Highlands & Islands

C+E drivers for Alness routes

Temporary Class 1 drivers who have done this kind of run before.

Class 1 work across the Highlands & Islands leans on the A9 and A82, Inverness Airport and the ferry links to Orkney, Shetland and the Western Isles. Drivers we book know how those roads run at night as well as in the day.

Container work carries its own rhythm: port slots, booking references and waiting time. Drivers we book for it know the routine.

Operators with units based across the Inverness Airport Business Park and the Cromarty Firth ports at Invergordon and Nisbet often need cover at short notice when a trunk driver is off.

Trunking, tramping and container work

From trunk routes to yard work.

How it works

From request to first shift

We check the paperwork

Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.

You confirm the booking

We tell you who is starting, when and where, so the transport office can plan around it.

Planned cover in advance

Holidays and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead so the rota is settled early.

Class 1 planning

Planning Class 1 cover

Hauliers often need C+E cover for a defined period, such as a contract launch, a peak season or a driver's leave. Temporary drivers fit that window without a permanent hire.

Container work runs to port and terminal slots. A driver who understands booking references, weighbridges and waiting time copes with the routine far better.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • Where the tractor unit is based
  • The start time and the first run
  • Any ADR classes the load requires
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
Compliance

Checked before the first run

Every Class 1 driver we confirm holds category C+E entitlement, a current Driver CPC and a valid digital tachograph card, with right to work established first.

Nights and tramping suit some drivers and not others. We confirm the driver wants the pattern before they are put forward.
