Temporary HGV Class 1 drivers for trunking, tramping, container and general haulage work out of Boston.
Artic work is only as good as the driver who turns up on time for it.
Across the East Midlands the road network is built for artics: the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal. Temporary Class 1 cover keeps those units earning when a regular driver is off.
Container work carries its own rhythm: port slots, booking references and waiting time. Drivers we book for it know the routine.
From DIRFT (Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal), Magna Park and the big-shed parks on the M1 and A14, C+E work ranges from overnight trunks to day haulage and yard moves.
Typical runs a temporary Class 1 driver covers.
Trailer type, route profile, start time and how many nights. Two minutes on a form or a call is enough.
Site rules, the unit, the first job and who to report to — before the driver arrives.
Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
Across the East Midlands, Class 1 demand moves with the retail calendar and port schedules. Temporary drivers let you staff the extra runs only for as long as they last.
Trunk legs from Boston can be long, so drivers' hours planning matters. Tell us the timings and we brief the driver on how the day is expected to run.
For a Class 1 request, include:
For dangerous goods we also confirm the ADR classes held and their renewal date. The standard checks — C+E, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work — apply to every booking.
For Boston runs, recent trunking or haulage experience counts for more than years held on the licence.
