Why Driver Setup

Run by a driver, not a salesperson

Most of this industry's suppliers are staffed by people who have never held a licence or planned a day's work. That is the difference, and it shows up in who stays and what gets delivered.

Ten years on the road

Class 1, tramping, trunking, multi-drop. The work being recruited for is work that has actually been done.

The office side too

Day-to-day transport operations, and covering the depot when the manager was away. Covering a Monday with nobody available, and dealing with the fallout of a bad hire.

Compliance is not an afterthought

Drivers' hours, tachograph rules, CPC and licence checking handled properly, because getting it wrong lands on your O-licence and not ours.

Questions

The ones we get asked

Where do you cover?

Kent and the South East, with most of our work around Sheppey, Sittingbourne, the Medway towns, Maidstone and Aylesford. Transport support is done remotely, and so will CPC training be once approved, so location matters far less for those.

Would you be our transport manager?

No. We do not hold a Transport Manager CPC and we will not go on your operator's licence.

The compliance membership supports whoever does hold that role — the analysis, the reporting, the driver-facing conversations. Transport support works the same way: we do the planning and the paperwork, and responsibility for the licence stays where it legally has to, with you.
