Temporary 7.5 Tonne Drivers in Leeds

7.5 tonne driver recruitment for Leeds — single days, busy weeks and ongoing rounds.

West Yorkshire

7.5 tonne drivers for Leeds operators

The C1 licence is the minimum; multi-drop experience is the brief.

Across West Yorkshire, 7.5 tonne work swings with the seasons. Temporary cover lets the fleet grow for peak without growing the payroll.

Tail-lift, box body or curtainside: tell us the vehicle and we match a driver who has worked with it.

Furniture, trade and parcel rounds from the M62 / M1 corridor, Wakefield Europort and the Aire Valley each need a slightly different driver, so we ask which one you run.

How it works

Booking a C1 driver

We check the licence

C1 entitlement, Driver CPC and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.

The vehicle, the first drops, the crew and who to report to.

Cover can be extended

If the gap runs on, tell us and we plan the next days.

7.5 tonne planning

What to include in a 7.5 tonne request

Furniture retailers, wholesalers and removal firms often need C1 drivers for a season rather than a year. Temporary cover matches that pattern.

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:

  • Whether there is a tail-lift
  • The start time and the usual finish
  • Any installation or assembly at the customer's door
  • Who the driver reports to on the first morning
Compliance

Licence, CPC and hours

We confirm C1 entitlement, the Driver CPC card, right to work and a digital tachograph card where the vehicle and the work require one.

A 7.5 tonne driver who plans the round, protects the goods and is polite at the door keeps your customers booking again.
