C+E drivers for Stamford

Temporary HGV Class 1 Drivers in Stamford

C+E drivers for Stamford operators — nights, days and nights out, checked before they take the keys.

East Midlands

Tractor-unit cover for Stamford

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

Class 1 work across the East Midlands leans on the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal. Drivers we book know how those roads run at night as well as in the day.

Busy months across the East Midlands often mean one more night trunk than the rota can staff. A temporary Class 1 driver covers it without a permanent hire.

Hauliers serving big-shed national DCs, 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and air and rail freight operations need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

What Class 1 drivers do here

Where temporary C+E drivers make the biggest difference.

How it works

Our booking process

We match the driver

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

We check the paperwork

Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.

Urgent cover handled fast

Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.

Class 1 planning

What we ask about the run

Planned Class 1 cover for holidays, training and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead, so your planners are not searching on the day.

Weekend and bank holiday trunks are hard to staff from a permanent rota, which makes them a natural fit for temporary Class 1 cover.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • The trailer type: curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed or tanker
  • The start time and the first run
  • Any ADR classes the load requires
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
Compliance

The checks behind every booking

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.

Nights and tramping suit some drivers and not others. We confirm the driver wants the pattern before they are put forward.

Night trunk to cover?

Tell us about the run

How many nights, which trailer and where the unit is based — that is enough to start.

Class 1 FAQs

The detail

How much notice do you need?

Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.

Can you supply several Class 1 drivers at once?

Yes. Tell us how many drivers you need and whether they start together or in stages.

Do you also recruit permanent Class 1 drivers?

Yes. Our permanent driver desk places Class 1 drivers onto your payroll when you want a seat filled for good.

Do you supply drivers for chilled and frozen work?

Yes. Tell us it is reefer work so we match a Class 1 driver who has monitored a fridge unit and handled temperature paperwork.

What trailer types can your drivers pull?

Tell us the trailer (curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed, double-deck or tanker) and we match a driver who has worked with it.
