HGV Class 1 recruitment for Chesterfield

Trunk routes, container work and distribution, covered by one desk.

Operators across the East Midlands run curtainsiders, boxes and fridges along the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal. The trailer type is the first thing we ask about.

Recruiting a permanent Class 1 driver as well? Our permanent driver desk can run that search while the temporary cover keeps the unit moving.

Hauliers serving national distribution centres, airfreight and express operators, e-commerce fulfilment and contract logistics need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

HGV Class 1 / C+E

The runs we cover

From trunk routes to yard work.

How it works

How we match the driver

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.

We stay on the booking

If the cover needs extending, you tell us and we plan the next shifts.

Class 1 planning

The details a Class 1 match needs

An artic without a driver is expensive to leave standing. Temporary Class 1 cover in Chesterfield keeps the unit and the trailer earning while a regular driver is away.

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:

  • Day, night or tramping work
  • The start time and the first run
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
Compliance

Paperwork that decides it

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.

C+E drivers tell us which routes and trailers they know best. We match on that experience, not on the entitlement alone.

Tell us about the run

How many nights, which trailer and where the unit is based — that is enough to start.

Class 1 FAQs

Common questions

Can you cover night trunking?

Yes. Tell us the start time and the legs. We match drivers who want night work and have run trunks before.

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 Class 1 drivers at once?

Yes. Tell us how many drivers you need and whether they start together or in stages.

Can you cover weekend and bank holiday work?

Yes. Weekend trunks and bank holiday shifts can be booked like any other. Tell us the dates as early as you can.

Do you supply drivers for chilled and frozen work?

Yes. Tell us it is reefer work so we match a Class 1 driver who has monitored a fridge unit and handled temperature paperwork.
