Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Coventry

C+E drivers for Coventry operators — nights, days and nights out, checked before they take the keys.

Warwickshire & the West Midlands

Temporary Class 1 drivers in Coventry

The right licence is the minimum; the right experience is the brief.

From Prologis Park Ryton, the Gateway and Whitley sites and the M6/M69 distribution corridor, operators trunk to hubs and customers along the M6, M69, M1 and A45, Birmingham Airport and Coventry's rail connections. We book Class 1 drivers who have run similar legs.

If the work involves nights out, say so up front. Tramping suits some drivers and not others. Matching the right one first time saves everyone a wasted shift.

Class 1 demand across Warwickshire & the West Midlands follows automotive and manufacturing supply chains, national 3PLs and retail distribution centres, which is why peak-season artic cover is worth booking early.

How it works

We stay on the booking

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

Planned cover in advance

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

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 Coventry keeps the unit and the trailer earning while a regular driver is away.

Weekend and bank holiday trunks are hard to staff from a permanent rota, which makes them a natural fit for temporary Class 1 cover.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • Where the tractor unit is based
  • How many nights or weeks of cover
  • Any ADR classes the load requires
  • Who the driver reports to and where to collect the keys
Compliance

The compliance we confirm

No Class 1 driver is confirmed until the licence shows C+E, the Driver CPC card is in date and the tacho card and right-to-work checks are complete.

For Coventry runs, recent trunking or haulage experience counts for more than years held on the licence.
