HGV Subcontract Work for UK Owner-Operators
FreightOps provides steady HGV subcontract work for UK owner-operators — daily shifts and long-term contracts, fully planned and managed by us. You run your vehicle, we run the operation.
Work Available
Trailer & Load Types
Tell us what your vehicle is set up for — we match you to the right work. Open to all trailer types welcome.
Shift Patterns & Driver Types
Trampers and shift drivers both welcome. We structure work around your operation — not the other way around.
Why Join FreightOps
Everything a UK HGV subcontractor needs — weekly pay, fuel cards, flexible shifts, and zero admin overhead.
Routes, schedules, jobs — all planned and managed by us. As an owner-operator, your only job is to keep your vehicle on the road. We handle everything else.
Box, curtain sider, supermarket, fridge, and container work — plus long-term contracts. Tell us what your vehicle is set up for and we match you to the right loads.
AM starts, PM starts, weekend work, or tramper runs — we structure shifts around your operation. Shift drivers and trampers both welcome.
Get your vehicle earning in as little as 48 hours. We make the process straightforward so you're not sitting idle.
Payments every Friday without fail. Predictable cash flow matters when you're running your own operation — we get that.
Demonstrate consistent reliability and earn a FreightOps fuel card — a tangible reward that cuts your running costs directly.
A real person you can call. Whether it's a scheduling query or a paperwork question, we're here to keep your operation running smoothly.
We help with documentation, compliance, and — for operators who need it — access to support services covering insurance, finance, truck hire, trailer hire, fuel cards, parking, and maintenance.
How It Works
Tell us about your vehicle and operation. Takes less than 5 minutes — no lengthy paperwork upfront.
We'll check your licence, insurance, and vehicle compliance. Our team guides you through every step so nothing gets missed.
Once approved, your work is ready and waiting. No phone calls chasing loads, no paperwork to figure out — your vehicle gets to work.
What People Say
"I've worked with three different haulage firms over the years. FreightOps is the only one that actually pays on time, every time. The work is consistent and I don't have to chase anyone for anything."

Sarah Okafor

"What I appreciate most is how quickly the team responds. Any issue on the road — big or small — and there's always someone on the other end ready to sort it. Makes a real difference when you're out there on your own."
