Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Elland

Keep tractor units moving across Yorkshire with temporary C+E drivers matched to the trailer and the route.

Yorkshire

Tractor-unit cover for Elland

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

Night trunking between the M62/M1 corridor, iPort Doncaster, Wakefield Europort and the Aire Valley and the national hubs is typical Class 1 work across Yorkshire. We match drivers who want night work, not just any shift.

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

Much of the Class 1 work across Yorkshire depends on the M62, M1 and A1(M), Leeds Bradford and Doncaster Sheffield airports and the Humber ports at Hull and Immingham, where a late start can cost a delivery slot at the other end of the country.

What Class 1 drivers do here

Artic work where temporary C+E cover fits.

How it works

Our booking process

We match the driver

We look for C+E drivers who have run similar work and want that shift pattern.

We check the paperwork

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

Planned cover in advance

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

Class 1 planning

What we ask about the run

A temporary C+E driver who has pulled your trailer type before needs less induction and settles into the route faster.

Chilled and frozen work adds temperature checks and fridge-unit monitoring to the job. Say so in the brief and we look for drivers who have run reefers.

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
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
Compliance

The checks behind every booking

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.

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