Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Lanark

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

Scotland

Lanark Class 1 cover, on your terms

The right licence is the minimum; the right experience is the brief.

Across Scotland the road network is built for artics: the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen. Temporary Class 1 cover keeps those units earning when a regular driver is off.

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

Hauliers serving grocery and retail DCs, food and drink supply chains, energy and port logistics and national 3PLs need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

HGV Class 1 / C+E

Class 1 shifts we fill

Class 1 cover across the main types of artic work.

How it works

Getting a driver booked

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 check the paperwork

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

Urgent cover handled fast

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

Class 1 planning

Before you book a C+E driver

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

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:

  • The trailer type: curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed or tanker
  • Day, night or tramping work
  • How many nights or weeks of cover
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
Compliance

Verified every time

For dangerous goods we also confirm the ADR classes held and their renewal date. The standard checks — C+E, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work — apply to every booking.

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

Class 1 FAQs

Before you book

Can you cover night trunking?

Yes. Tell us the start time and the legs. We match drivers who want night work and have run trunks before.

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.

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.
