Class 1 cover for Settle

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

Night trunking between the A1(M) corridor distribution points around Northallerton and Thirsk and the national hubs is typical Class 1 work across North Yorkshire. We match drivers who want night work, not just any shift.

For Settle operators we cover single nights, full weeks and ongoing trunk assignments. Planned cover can be booked ahead; urgent cover is handled as it lands.

Class 1 demand across North Yorkshire follows agri-food and dairy processing, agricultural machinery and supply, retail distribution and regional hauliers, which is why peak-season artic cover is worth booking early.

Class 1 planning

What to include in a Class 1 request

Across North Yorkshire, 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.

Operators near Settle run a mix of their own units and subcontracted work. Temporary Class 1 drivers slot into your operation under your planning and your procedures.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • The trailer type: curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed or tanker
  • The start time and the first run
  • Whether the work is trunking, container or general haulage
  • Who the driver reports to and where to collect the keys
Compliance

What every Class 1 driver holds

We check C+E entitlement on the licence itself, review endorsements, confirm Driver CPC currency and the card expiry and check the tachograph card before the first run.

A Class 1 driver who knows coupling checks, load security and the daily walkaround check protects your unit and your operator's licence record.
