HGV Driver & Warehouse Staff Agency in Looe
Vetted temporary drivers and warehouse staff supplied to operators in Looe and the South West, with digital timesheets and one consolidated weekly invoice.
Why Looe employers use an agency
The seasonal swing around Looe is among the largest in England — summer volumes several times the winter baseline — and no operator carries that difference in permanent headcount.
Transport around Looe works off the M5 south of Exeter, the A30, the A38 Devon Expressway, the A390 and A361, Cornwall Airport Newquay and the ports at Plymouth, Falmouth and Fowey, with volume concentrated in Langage at Plympton and the A38 approaches east of Plymouth. The operators booking temporary cover here are mostly regional foodservice and drinks distributors supplying hospitality across the peninsula.
Hospitality across the peninsula orders more often and in smaller quantities in season, which raises the drop count and the driver requirement more than the tonnage suggests.
Early AM foodservice and drinks deliveries into hotels, pubs and holiday parks, finished before the roads fill up.
The most expensive worker is the one who arrives without the right ticket. A forklift certificate from an unaccredited provider, a lapsed DQC, a counterbalance card presented for reach truck work — each one either stops the shift or creates an exposure nobody priced in.
How cover for Looe works: you send the seat, the dates and the shift times. We source against that requirement from a national pool, complete the licence and right-to-work checks, then confirm a named worker who travels to your site.
Compliance and vetting
This is the gate a worker passes before they are offered your booking. Failing any line of it stops the confirmation.
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.
Each is verified against an original or a live source rather than a photocopy and the licence check repeats every 90 days for as long as the worker is available to us.
How pay works
Hours are logged against the booking, submitted as a digital timesheet and sent to you to approve or reject with a reason. Approved timesheets roll into one consolidated weekly invoice with every shift itemised, rather than a pile of paper dockets at month end.
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.

Common questions
What temporary staff can you supply in Looe?
Drivers first — C+E, Cat C, 7.5 tonne and van — then the warehouse side: counterbalance and reach forklift, pickers, packers and goods-in. Anything needing an ADR or lorry-loader ticket goes through the specialist desks.
What checks do you run before a worker starts in Looe?
Licence categories are checked against DVLA records with a share code, CPC and tacho expiries are confirmed, right to work is evidenced and references are taken. The record is auditable, so your own compliance team can see it.
How does booking temporary staff in Looe work?
Role, headcount, dates, shift, postcode. We confirm what is coverable, complete the checks, then the hours run through a digital timesheet you approve or reject with a reason.
