In a world that’s full of consumers who increasingly expect everything at their fingertips, there are many opportunities for hauliers who are prepared to drive at night as part of a 24-hour supply chain. While it's not for everyone, this constant demand means that the rewards can be very attractive.
The Need for a 24-Hour Supply Chain
With the need to keep the supply chain moving following a 9-5 schedule is not an option. The import and export of goods is a major part of the chain Solo gli utenti registrati possono vedere i link!

, and every minute of every day goods are flown, shipped, or trucked all over the world in massive volumes, in order to keep the wheels in motion – quite literally.
Retailers and consumers are demanding fast and easy access products so the pressure is on for the supply chain to provide higher levels of efficiency.

, and for workforce enabling this, is also growing.
Benefits for Drivers
The costs of hours spent on the road transporting goods is part of the inherent basic framework of the supply chain. In terms of road haulage, keeping the supply chain moving means relying on a virtually non-stop workforce of HGV drivers.

, those prepared to take on what are sometimes perceived as 'unsociable hours' can command significantly higher rates of pay. There are also special subsistence allowances paid to drivers who have to spend the night away from home – whether in the cab of their lorries or in accommodation. (These may also include such items as meal allowances and washing allowances.)
There is strict legislation in place to ensure that HGV drivers (and employers) comply with health and safety requirements regarding proper rest and meal breaks. Some larger businesses even provide free health assessments for night workers to ensure that their physical and mental condition is not affected by having to drive at night.
Considerations
For hauliers taking on available loads that require night driving, it's important to consider more factors than the fiscal rewards and favourable working conditions. With more than three million night workers (across a variety of industries) in Britain, a report published by the Trades Union Centre (TUC) found that regular night work could, in some cases Solo gli utenti registrati possono vedere i link!
