Temporary Class 1 drivers in Hucknall

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

From the M1 and A14 corridors and the East Midlands Airport freight hub, operators trunk to hubs and customers along the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal. We book Class 1 drivers who have run similar legs.

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

Class 1 demand across the East Midlands follows national distribution centres, airfreight and express operators, e-commerce fulfilment and contract logistics, which is why peak-season artic cover is worth booking early.

How it works

What happens after you ask

We check the paperwork

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

The driver is briefed

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

Urgent cover handled fast

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

Class 1 planning

Planning Class 1 cover

An artic without a driver is expensive to leave standing. Temporary Class 1 cover in Hucknall keeps the unit and the trailer earning while a regular driver is away.

Container work runs to port and terminal slots. A driver who understands booking references, weighbridges and waiting time copes with the routine far better.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • Day, night or tramping work
  • The start time and the first run
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
Compliance

The compliance we confirm

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

Night trunk to cover?

Book temporary C+E cover

How many nights, which trailer and where the unit is based — that is enough to start.
