Keep tractor units moving across Devon & Cornwall with temporary C+E drivers matched to the trailer and the route.
Class 1 cover starts with the trailer and the route, then the driver.
Class 1 work across Devon & Cornwall leans on the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. Drivers we book know how those roads run at night as well as in the day.
Container work carries its own rhythm: port slots, booking references and waiting time. Drivers we book for it know the routine.
Tractor units working from Falmouth docks and the far-west distribution depots run trunk and haulage legs across the country as well as local shunts.
Where temporary C+E drivers make the biggest difference.
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.
If the cover needs extending, you tell us and we plan the next shifts.
An artic without a driver is expensive to leave standing. Temporary Class 1 cover in Penzance keeps the unit and the trailer earning while a regular driver is away.
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.
Share the dates and the pattern. We will be straight about what we can cover.
Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
