Temporary HGV Class 1 drivers for trunking, tramping, container and general haulage work out of Cheltenham.
Nights, days or tramping — we match the driver to the pattern.
From the Avonmouth and Severnside parks, the M4/M5 junction and the distribution sites along the M5, operators trunk to hubs and customers along the M5, M4 and A38, Bristol Airport and the Port of Bristol at Avonmouth and Royal Portbury. We book Class 1 drivers who have run similar legs.
Hauliers and 3PLs across the South West book Class 1 cover for holiday gaps, sickness and new contracts. Tell us the pattern and the length of the booking.
Hauliers serving port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.
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.
We tell you who is starting, when and where, so the transport office can plan around it.
Holidays and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead so the rota is settled early.
A temporary C+E driver who has pulled your trailer type before needs less induction and settles into the route faster.
Retail distribution for supermarkets and big-box stores carries its own rules on delivery slots, paperwork and yard safety. We brief drivers on the site's rules before they arrive.
For a Class 1 request, include:
The drivers' hours rules that apply depend on the work — GB domestic, assimilated or AETR. We brief the driver on the rules your runs fall under.
Nights and tramping suit some drivers and not others. We confirm the driver wants the pattern before they are put forward.
Send the trailer type, the route and the start time. Our driving recruitment team will begin sourcing suitable Class 1 drivers.
Yes, where the driver wants nights out. Tell us how many nights and what the parking and facilities are like.
Yes. Tell us the port or rail terminal, the booking pattern and the trailer type so we match a driver who knows the routine.
Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
Yes. Weekend trunks and bank holiday shifts can be booked like any other. Tell us the dates as early as you can.
Tell us the trailer (curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed, double-deck or tanker) and we match a driver who has worked with it.
