Corby is one of Northamptonshire's key distribution towns, its industrial estates packed with warehousing and logistics operators. When a driver is off or volumes surge, WSUK supplies temporary HGV and van drivers — vetted, compliant and ready across NN17 and NN18.
WSUK fills temporary driving jobs for Corby employers — Class 1 (C+E), Class 2 (C) and 7.5t (C1) HGV drivers plus van and multi-drop drivers — for peaks, absence cover and short-notice shifts. From the Earlstrees and Willowbrook industrial estates out to the A43, A14 and A6003, we mobilise vetted, licence- and CPC-checked drivers fast, with PAYE payroll and tacho compliance managed.
Corby's economy pivoted from steel to logistics, and its industrial estates — Earlstrees, Willowbrook, Weldon and Princewood — now host a dense concentration of warehousing, manufacturing and distribution operators. Sitting on the A43 with the A14 and A6003 close by, the town connects to the A1(M) and M1 and lies at the northern edge of the Golden Triangle, within reach of the major RDCs around Kettering, Wellingborough and DIRFT. New large-format logistics units such as those at the Rockingham site reflect ongoing demand for distribution space, while established operators run steady trunking and multi-drop programmes. Food production, packaging, e-commerce fulfilment and general haulage all feature strongly, and with nearby Kettering and Market Harborough adding further warehousing, Corby's transport operators sustain a high, year-round appetite for drivers across every licence class.
Corby's distributors and manufacturers deal with constant volume swings — retail seasons, contract wins, promotional runs and holiday cover routinely outpace a permanent driver roster. WSUK fills temporary driving jobs with Class 1 (C+E) drivers for trunking on the A43 and A14, Class 2 (C) drivers for rigid distribution and deliveries, 7.5-tonne (C1) drivers, and van and multi-drop drivers for last-mile rounds across NN17 and NN18. Every driver clears DVLA licence checks, CPC verification and right-to-work before starting, and we run PAYE payroll with tacho and working-time compliance managed. Whether you need one driver for a day or a whole team for a seasonal peak, we scale supply up and down to fit.
