Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Romsey

Class 1 driver recruitment for Romsey — single nights, weeks of cover and ongoing trunk assignments.

South East

Romsey Class 1 cover, on your terms

Temporary Class 1 drivers who have done this kind of run before.

A lot of articulated freight leaves the Solent ports and the M27 corridor estates on trunk routes via the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover. That is the work our temporary C+E drivers cover.

For Romsey 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 retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

HGV Class 1 / C+E

Class 1 shifts we fill

Artic work, matched to the driver who knows it.

How it works

Getting a driver booked

You send the brief

Trailer type, route profile, start time and how many nights. Two minutes on a form or a call is enough.

You confirm the booking

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

The driver is briefed

Site rules, the unit, the first job and who to report to — before the driver arrives.

Class 1 planning

Before you book a C+E driver

Across the South East, 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.

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:

  • The start time and the first run
  • How many nights or weeks of cover
  • Any ADR classes the load requires
  • Who the driver reports to and where to collect the keys
Compliance

Verified every time

The drivers' hours rules that apply depend on the work — GB domestic, assimilated or AETR. We brief the driver on the rules your runs fall under.

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