Delivery drivers for Bathgate operators

A full licence is the minimum; delivery experience is the brief.

Van work in Bathgate is where customers meet your business. We brief every driver on the standard you set at the door.

Two-person large-van jobs need a lead driver who handles the customer. Say if the booking needs one.

Across Scotland, trunk flows arrive via the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen; van rounds take the parcels from there to the customer's door.

Van planning

Setting up delivery cover

A van without a driver means parcels that do not arrive. Temporary van cover in Bathgate keeps the delivery promise when volume rises or a driver is off.

Same-day and courier work is less predictable than a fixed round. It suits drivers who are comfortable with changing jobs and longer distances.

For a van driver request, include:

  • The van size: small, panel, long wheelbase or Luton
  • The typical number of stops
  • Which handheld scanner or delivery app the round uses
  • Who the drivers report to at the depot
Compliance

Licence and right to work

Right to work, the licence and any endorsements are checked first. Route familiarity is the part we match on.

Customer contact is most of the job on a residential round. We look for drivers who are courteous at the door and careful with the goods.

van FAQs

Good to know

What licence does a van driver need?

A category B licence covers vehicles up to 3,500kg maximum authorised mass for petrol and diesel. We check the licence and review endorsements before a driver starts. Heavier petrol or diesel vans go to drivers with C1 entitlement.

Do you supply multi-drop drivers?

Yes. Tell us the stop count and the area so we match drivers used to that pace. Residential, rural and business rounds each suit a slightly different driver.

Can you supply drivers for same-day courier work?

Yes. Same-day requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm. Tell us the collection point, the destination and the time the job must land.

How much notice do you need?

Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Peak is best booked weeks ahead, when there is the widest choice of drivers.

Can drivers use our delivery app or scanner?

Yes. Tell us which system the round uses. We look for drivers who already know it, which saves time on the first shift.
