C+E drivers for Dursley operators — nights, days and nights out, checked before they take the keys.
Artic work is only as good as the driver who turns up on time for it.
Across the South West the road network is built for artics: the M5, M4 and A38, Bristol Airport and the Port of Bristol at Avonmouth and Royal Portbury. Temporary Class 1 cover keeps those units earning when a regular driver is off.
Recruiting a permanent Class 1 driver as well? Our permanent driver desk can run that search while the temporary cover keeps the unit moving.
Class 1 demand across the South West follows port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs, which is why peak-season artic cover is worth booking early.
Where temporary C+E drivers make the biggest difference.
Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.
If the cover needs extending, you tell us and we plan the next shifts.
Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
Across the South West, Class 1 demand moves with the retail calendar and port schedules. Temporary drivers let you staff the extra runs only for as long as they last.
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:
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 Dursley runs, recent trunking or haulage experience counts for more than years held on the licence.
Give us the unit, the run and the start time and we will do the rest.

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