HGV Class 1 recruitment for Sutton Coldfield

Artic work is only as good as the driver who turns up on time for it.

Trailer work out of the M6 and M42 corridor parks and the Birmingham industrial estates rarely waits for a replacement to be found. Our job is to find one who can take the unit the same week.

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

Artic traffic across the West Midlands uses the M6, M5, M42 and M40, Birmingham Airport and strong rail-freight connections, so we look for Class 1 drivers who are comfortable on those routes at any hour.

Class 1 planning

What we ask about the run

A temporary C+E driver who has pulled your trailer type before needs less induction and settles into the route faster.

Container work runs to port and terminal slots. A driver who understands booking references, weighbridges and waiting time copes with the routine far better.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • Day, night or tramping work
  • Any ADR classes the load requires
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
Compliance

Paperwork that decides it

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.

For Sutton Coldfield runs, recent trunking or haulage experience counts for more than years held on the licence.
