Keep tractor units moving across the North East with temporary C+E drivers matched to the trailer and the route.
Experienced C+E drivers, briefed on the job before they arrive.
Class 1 work across the North East leans on the A1(M), A19 and A66, Newcastle Airport and the ports at Tyne and Teesport. Drivers we book know how those roads run at night as well as in the day.
For Gateshead 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 automotive and chemicals supply chains, port and bulk logistics, retail distribution and regional 3PLs need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.
Tyneside (Newcastle and Gateshead) runs a class C Clean Air Zone that charges HGVs that miss the emission standard, so we check how your units fit before we book a driver for city work.
Where temporary C+E drivers make the biggest difference.
Trailer type, route profile, start time and how many nights. Two minutes on a form or a call is enough.
Site rules, the unit, the first job and who to report to — before the driver arrives.
If the cover needs extending, you tell us and we plan the next shifts.
An artic without a driver is expensive to leave standing. Temporary Class 1 cover in Gateshead keeps the unit and the trailer earning while a regular driver is away.
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:
Every Class 1 driver we confirm holds category C+E entitlement, a current Driver CPC and a valid digital tachograph card, with right to work established first.
C+E drivers tell us which routes and trailers they know best. We match on that experience, not on the entitlement alone.
Give us the unit, the run and the start time and we will do the rest.
