Matched to a High-Volume Logistics Market
The Netherlands moves some of the highest freight volumes in Europe. We shortlist drivers with the licence category and route experience your operation needs.
Licence Recognition Scoped to the Netherlands
Non-EU licence recognition isn't one-size-fits-all — it depends on the country and the licence category. We work out exactly what the Netherlands requires for a given licence, and manage the paperwork.
Work-Permit Support, Scoped to the Netherlands
Work-permit and visa rules for non-EU drivers aren't the same across the EU. For the Netherlands, we scope the application to what's actually required there and manage it alongside the employer's paperwork.
Transparent Pay, Set Out in Writing
What a driver earns depends on the employer, the licence category and the route type, rather than a single market rate. We make sure every offer is set out in writing before a driver accepts it.
