HGV Driver & Warehouse Staff Agency in Kenilworth

The sheds around Kenilworth are large enough that a single contract win changes the labour requirement for the whole area, sometimes on a fortnight's notice.

Transport around Kenilworth works off the M6, M5, M42, M40, M54 and the M6 Toll, Birmingham Airport and the rail freight terminals at Hams Hall and Birch Coppice, with volume concentrated in Prologis Park Midpoint and Peddimore at Minworth, either side of M42 junction 9. The operators booking temporary cover here are mostly contract logistics providers running client-dedicated warehouses and fleets.

Contract wins and losses in big-shed warehousing move labour requirements in blocks of dozens and the ramp-up runs on agency staff long before permanent recruitment catches up.

Nights across the big sheds, typically 22:00 to 06:00, which is where the shortage runs deepest and the premium highest.

There is a reason we ask for the shift times and the postcode before quoting anything. A 05:00 start on an industrial estate with no bus route is a different booking from a 09:00 start in town and pricing it as though they are the same is how a shift ends up unfilled.

The timesheet comes to you first. You approve it or reject it with a reason and only approved lines reach an invoice — which means the invoice should never be the first time you see a number you disagree with.

Same-day cover is possible where the pool allows it and next day is the realistic standard, particularly for bookings placed before mid-afternoon. We would rather tell you we cannot cover a shift than confirm one and fail to fill it on the morning.
