Keep tractor units moving across London & the South East with temporary C+E drivers matched to the trailer and the route.
Class 1 cover starts with the trailer and the route, then the driver.
Operators across London & the South East run curtainsiders, boxes and fridges along the M25 orbital, the A13 and A406, Heathrow Airport and the deep-water ports at London Gateway and Tilbury. The trailer type is the first thing we ask about.
Double-deck trailers, walking-floor units, tautliners or reefers — say what the driver will pull and we match someone who has pulled it.
From London Gateway and the Thames Gateway, Park Royal, Enfield and the Heathrow airfreight belt, C+E work ranges from overnight trunks to day haulage and yard moves.
Lorries over 3.5 tonnes in Greater London fall under the Low Emission Zone rather than the ULEZ. Lorries over 12 tonnes also need a valid HGV safety permit, so we check your units before we book.
Where temporary C+E drivers make the biggest difference.
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.
Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
An artic without a driver is expensive to leave standing. Temporary Class 1 cover in Waltham Forest keeps the unit and the trailer earning while a regular driver is away.
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:
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.
Before accepting, the driver hears the whole brief: the unit, the trailer, the start time and any nights out.
Give us the unit, the run and the start time and we will do the rest.
Category C+E entitlement, a current Driver CPC — 35 hours of periodic training every five years — and a digital tachograph card, plus ADR for dangerous goods work.
Yes. Tell us the port or rail terminal, the booking pattern and the trailer type so we match a driver who knows the routine.
Yes. Tell us how many drivers you need and whether they start together or in stages.
Yes. Weekend trunks and bank holiday shifts can be booked like any other. Tell us the dates as early as you can.
Yes. Tell us it is reefer work so we match a Class 1 driver who has monitored a fridge unit and handled temperature paperwork.
