Night trunks, container runs and distribution work around Newton Aycliffe, covered by experienced Class 1 drivers.
Artic work is only as good as the driver who turns up on time for it.
A lot of articulated freight leaves Teesport and the Teesside Freeport estates on trunk routes via the A19, A66 and A1(M), Teesport and Teesside International Airport. That is the work our temporary C+E drivers cover.
For Newton Aycliffe operators we cover single nights, full weeks and ongoing trunk assignments. Planned cover can be booked ahead; urgent cover is handled as it lands.
Hauliers serving chemicals and process industries, port and container logistics, steel and heavy manufacturing and rail-linked 3PLs need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

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