Logistics around Deal

What Deal sites get from us

Perishable freight shapes a good deal of the work near Deal. Imported produce, chilled goods and cut flowers all move on shelf-life rather than on convenience and the load does not wait while a driver is found.

Transport around Deal works off the M25, M3, M4, M20, M23 and M2, Gatwick Airport, the Channel ferry terminal at Dover, the shuttle terminal at Folkestone, DP World Southampton and the inland border facility at Sevington, with volume concentrated in the M25 and M23 sites around Crawley, Gatwick and Redhill. The operators booking temporary cover here are mostly chilled produce importers and packers moving fruit, salad and flowers on tight shelf-life.

Aerospace and manufacturing supply chains around the Solent and the Thames Valley run to build schedules, so line-feed and goods-in cover is wanted for the length of a programme and no longer.

Nights on trunk work between the south-coast ports and the Midlands parks, out and back inside a shift.

Shift cover is a planning problem dressed up as an emergency. Absence, holiday and peak are all foreseeable weeks ahead and the operations that never seem to be short are the ones treating cover as a standing arrangement rather than a series of crises.

Working nationally is what makes Deal cover reliable. A booking here draws on the whole pool. The worker is matched to the licence category and shift the site needs, with every check complete before the confirmation reaches you.

The checks we run

These are the checks that decide whether someone is confirmed. They are run against originals or live sources, not against a photocopy in a file.

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.

All of it is completed before the assignment is confirmed. A worker who fails any part of it does not get offered the shift, which occasionally means we hand a booking back.

Rates and payment

You get one invoice a week, not one per shift. Each line traces back to a specific assignment and an approved timesheet, so a query can be settled by looking at the line rather than by an argument about what was signed.

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.

Questions, answered

What temporary staff can you supply in Deal?

The seats that go unfilled most often: Class 1 and Class 2 drivers, 7.5 tonne and multi-drop van, forklift and general warehouse. Qualification-led work like tanker or Moffett is a national desk rather than a local booking.

What checks do you run before a worker starts in Deal?

The gate is the same for every booking: DVLA licence verification, Driver CPC currency, digital tachograph card validity, right to work and two work references. It is completed before a name reaches you and repeated on a 90-day cycle.

How does booking temporary staff in Deal 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.
