Class 1 cover for Uddingston

Trunk routes, container work and distribution, covered by one desk.

Trailer work out of the M8 corridor parks at Eurocentral, Bellshill and Newhouse 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.

Class 1 demand across Scotland follows retail and grocery distribution, food, drink and whisky supply chains, energy logistics and national 3PLs, which is why peak-season artic cover is worth booking early.

Artic work, matched to the driver who knows it.

How it works

How a Class 1 booking works

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.

You confirm the booking

We tell you who is starting, when and where, so the transport office can plan around it.

Class 1 planning

What to include in a Class 1 request

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

Retail distribution for supermarkets and big-box stores carries its own rules on delivery slots, paperwork and yard safety. We brief drivers on the site's rules before they arrive.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • The trailer type: curtainsider, box, fridge, flatbed or tanker
  • Day, night or tramping work
  • The start time and the first run
  • Any ADR classes the load requires

What every Class 1 driver holds

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.

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.
