HGV Driver & Warehouse Staff Agency in Bolton
Vetted temporary drivers and warehouse staff supplied to operators in Bolton and the North West, with digital timesheets and one consolidated weekly invoice.
What Bolton sites get from us
Around Bolton the road network is dense enough that operators can run several deliveries in a shift, which raises the drop count and raises the cost of being one driver short.
Transport around Bolton works off the M6, M62, M60, M56, M61 and M58, Manchester and Liverpool airports, the Liverpool2 and Royal Seaforth container terminals, the Manchester Ship Canal and the Irish Sea freight port at Heysham, with volume concentrated in Omega at Warrington, straddling M62 junction 8. The operators booking temporary cover here are mostly chilled and ambient grocery distribution centres.
Grocery distribution across the region flexes around promotions, bank holidays and any weekend of decent weather, none of which is carried in permanent headcount.
Continental four-on four-off across the larger contract logistics sites, days then nights.
Every unfilled seat has a knock-on. A missing warehouse operative slows a pick face; a missing driver strands a vehicle, a load and a delivery slot. That is why the honest answer on capacity matters more than the optimistic one.
Transport Temps covers Bolton as a national agency. Drivers and warehouse staff are sourced against your specific booking, checked before they are confirmed and travel to your site for the shift. You get the person who fits the seat rather than whoever happened to be nearest.
The checks we run
Checked before the shift, not after the incident. Each item below is verified at registration and the licence checks repeat on a 90-day cycle.
Twelve weeks in the same role with the same hirer triggers equal treatment on pay and basic conditions under the Agency Workers Regulations 2010. Most agencies notice this after the fact. We count it from shift one and flag it in advance.
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.
Rates and payment
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.
The honest answer is that speed depends on how specific the seat is. General warehouse cover moves fastest. A specific licence category, a site passport or an unusual start time all narrow the pool and lengthen the lead time.

Questions, answered
What temporary staff can you supply in Bolton?
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 Bolton?
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 Bolton 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.
