Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Dunoon

Temporary HGV Class 1 drivers for trunking, tramping, container and general haulage work out of Dunoon.

Scotland

Dunoon Class 1 cover, on your terms

Nights, days or tramping — we match the driver to the pattern.

A lot of articulated freight leaves the M74 and M9 corridors and the Clyde and Forth port estates on trunk routes via the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen. That is the work our temporary C+E drivers cover.

For Dunoon operators we cover single nights, full weeks and ongoing trunk assignments. Planned cover can be booked ahead; urgent cover is handled as it lands.

Hauliers serving grocery and retail DCs, food and drink supply chains, energy and port logistics and national 3PLs need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

How it works

Getting a driver booked

We check the paperwork

Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.

The driver is briefed

Site rules, the unit, the first job and who to report to — before the driver arrives.

We stay on the booking

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

Class 1 planning

Before you book a C+E driver

Class 1 work is where gaps hurt most: a missed trunk can delay every drop that depends on it the next morning. Booking cover early protects the whole chain.

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:

  • The start time and the first run
  • Whether the work is trunking, container or general haulage
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
Compliance

Verified every time

We check C+E entitlement on the licence itself, review endorsements, confirm Driver CPC currency and the card expiry and check the tachograph card before the first run.

Nights and tramping suit some drivers and not others. We confirm the driver wants the pattern before they are put forward.

Class 1 FAQs

Before you book

Can you supply temporary Class 1 drivers in Dunoon?

What does a Class 1 driver need to hold?

Category C+E entitlement, a current Driver CPC — 35 hours of periodic training every five years — and a digital tachograph card, plus ADR for dangerous goods work.

Can you cover container haulage?

Yes. Tell us the port or rail terminal, the booking pattern and the trailer type so we match a driver who knows the routine.

Do you also recruit permanent Class 1 drivers?

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

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.
