Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Hoyland

Articulated cover for Hoyland and Yorkshire & the Humber: Class 1 drivers booked around your trailers, your routes and your start times.

Yorkshire

Keeping Hoyland trunk routes running

Experienced C+E drivers, briefed on the job before they arrive.

Across Yorkshire the road network is built for artics: the M62, M1 and A1(M), Leeds Bradford and Doncaster Sheffield airports and the Humber ports at Hull and Immingham. Temporary Class 1 cover keeps those units earning when a regular driver is off.

Double-deck trailers, walking-floor units, tautliners or reefers — say what the driver will pull and we match someone who has pulled it.

From the M1 and A1(M) junction estates across South and West Yorkshire, C+E work ranges from overnight trunks to day haulage and yard moves.

How it works

Three steps to cover

We check the paperwork

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

We stay on the booking

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

Urgent cover handled fast

Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.

Class 1 planning

What to include in a Class 1 request

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

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:

  • Where the tractor unit is based
  • The trailer type: curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed or tanker
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
  • Who the driver reports to and where to collect the keys
Compliance

Before the keys change hands

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.

For Hoyland runs, recent trunking or haulage experience counts for more than years held on the licence.

Class 1 FAQs

Your Class 1 questions

Do you supply drivers for tramping work?

Yes, where the driver wants nights out. Tell us how many nights and what the parking and facilities are like.

How much notice do you need?

Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.

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.

What trailer types can your drivers pull?

Tell us the trailer (curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed, double-deck or tanker) and we match a driver who has worked with it.
