Houlvek
Connect professional HGV capacity with companies that need freight moved, while keeping applications, communication and job progress organised.
For professional carriers
Subcontract haulage can help owner drivers and fleets use available capacity for work moved on behalf of another freight or haulage business. Houlvek is designed to connect suitable HGV opportunities with a workflow that continues from application into messaging, job management and proof of delivery.
Keep the focus on professional Class 1 and Class 2 road freight rather than general courier work.
Professional carrier profiles and document workflows support a more structured way to work with freight companies.
Applications can progress into communication, active jobs and POD without creating a disconnected process.
Before you apply
Subcontract opportunities work best when the carrier is ready to show that the vehicle, availability and operating setup fit the job. Review the opportunity and keep the relevant business and driver information organised before committing to the work.
Make sure the operation has the licences and permissions required for the HGV work it undertakes.
Keep vehicle or trailer capability and realistic availability clear before applying for work.
Keep the carrier and driver documents requested by the platform current so the working profile is ready for review.
Review the freight details, timing, collection and delivery requirements, and the commercial terms shown for the opportunity before committing.
Operator-licensing requirements depend on the vehicle, use and circumstances of the operation. For an overview with official UK sources, read our HGV Operator Licence guide.
