Temporary 7.5 tonne drivers in Totton

Big enough for serious multi-drop, small enough for town streets.

In and around Totton the 7.5 tonner does the jobs an artic cannot: town-centre drops, narrow access and customer doorsteps across the South East.

For Totton operators we cover single days, full weeks and ongoing 7.5 tonne rounds. Planned cover can be booked well ahead.

Across the South East the regional legs are served by the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover; most of a 7.5 tonne day is then spent on town streets and estates.

7.5 tonne planning

The details a 7.5 tonne match needs

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

Across the South East, 7.5 tonne work often runs from smaller depots and retail back-of-house. The first shift goes better when the driver knows where to collect the keys and the paperwork.

For a 7.5 tonne request, include:

  • Whether there is a tail-lift
  • The goods: furniture, white goods, trade or parcels
  • How many days or weeks of cover
  • Who the driver reports to on the first morning
Compliance

The compliance we confirm

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.

7.5 tonne FAQs

Frequently asked

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 cover peak season?

Yes. Seasonal rounds are one of the most common reasons operators book temporary 7.5 tonne drivers. Share the dates early so the extra rounds are planned before the rush starts.

Do you cover depots near Totton?

Yes. We book 7.5 tonne drivers for sites across the South East. Tell us where the vehicle is based and where the first drop is.

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.
