Temporary HGV Class 1 drivers for trunking, tramping, container and general haulage work out of Thurso.
Trunk routes, container work and distribution, covered by one desk.
Trailer work out of the A9 and A82 trunk routes and the northern ferry terminals rarely waits for a replacement to be found. Our job is to find one who can take the unit the same week.
Container work carries its own rhythm: port slots, booking references and waiting time. Drivers we book for it know the routine.
Hauliers serving whisky and food and drink distribution, renewable energy logistics, island and remote-delivery operators and regional hauliers need drivers who can handle the trailer types those customers use.
Class 1 cover across the main types of artic work.
We tell you who is starting, when and where, so the transport office can plan around it.
If the cover needs extending, you tell us and we plan the next shifts.
Holidays and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead so the rota is settled early.
Some Class 1 bookings are a single night. Others settle into a regular pattern that runs for months. Both begin with the same request.
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:
For dangerous goods we also confirm the ADR classes held and their renewal date. The standard checks — C+E, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work — apply to every booking.
Past the licence check, we look at recent artic work: trailer types, distances and whether the driver has done nights lately.
One request can cover a single night or a run of weeks.
Yes. We source temporary HGV Class 1 (C+E) drivers for trunking, tramping, container and general haulage work across the Highlands & Islands. Tell us the trailer, the route and the start time.

Yes. Tell us the port or rail terminal, the booking pattern and the trailer type so we match a driver who knows the routine.
Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
