South West

Temporary driving recruitment in Yeovil

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

Yeovil draws on the South West's distribution and port-logistics base, concentrated around the M5 corridor. Across the South West, driving work runs out of sites such as the Avonmouth and Severnside estates, so we ask where the vehicle is based before anything else.

We supply drivers to port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains 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.

The main freight links across the South West are the M5, M4 and A38, Bristol Airport and the Port of Bristol at Avonmouth and Royal Portbury. They run day and night. So does the need for drivers.

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.

Extending or ending cover

Tell us when the need changes. Cover can run on, step down or finish at the end of a shift.

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 Yeovil 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
  • The licence category the vehicle needs
  • The shift pattern: days, nights, weekends or a mix
  • Whether the booking could become ongoing
Compliance

Before the first shift

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

A good temporary driver arrives on time, reads the site rules and treats the vehicle as if it were their own. That is the standard we match against.

Your questions answered

Yes. We book drivers for sites across the South West, not only for Yeovil itself. Tell us where the vehicle is based.

What information helps you match a driver?

The vehicle and trailer type, the route profile, the start time and whether the work involves nights out, multi-drop or specialist tickets.

Can you cover night work in Yeovil?

Yes. Night trunking, early starts and weekend shifts can all be booked. Tell us the start time and the pattern so we match drivers who want that work.

Can one request cover different driver types?

Yes. A single request can include Class 1, Class 2, 7.5 tonne and van drivers. List each category and the number of drivers you need for it.
