Filling a temporary driving job in Tamworth? WSUK supplies vetted HGV and van drivers to the Birch Coppice operators, Relay Park and B77-B79 businesses - fast cover for peaks, absence and short-notice spikes, with full DVLA licence, CPC and right-to-work checks and PAYE payroll handled for you.
Tamworth's logistics core is Birch Coppice, the West Midlands' largest rail-served business park, and WSUK fills the temporary driving jobs around it - Class 1 (C+E) trunking and van multi-drop across B77-B79. With the M42 at Junction 10 and the A5 alongside, employers here call us when rail-intermodal volumes, seasonal peaks or driver absence leave shifts uncovered.
Tamworth is a heavyweight distribution town built on the M42 at Junction 10, where the A5 Watling Street crosses. Its centrepiece is Birch Coppice Business Park at Dordon - the West Midlands' largest rail-served development, home to Ocado, UPS and Euro Car Parts, with an on-site intermodal freight terminal (BIFT) connecting to the national rail network. Relay Park and the Tame Valley and Amington industrial estates add further warehousing, retail-distribution and manufacturing capacity. Positioned between Lichfield, Cannock, Atherstone and Nuneaton, and within easy reach of the M6, M6 Toll and M42, Tamworth sits inside the Golden Triangle's northern edge. That combination of rail intermodal and motorway access keeps HGV trunking, 7.5-tonne and van multi-drop drivers in constant demand across the B77-B79 postcodes.
Rail-served distribution and big retail fulfilment run on strict slot times, so one missing driver at Birch Coppice can cascade into missed loads. WSUK fills temporary driving jobs across the full range - C+E Class 1 artics, Class 2 rigids, 7.5-tonne and van/multi-drop - with drivers available at short notice. Before any shift we complete DVLA licence and Driver CPC checks, right-to-work verification and reference screening. PAYE payroll and tachograph and working-time compliance are handled by us, keeping the admin off your transport desk. As intermodal flows, e-commerce peaks and holiday absence move your demand, we scale driver supply up and back down, so you're covered at the peak without carrying surplus in between.

At Birch Coppice, Relay Park and the Tame Valley estates, Tamworth employers rely on WSUK when a rail-linked trunk run or fulfilment round loses its driver. We know the M42 J10 and A5 routes, the intermodal shift patterns and the retail-distribution volumes that drive B77-B79 demand - so the temporary drivers we send arrive ready to work.
