the parks along the M11 and A1(M), a lot of freight leaves the East of England every night. Temporary drivers keep those vehicles moving when a regular driver is off.
Demand across the East of England comes from port and container logistics, customs and forwarding businesses, FMCG and agri-food supply chains and national 3PLs. Each booking starts with the licence category, the number of drivers and the date.
The main freight links across the East of England are the A14, M11, A1(M) and A12, the Port of Felixstowe and London Stansted Airport. They run day and night. So does the need for drivers.

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.
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.
