C+E drivers for Tunbridge Wells operators — nights, days and nights out, checked before they take the keys.
Class 1 cover starts with the trailer and the route, then the driver.
A lot of articulated freight leaves the M25 and M3 corridors, the south-coast ports and the distribution parks around Gatwick on trunk routes via the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover. That is the work our temporary C+E drivers cover.
Double-deck trailers, walking-floor units, tautliners or reefers — say what the driver will pull and we match someone who has pulled it.
Class 1 demand across the South East follows retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs, which is why peak-season artic cover is worth booking early.
Where temporary C+E drivers make the biggest difference.
Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.
Holidays and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead so the rota is settled early.
Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
Planned Class 1 cover for holidays, training and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead, so your planners are not searching on the day.
Chilled and frozen work adds temperature checks and fridge-unit monitoring to the job. Say so in the brief and we look for drivers who have run reefers.
For a Class 1 request, include:
Every Class 1 driver we confirm holds category C+E entitlement, a current Driver CPC and a valid digital tachograph card, with right to work established first.
Past the licence check, we look at recent artic work: trailer types, distances and whether the driver has done nights lately.
Share the dates and the pattern. We will be straight about what we can cover.
