Temporary 7.5 Tonne Drivers in Middlesbrough

Trade, retail and home deliveries around Middlesbrough, covered by experienced 7.5 tonne drivers.

Tees Valley

Keeping Middlesbrough multi-drop moving

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

Busy streets in Middlesbrough reward a driver who plans the round before leaving the yard. That is the kind of driver we look for.

If the work includes a parcel trunk or a courier leg, say so — it changes the pattern of the day.

Furniture, trade and parcel rounds from Teesport and the Teesside Freeport estates each need a slightly different driver, so we ask which one you run.

Rounds we staff

7.5 tonne cover across the main types of work.

How it works

Three steps to cover

You send the drops

Vehicle, number of drops, crew and start time. A short form or call is enough.

The driver is briefed

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

Before you book a C1 driver

A driver who has done two-person or furniture work before handles the customer and the load with less supervision.

Town-centre deliveries in Middlesbrough mean loading restrictions, narrow streets and busy pavements. A driver who plans for them keeps the round on time.

For a 7.5 tonne request, include:

  • Whether there is a tail-lift
  • Whether a second person rides along
  • The goods: furniture, white goods, trade or parcels
  • The start time and the usual finish
Compliance

Before the keys change hands

The drivers' hours rules depend on the work — GB domestic, assimilated or AETR. We brief the driver on the rules your rounds fall under.

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

7.5 tonne FAQs

Your 7.5 tonne questions

What licence does a 7.5 tonne driver need?

Category C1, which covers vehicles between 3,500 and 7,500kg with a trailer up to 750kg, plus a current Driver CPC for professional lorry driving. We check both before the first shift.

Can you cover two-person deliveries?

Yes. Tell us about the crew and the work at the door so we brief the driver properly. Two-person rounds need a driver who leads the job, checks the access and gets the paperwork signed.

Can you supply several 7.5 tonne drivers?

Yes. Tell us how many drivers you need and when each one starts. Staggered starts are fine if the rounds build up over a few weeks.

Can you cover town-centre deliveries?

Yes. Tell us about loading restrictions and access so we match a driver who is comfortable with tight streets, pedestrian zones and short loading windows.

Can you supply drivers for event work?

Yes. Tell us the venue, the load-in times and the hours so we match a driver who is flexible about the day. Event work often means early starts and waiting on site.
