West Midlands

C1 drivers for Tamworth rounds

7.5 tonne cover starts with the drops, then the driver.

Operators across the West Midlands run 7.5 tonners for trade and home deliveries. Temporary C1 drivers keep those rounds on schedule when a regular driver is off.

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

C1 work across the West Midlands is served by the M6, M5, M42 and M40, Birmingham Airport and strong rail-freight connections, but the skill is in the last half-mile: parking, access and the door.

Short-notice requests

Urgent cover gets a straight answer on what we can confirm.

7.5 tonne planning

What we ask about the drops

Booking seasonal cover ahead gives more choice of driver and keeps the planners' week calm.

Event and exhibition work comes with venue slots, security checks and early load-ins. It suits drivers who are flexible about hours.

For a 7.5 tonne request, include:

  • Where the lorry is based
  • How many drops and the delivery area
  • Whether a second person rides along
  • The start time and the usual finish
Compliance

Checked before the first drop

Driver CPC means 35 hours of periodic training every five years for professional lorry driving. We confirm it is current before the first shift.

C1 drivers are asked which deliveries and vehicles they know best. The match is built on that, not just on the licence.

Book temporary C1 cover

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

7.5 tonne FAQs

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.

How much notice do you need?

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

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.

Do you also recruit permanent 7.5 tonne drivers?

Yes. Our permanent driver desk places 7.5 tonne drivers onto your payroll when you want a permanent hire. Temporary cover can keep the round going while that search runs.
