Frequently Asked Questions

How does 56 Logistics work? expand_more
56 Logistics is like a taxi company, but instead of people, we move goods. We don’t have depots; when a job matches your location and vehicle, we’ll call with the details and, if you accept it, we’ll send it straight to your phone. You simply collect, deliver, and earn.
What’s the work like? expand_more
  • Local collections: Most jobs start with pick-ups from businesses near you.
  • Nationwide deliveries: Destinations across the UK: London, Manchester, Glasgow, Cardiff, and beyond.
  • Paid for loaded miles: You earn from the moment goods are collected until they’re delivered. All miles matter, but loaded miles are where the money is made—giving you clear, fair, and predictable pay.
  • Extra jobs on return trips: Often we’ll arrange collections on your way home. These are paid at a set rate per stop, based on distance and load size.
How much will I earn? expand_more
The work we provide is designed to maximise earnings whilst keeping dead mileage at a minimum. Typically drivers can earn anywhere between £400 and £1500 per week before running costs. Many drivers average £1000-£1200 a week which equates to a take home pay between £550 and £800 a week. All payments are made on a weekly basis.
Is it for me? expand_more
We operate in much the same way as a taxi company, with drivers being available at various times during the day or week, so you can choose when you work. Obviously the more that you are available the more money you will earn. This flexibility means the work is suitable for anybody. For example, the semi-retired who may want to work 2 or 3 days a week to boost their pension and keep the boredom at bay!
What about the van? expand_more
  • Use your own van: Larger vans mean access to bigger jobs and higher pay.
  • No van? No problem: Start with one from our trusted hire partners. Many drivers begin this way and later buy their own once they’re established.
