HGV Driver & Warehouse Staff Agency in Sandwich
Vetted temporary drivers and warehouse staff supplied to operators in Sandwich and the South East, with digital timesheets and one consolidated weekly invoice.
Why Sandwich operators come back
Perishable freight shapes a good deal of the work near Sandwich. 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 Sandwich 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 Thames-side and Dartford Crossing estates at Swanscombe, Northfleet and Erith. The operators booking temporary cover here are mostly retail and grocery distribution centres serving the South East and the London fringe.
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.
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.
Sandwich bookings are filled from a national pool, sourced against the specific role and the specific site. Licence entitlement, right to work and references are verified before anyone is confirmed to you. The worker travels in ready to start the shift you booked.
Our vetting standard
None of this is a formality. A worker who fails any of these does not get offered the shift and occasionally that means we hand a booking back rather than fill it badly.
Equal treatment on pay and basic conditions applies after 12 weeks in the same role under the Agency Workers Regulations 2010. We hold the count per worker per role and raise it with you before the threshold rather than on the invoice that follows it.
The check happens before confirmation and the record is auditable. If your own compliance team wants to see it, they can, which is the point of keeping it digitally rather than in a drawer.
Rates explained
One weekly invoice covering every approved shift, with the assignment reference on each line. The provenance matters more than the format: you should be able to trace any figure back to a specific person on a specific day.
Next day is what we work to as standard. Same day happens when a suitable worker is free and the site is reachable and we will say which of those two you are getting rather than leaving you to find out at the gate.
