East Midlands

Keeping Hucknall deliveries on time

Temporary delivery drivers who have run multi-drop before.

Parcel and e-commerce volume across the East Midlands peaks hard. Temporary van drivers add rounds when the regular team is already full.

If the round uses a handheld scanner or a delivery app, say which. Drivers who know the system start faster.

Across the East Midlands, trunk flows arrive via the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal; van rounds take the parcels from there to the customer's door.

Van & Multi-Drop

Rounds we staff

Van cover across the main types of delivery work.

How it works

Three steps to cover

You send the round

Vehicle, stop count, area and start date. A short form or call is enough.

We match the driver

We look for drivers who have run multi-drop at a similar pace.

We check the licence

The licence, endorsements and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.

Van planning

Setting up delivery cover

Delivery volumes rise sharply for a few weeks at a time: Black Friday, Christmas and the January returns. Temporary drivers take the extra rounds only while they are needed.

Final-mile depots across the East Midlands often run early loading and a mid-morning departure. Drivers who expect that rhythm settle in on day one.

For a van driver request, include:

  • Whether the vans are electric
  • The typical number of stops
  • Which handheld scanner or delivery app the round uses
  • Any two-person or heavy items on the round
Compliance

Before the first drop

For larger vehicles we check the licence category matches the gross weight. A petrol or diesel van over 3,500kg needs C1 entitlement, not a car licence.

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

Your van driver questions

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 cover depots near Hucknall?

Yes. We book van drivers for depots across the East Midlands. Tell us where the vans are based and when loading starts.

Do you also recruit permanent delivery drivers?

Yes. Our permanent driver desk places drivers onto your payroll when you want a permanent hire. Temporary cover can run alongside the search.

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.
