C1 drivers for Barnet operators — town-centre rounds, tail-lift drops and furniture work, checked before they start.
Trade, retail and home delivery rounds, covered by one desk.
Across London & the South East, 7.5 tonne work swings with the seasons. Temporary cover lets the fleet grow for peak without growing the payroll.
For Barnet operators we cover single days, full weeks and ongoing 7.5 tonne rounds. Planned cover can be booked well ahead.
7.5 tonne rounds from the London Gateway and Tilbury corridors and the north London depots reach homes, shops and trade counters where a bigger lorry would struggle.
A 7.5 tonne lorry is over 3.5 tonnes, so in Greater London it falls under the Low Emission Zone rather than the ULEZ. The HGV safety permit scheme starts at 12 tonnes, above a 7.5 tonner.
Where temporary C1 drivers help most.
Vehicle, number of drops, crew and start time. A short form or call is enough.
C1 entitlement, Driver CPC and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.
Urgent cover gets a straight answer on what we can confirm.
Booking seasonal cover ahead gives more choice of driver and keeps the planners' week calm.
Two-person deliveries depend on the driver leading the job: checking the access, protecting the property and getting the paperwork signed.
For a 7.5 tonne request, include:
Every 7.5 tonne driver we confirm holds category C1 entitlement and a current Driver CPC, with right to work established first.
C1 entitlement is only the start. Recent multi-drop work, the goods handled and experience with a second person come next.

Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
