Keep tractor units moving across Devon & Cornwall with temporary C+E drivers matched to the trailer and the route.
Temporary Class 1 drivers who have done this kind of run before.
Operators across Devon & Cornwall run curtainsiders, boxes and fridges along the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. The trailer type is the first thing we ask about.
For Okehampton operators we cover single nights, full weeks and ongoing trunk assignments. Planned cover can be booked ahead; urgent cover is handled as it lands.
Operators with units based across Falmouth docks and the far-west distribution depots often need cover at short notice when a trunk driver is off.
Artic work where temporary C+E cover fits.
We look for C+E drivers who have run similar work and want that shift pattern.
Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.
Site rules, the unit, the first job and who to report to — before the driver arrives.
A temporary C+E driver who has pulled your trailer type before needs less induction and settles into the route faster.
Retail distribution for supermarkets and big-box stores carries its own rules on delivery slots, paperwork and yard safety. We brief drivers on the site's rules before they arrive.
For a Class 1 request, include:
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.
Nights and tramping suit some drivers and not others. We confirm the driver wants the pattern before they are put forward.
Give us the unit, the run and the start time and we will do the rest.
