HGV Driver & Warehouse Staff Agency in Dartmouth
Vetted temporary drivers and warehouse staff supplied to operators in Dartmouth and the South West, with digital timesheets and one consolidated weekly invoice.
Cover for operations in Dartmouth
The seasonal swing around Dartmouth is among the largest in England — summer volumes several times the winter baseline — and no operator carries that difference in permanent headcount.
Transport around Dartmouth works off the M5 south of Exeter, the A30, the A38 Devon Expressway, the A390 and A361, Cornwall Airport Newquay and the ports at Plymouth, Falmouth and Fowey, with volume concentrated in the Marsh Barton Trading Estate and Sowton Industrial Estate at Exeter. The operators booking temporary cover here are mostly regional foodservice and drinks distributors supplying hospitality across the peninsula.
Hospitality across the peninsula orders more often and in smaller quantities in season, which raises the drop count and the driver requirement more than the tonnage suggests.
Early AM foodservice and drinks deliveries into hotels, pubs and holiday parks, finished before the roads fill up.
Most cover requests arrive for the wrong reason. A driver rings in sick at 04:30 and the load is booked for 06:00 — at that point the agency is choosing between the wrong person and nobody. Standing patterns booked a week ahead fill; emergencies at dawn frequently do not and an agency that pretends otherwise is one that sends the wrong person.
We supply Dartmouth from a national operation. That means the pool is wider than any single town could offer: licence categories, shift patterns and site experience are matched to what you actually booked. The worker is fully checked before you are given a name.
Before anyone starts
Every check below happens before a worker is confirmed onto your booking, not after they arrive.
Workers on assignment for 12 weeks in the same role qualify for equal treatment on pay and basic conditions under the Agency Workers Regulations 2010. We track that week count from the first shift and tell you before it lands, rather than after.
These are checked at registration and then re-checked on a rolling 90-day cycle, because a licence that was clean in March tells you nothing about a driver in September.
Pay, honestly
Everything runs through the timesheet. Hours logged, sent to you, approved or rejected with a reason, then billed once a week in a single consolidated invoice.
For a standing weekly pattern, cover is arranged in advance and the question does not really arise. For ad-hoc shifts, next day is the standard and same day is best-efforts, agreed on the call.

Before you ask
What temporary staff can you supply in Dartmouth?
HGV Class 1 and Class 2 drivers, 7.5 tonne and van drivers, forklift drivers and warehouse operatives. Specialist work such as ADR, HIAB, tanker and PSV is handled by our national desks rather than locally.
What checks do you run before a worker starts in Dartmouth?
Licence entitlement is verified with a DVLA check, Driver CPC and tachograph cards are confirmed in date, right to work is evidenced and two work references are taken. All of it is completed before the worker is confirmed to you, not after they arrive.
How does booking temporary staff in Dartmouth work?
You send the requirement, we confirm capacity, the compliance gate runs, then the worker attends. Hours are logged against the booking rather than reconstructed afterwards from a paper docket.
