Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Nottingham

Temporary HGV Class 1 drivers for trunking, tramping, container and general haulage work out of Nottingham.

Nottinghamshire

Nottingham Class 1 cover, on your terms

Artic work is only as good as the driver who turns up on time for it.

Night trunking between the M1 corridor parks, East Midlands Gateway and the distribution sites around Junction 26 and the national hubs is typical Class 1 work across Nottinghamshire. We match drivers who want night work, not just any shift.

For Nottingham 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 national distribution centres, airfreight and express operators, e-commerce fulfilment and contract logistics need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

Class 1 planning

What to include in a Class 1 request

Across Nottinghamshire, Class 1 demand moves with the retail calendar and port schedules. Temporary drivers let you staff the extra runs only for as long as they last.

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 start time and the first run
  • Whether the work is trunking, container or general haulage
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
Compliance

Verified every time

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