Van cover for Duns

Temporary delivery drivers who have run multi-drop before.

Across southern Scotland, courier and same-day work arrives at short notice. We give a straight answer on what we can cover the same day.

Trade and wholesale runs have fewer stops and heavier goods than parcel rounds. We match the driver accordingly.

Across southern Scotland, trunk flows arrive via the A74(M), the M74, the A7, the A1 and the Cairnryan ferry terminals; van rounds take the parcels from there to the customer's door.

Van planning

Setting up delivery cover

Across southern Scotland, final-mile demand changes week to week. Temporary drivers let a depot add or drop rounds without changing its permanent team.

Residential rounds in Duns mean narrow streets, parking restrictions and a lot of stops in a short time. We match drivers who are used to that pace.

For a van driver request, include:

  • The van size: small, panel, long wheelbase or Luton
  • Which handheld scanner or delivery app the round uses
  • How many drivers and for how many days
  • Any two-person or heavy items on the round
Compliance

What every van driver we supply holds

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

Peak rounds are long days. We confirm the driver is available for the whole booking before they are put forward.

van FAQs

Van drivers in Duns — FAQs

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.

Can you cover peak season?

Yes. Peak is one of the most common reasons operators book temporary van drivers. Tell us the dates and volumes early so the extra rounds are staffed before the rush.

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.

Do you supply drivers for electric vans?

Yes. Tell us the vans are electric and how charging works on the round so we match a driver who has driven one. Range planning and charging stops change how a day is paced.

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.
