When an artic seat is empty in Pontypool, we source a Class 1 driver who has run that kind of work before.
Nights, days or tramping — we match the driver to the pattern.
Class 1 work across Wales leans on the M4 and A55 North Wales Expressway, Cardiff Airport and the ports at Cardiff, Newport, Swansea and Holyhead. Drivers we book know how those roads run at night as well as in the day.
Hauliers and 3PLs across Wales book Class 1 cover for holiday gaps, sickness and new contracts. Tell us the pattern and the length of the booking.
Operators with units based across the Bridgend and Llanelli manufacturing estates 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.
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.
Class 1 work is where gaps hurt most: a missed trunk can delay every drop that depends on it the next morning. Booking cover early protects the whole chain.
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:
No Class 1 driver is confirmed until the licence shows C+E, the Driver CPC card is in date and the tacho card and right-to-work checks are complete.
A Class 1 driver who knows coupling checks, load security and the daily walkaround check protects your unit and your operator's licence record.
How many nights, which trailer and where the unit is based — that is enough to start.
Yes. We source temporary HGV Class 1 (C+E) drivers for trunking, tramping, container and general haulage work across Wales. Tell us the trailer, the route and the start time.
Category C+E entitlement, a current Driver CPC — 35 hours of periodic training every five years — and a digital tachograph card, plus ADR for dangerous goods work.
Yes, where the driver wants nights out. Tell us how many nights and what the parking and facilities are like.
Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
Yes. We book Class 1 drivers for sites across Wales. Tell us where the unit is based.
