Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Heywood

Class 1 driver recruitment for Heywood — single nights, weeks of cover and ongoing trunk assignments.

North West

Artic drivers for Heywood operators

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

Operators across the North West run curtainsiders, boxes and fridges along the M6, M62, M56 and M61, Manchester and Liverpool airports and the Port of Liverpool. The trailer type is the first thing we ask about.

Hauliers and 3PLs across the North West book Class 1 cover for holiday gaps, sickness and new contracts. Tell us the pattern and the length of the booking.

From the M6/M62 distribution parks, Trafford Park and the Liverpool2 container terminal, C+E work ranges from overnight trunks to day haulage and yard moves.

HGV Class 1 / C+E

Where Class 1 cover gets used

Class 1 cover across the main types of artic work.

How it works

Booking a C+E driver

You send the brief

Trailer type, route profile, start time and how many nights. Two minutes on a form or a call is enough.

We match the driver

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

The driver is briefed

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

Class 1 planning

Setting up artic cover

Some Class 1 bookings are a single night. Others settle into a regular pattern that runs for months. Both begin with the same request.

Class 1 shifts tend to fall into three shapes: nights trunking between hubs, days on general haulage and tramping with nights out. Each suits a different driver, so we ask which one you run.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • How many nights or weeks of cover
  • Any ADR classes the load requires
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
  • Who the driver reports to and where to collect the keys
Compliance

Licence, CPC and tacho

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.

Past the licence check, we look at recent artic work: trailer types, distances and whether the driver has done nights lately.
