Van driver recruitment for Melrose

Multi-drop is a skill: route sense, pace and good manners at the door.

Final-mile rounds from the A74(M) corridor and the Dumfries and Annan industrial estates often start early and finish when the last parcel is delivered. We book drivers who expect that pattern.

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

Final-mile demand across southern Scotland comes from Irish Sea ferry and groupage operators, dairy and agri-food processing, forestry and timber haulage and regional 3PLs. It peaks hard in the weeks before Christmas.

Van & Multi-Drop

The rounds we cover

Van work that flexes with demand.

How it works

How we match the driver

You send the round

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

The driver is briefed

The vehicle, the round, the scanner or app and who to report to.

Same-day requests

Urgent cover gets a straight answer on what we can confirm.

Van planning

What we ask about the route

Drivers who have used a delivery app or scanner before start faster, so we ask which system the round runs on.

Medical, pharmacy and high-value deliveries carry extra care over handling and signatures. The brief sets out exactly what the round requires.

For a van driver request, include:

  • The van size: small, panel, long wheelbase or Luton
  • The typical number of stops
  • The delivery area and any tricky access
  • Which handheld scanner or delivery app the round uses
Compliance

The checks that matter

No van driver is confirmed until the licence and right-to-work checks are complete and the vehicle suits the licence held.

We ask van drivers which rounds, vans and scanners they have used, then match the work to that experience.

van FAQs

Common questions

Can you supply temporary van drivers in Melrose?

Yes. We source temporary van, multi-drop and delivery drivers for parcel, courier, trade and e-commerce work across southern Scotland. Tell us the round, the vehicle and the start date to get started.

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 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.

Can you supply several van drivers at once?

Yes. Tell us how many drivers you need and when each one starts. A depot adding rounds for peak can build numbers up week by week.

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.
