Scotland

Filling driving seats in Strathaven

Temporary driving recruitment built around the vehicle, the route and the start time.

Sites across the M74 and M9 corridors and the Clyde and Forth port estates 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 Scotland book temporary drivers with us for planned and unplanned gaps.

Work for whisky and food and drink distribution, retail and grocery DCs, port and intermodal operators and Scottish 3PLs keeps artics, rigids and vans busy across Scotland through the year.

How it works

From request to first shift

We shortlist by licence

Drivers are matched on the category the vehicle needs first, then on experience of the work.

You approve the driver

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

First-shift briefing

The driver knows the site, the vehicle, the start time and who to report to before arriving.

Planning cover

Details that speed up a booking

Cover is flexible by design. A booking can be a single shift, a fortnight of holiday cover or an assignment that runs for months. It can change as your workload does.

Operators in Strathaven 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 site address or postcode where the vehicle is based
  • How many drivers you need
  • Any specialist tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • Who the driver reports to on arrival
Compliance

The paperwork we confirm

No driver is confirmed until the licence category matches the vehicle and the Driver CPC, tachograph card and right-to-work checks are complete.

Reliability matters as much as the licence. We confirm availability for the whole booking before a driver is put forward.
