HGV Driver & Warehouse Staff Agency in Ashford
Vetted temporary drivers and warehouse staff supplied to operators in Ashford and the South East, with digital timesheets and one consolidated weekly invoice.
Why Ashford operators come back
Around Ashford the labour market is tight for a straightforward reason: the same drivers are wanted by the ports, by the supermarket distribution centres and by the airport. Pay rates move accordingly.
Transport around Ashford 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 M4 corridor parks at Reading, Bracknell, Slough and Theale. The operators booking temporary cover here are mostly Channel-port hauliers, groupage operators and customs handling agents.
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.
The measure that matters on temporary cover is not how fast an agency answers the phone. It is what proportion of booked heads actually arrive. A confirmed booking that fails on the morning costs more than a decline the previous afternoon, because by then there is no time to do anything else.
Cover for Ashford is arranged nationally, which is what lets us match the worker to the seat rather than to the postcode. Every driver and warehouse operative is vetted against your booking before confirmation, then travels in for the shift.
Our vetting standard
This is the gate a worker passes before they are offered your booking. Failing any line of it stops the confirmation.
The Agency Workers Regulations 2010 give an agency worker equal treatment on pay and basic conditions after 12 weeks in the same role with the same hirer. That clock starts on the first shift and we surface the count so it is never a surprise on the invoice.
Every one of those happens before a worker is confirmed onto your booking, not after they arrive at the gate. Licence checks are re-run every 90 days rather than kept on file and assumed.
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.

Frequently asked
What temporary staff can you supply in Ashford?
Two halves. Driving — Class 1, Class 2, 7.5 tonne, van and multi-drop. Warehouse — forklift, operatives, pickers and packers. Specialist and ticketed work sits with the national desks.
What checks do you run before a worker starts in Ashford?
Before anyone is confirmed: a DVLA check on licence entitlement, Driver CPC and tachograph cards verified in date, right to work evidenced and two work-related references obtained. Warehouse bookings carry the same right-to-work and reference standard.
How does booking temporary staff in Ashford work?
Four things get it moving: what seat, how many, which days, what hours. We come back with a yes or a no rather than a maybe and nobody is confirmed until their checks are clear.
