Keep tractor units moving across Cumbria with temporary C+E drivers matched to the trailer and the route.
Artic work is only as good as the driver who turns up on time for it.
Across Cumbria the road network is built for artics: the M6 and A66, the West Coast Main Line and the port of Workington. 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 the Barrow-in-Furness shipyard and marine supply estates, C+E work ranges from overnight trunks to day haulage and yard moves.
Artic work where temporary C+E cover fits.
We look for C+E drivers who have run similar work and want that shift pattern.
We tell you who is starting, when and where, so the transport office can plan around it.
Site rules, the unit, the first job and who to report to — before the driver arrives.
Planned Class 1 cover for holidays, training and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead, so your planners are not searching on the day.
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:
Driver CPC means 35 hours of periodic training every five years. We confirm it is current, along with C+E entitlement, the tacho card and right to work.
For Cockermouth runs, recent trunking or haulage experience counts for more than years held on the licence.
How many nights, which trailer and where the unit is based — that is enough to start.

Yes. Our permanent driver desk places Class 1 drivers onto your payroll when you want a seat filled for good.
