Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Invergordon

Articulated cover for Invergordon and Scotland: Class 1 drivers booked around your trailers, your routes and your start times.

Highlands & Islands

Keeping Invergordon trunk routes running

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

Night trunking between Inverness and the A9 corridor distribution depots and the national hubs is typical Class 1 work across the Highlands & Islands. We match drivers who want night work, not just any shift.

Container work carries its own rhythm: port slots, booking references and waiting time. Drivers we book for it know the routine.

Hauliers serving whisky and food and drink distribution, renewable energy logistics, island and remote-delivery operators and regional hauliers need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

Typical runs a temporary Class 1 driver covers.

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.

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

Setting up artic cover

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:

  • The trailer type: curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed or tanker
  • The start time and the first run
  • How many nights or weeks of cover
  • Who the driver reports to and where to collect the keys
Compliance

Before the keys change hands

The drivers' hours rules that apply depend on the work — GB domestic, assimilated or AETR. We brief the driver on the rules your runs fall under.

A Class 1 driver who knows coupling checks, load security and the daily walkaround check protects your unit and your operator's licence record.
