For UK hauliers
An HGV driver agency alternative for direct shift cover
Choose the driver rate and keep platform fees separate. Review applicants and confirm the terms before the work begins.
Initial marketplace coverage: South Essex, Thurrock and the A13 corridor. Availability, eligibility and account terms are confirmed before booking.

Agency cover can hide the information transport teams need most
The goal is not to remove operational judgement. The goal is to give your team a clearer record before confirming who drives the shift and how the work gets approved afterwards.
Pricing separated from driver pay
Traditional agencies often add a percentage margin to driver hours. Drivano is built around transparent platform pricing and clear shift rates.
Compliance records stay visible
Driver documents, licence check-code workflows, contract status, and timesheet approvals sit closer to the shift decision.
Direct shift record
Hauliers and self-employed drivers work through a clearer B2B assignment flow instead of scattered calls, emails, and spreadsheets.
A cleaner route from open shift to approved timesheet
Drivano is direct about coverage and only useful where driver supply, employer demand, and verification capacity can support the work in a real geography.
Post the shift with vehicle class, location, start time, rate, and work details.
Review interested drivers and their compliance status before confirming cover.
Keep contracts, timesheets, approvals, and payment handoff attached to the shift.
Current coverage focuses on South Essex, Thurrock and the A13 corridor. Availability depends on the shift requirements and suitable, eligible drivers.
