Need a 7.5 tonne driver in Lockerbie? Tell us the vehicle, the drops and the start time.
7.5 tonne cover starts with the drops, then the driver.
In and around Lockerbie the 7.5 tonner does the jobs an artic cannot: town-centre drops, narrow access and customer doorsteps across southern Scotland.
Two-person crews need a driver who leads the job at the door. Say if the booking involves a second person and we brief the driver on it.
7.5 tonne rounds from the Cairnryan ferry terminals and the A75 Irish Sea freight route reach homes, shops and trade counters where a bigger lorry would struggle.
Where temporary C1 drivers help most.
We look for C1 drivers who have run similar rounds and want that pattern.
The vehicle, the first drops, the crew and who to report to.
If the gap runs on, tell us and we plan the next days.
Booking seasonal cover ahead gives more choice of driver and keeps the planners' week calm.

For a 7.5 tonne request, include:

Give us the vehicle, the round and the start time and we will do the rest.
