North Yorkshire

Temporary Class 1 drivers in Richmond

The right licence is the minimum; the right experience is the brief.

A lot of articulated freight leaves the Dales and Vale of York agricultural distribution network on trunk routes via the A1(M), the A19, the A64 and the East Coast Main Line. That is the work our temporary C+E drivers cover.

If the work involves nights out, say so up front. Tramping suits some drivers and not others. Matching the right one first time saves everyone a wasted shift.

Class 1 demand across North Yorkshire follows food and drink manufacturers, agricultural supply chains, rural distribution operators and A1 trunking hauliers, which is why peak-season artic cover is worth booking early.

HGV Class 1 / C+E

Class 1 work we can cover

Where temporary C+E drivers make the biggest difference.

How it works

What happens after you ask

We match the driver

We look for C+E drivers who have run similar work and want that shift pattern.

You confirm the booking

We tell you who is starting, when and where, so the transport office can plan around it.

Planned cover in advance

Holidays and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead so the rota is settled early.

Class 1 planning

Planning Class 1 cover

Some Class 1 bookings are a single night. Others settle into a regular pattern that runs for months. Both begin with the same request.

Class 1 shifts tend to fall into three shapes: nights trunking between hubs, days on general haulage and tramping with nights out. Each suits a different driver, so we ask which one you run.

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
  • Who the driver reports to and where to collect the keys
Compliance

The compliance we confirm

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.

C+E drivers tell us which routes and trailers they know best. We match on that experience, not on the entitlement alone.
