How this figure was built. Based on 92 live advertised salaries for this role and region, 57 of which were the source's own estimate rather than an advertised figure. A further 8 listings were excluded as implausible annual figures — mislabelled hourly or daily rates, which we drop rather than convert.

Methodology: medians reconcile live advertised UK salaries for this role and region; 25th–75th percentiles are shown only where at least 5 live salaried listings back them — they are measured or omitted, never interpolated. Rows marked indicative are anchored to our curated 2026 baseline ranges until enough live data accrues. Listings advertising an implausible annual figure (a mislabelled hourly or daily rate) are excluded rather than converted, because converting one means guessing the hours behind it.

Market view. Multi-drop stamina and a clean Category B licence are the core requirements; 3.5t experience, London routes and temperature-controlled work carry premiums. Employed roles trade rate for predictability against the per-drop gig models.
