The rest of this page is what the job is like when we are hiring. Driven collections and deliveries for dealerships, fleet operators and trade buyers: stock between sites, vehicles out of auction compounds and handovers to retail customers at their door. Pay is weekly and on time. Rates are competitive and agreed up front. You know what a job pays before you accept it rather than after you have done it. You pick the routes and days that suit you. Some drivers work with us full time, others take work around something else. Both are fine. What is not fine is accepting a job and not turning up for it. - ### Paid weekly Competitive rates, agreed before you accept the job, paid every week without chasing. - ### Routes that suit you Choose the days and the routes you want to work. Full time or fitted around other commitments. ## What we look for A full clean driving licence is essential. Trade plate experience is preferred but not required. We will train someone who is otherwise right for it. Beyond that it is reliability and presentation. On a lot of these jobs you are the only person from the supplying dealer that the customer ever meets, so you are representing someone else's business on their doorstep. That means turning up when you said, looking presentable and being able to talk a customer through a V5C without making it awkward. The paperwork matters as much as the driving. Photographing every panel properly and capturing the signature is what protects the customer, the dealer and you. Drivers who cut corners on the appraisal do not last with us. - ### Full clean licence Required for every driver. Trade plate experience is welcome but we will train the right person. - ### Presentable and reliable You are the face of someone else's dealership at a customer's door. Turning up on time and looking the part is the job. ## What we provide Motor trade road risk for every movement, so you are not arranging or paying for your own cover on our work. The driver app handles the job: accepting work, the panel-by-panel appraisal, mileage capture, condition notes and the customer signature. It builds the report and sends it, so you are not filling in forms at the roadside or emailing photographs afterwards. And an office that answers the phone. If a gate will not open, a code is wrong or a vehicle is not as described, you ring us and we sort it. That is our job, not yours. - ### Insurance provided Motor trade road risk on every job you do for us. - ### The app does the paperwork Appraisal, photographs, mileage, notes and signature captured on the device and sent automatically. In practice ## The appraisal is part of the job Photographing every panel properly is not admin bolted onto the driving. It is what protects the dealer, the customer and you when someone queries a mark two weeks later. Drivers who take it seriously get the repeat work. How it runs ## What actually happens There are no vacancies just now. Leave your details and we will be in contact if a job comes up. - 01 ### Send us your details Your name, phone, email and where you are based. The form on this page is enough. - 02 ### We keep them on file There is no vacancy just now, so we do not call you about work that is not there. - 03 ### We get in contact If a job comes up, we will be in touch about your experience and your area. - 04 ### A trial, then the network When there is a job, one movement done properly, then the app and the insurance if it suits both sides.

When it does not Trade plate delivery beats a transporter when the car or van is roadworthy with a valid MOT and needs to leave now rather than wait for a deck. A transporter is a loaded truck.
