South East

Newhaven van cover for peak and beyond

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

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

Panel van, long wheelbase, Luton or electric: tell us the vehicle and we match a driver who has driven it.

Van rounds from the M3, M4 and M20 corridors and the airfreight hubs at Gatwick and Heathrow fan out into residential streets, retail parks and business estates across the South East.

What to include in a van driver request

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

Multi-drop van work is judged at the door: the right parcel, a photo or signature and a customer who is happy to see the driver again.

For a van driver request, include:

  • The van size: small, panel, long wheelbase or Luton
  • Whether the vans are electric
  • The typical number of stops
  • The delivery area and any tricky access
Compliance

Verified every time

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

Recent parcel or courier work is the best guide to pace on a round in Newhaven, so it is the first thing we look at.

van FAQs

Before you book

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.

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.

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.
