Temporary Class 1 drivers in Stirling

Class 1 cover starts with the trailer and the route, then the driver.

Class 1 work across Scotland leans on the M8, M74, M77 and M90, Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and the ports at Grangemouth, the Clyde and Aberdeen. Drivers we book know how those roads run at night as well as in the day.

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

Hauliers serving whisky and food and drink distribution, retail and grocery DCs, port and intermodal operators and Scottish 3PLs need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.

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

You send the brief

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

We match the driver

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

We stay on the booking

If the cover needs extending, you tell us and we plan the next shifts.

Class 1 planning

The details a Class 1 match needs

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

Trunk legs from Stirling can be long, so drivers' hours planning matters. Tell us the timings and we brief the driver on how the day is expected to run.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • Where the tractor unit is based
  • 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

The compliance we confirm

Driver CPC means 35 hours of periodic training every five years. We confirm it is current, along with C+E entitlement, the tacho card and right to work.

Reversing onto a busy bay, handling a double-deck trailer and working to a slot time are the skills that decide a Class 1 shift.

Class 1 FAQs

Frequently asked

Can you cover night trunking?

Yes. Tell us the start time and the legs. We match drivers who want night work and have run trunks before.

Do you supply drivers for tramping work?

Yes, where the driver wants nights out. Tell us how many nights and what the parking and facilities are like.

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.
