C+E drivers for Wick routes

The right licence is the minimum; the right experience is the brief.

Operators across the Highlands & Islands run curtainsiders, boxes and fridges along the A9 and A82, Inverness Airport and the ferry links to Orkney, Shetland and the Western Isles. The trailer type is the first thing we ask about.

Container work carries its own rhythm: port slots, booking references and waiting time. Drivers we book for it know the routine.

From the Inverness Airport Business Park and the Cromarty Firth ports at Invergordon and Nisbet, C+E work ranges from overnight trunks to day haulage and yard moves.

How it works

From request to first shift

You send the brief

Trailer type, route profile, start time and how many nights. Two minutes on a form or a call is enough.

We stay on the booking

If the cover needs extending, you tell us and we plan the next shifts.

Planned cover in advance

Holidays and known peaks can be booked weeks ahead so the rota is settled early.

Class 1 planning

What we ask about the run

Some Class 1 bookings are a single night. Others settle into a regular pattern that runs for months. Both begin with the same request.

Operators near Wick run a mix of their own units and subcontracted work. Temporary Class 1 drivers slot into your operation under your planning and your procedures.

For a Class 1 request, include:

  • The start time and the first run
  • Double-deck, drawbar or walking-floor experience if needed
  • Parking and facilities for nights out
  • Who the driver reports to and where to collect the keys
Compliance

Checked before the first run

Driver CPC means 35 hours of periodic training every five years. We confirm it is current, along with C+E entitlement, the tacho card and right to work.

C+E drivers tell us which routes and trailers they know best. We match on that experience, not on the entitlement alone.

Class 1 FAQs

Class 1 questions

How much notice do you need?

Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.

Do you cover sites near Wick?

Yes. We book Class 1 drivers for sites across Scotland. Tell us where the unit is based.

Can you supply several Class 1 drivers at once?

Yes. Tell us how many drivers you need and whether they start together or in stages.

Can you cover weekend and bank holiday work?

Yes. Weekend trunks and bank holiday shifts can be booked like any other. Tell us the dates as early as you can.

Do you supply drivers for chilled and frozen work?

Yes. Tell us it is reefer work so we match a Class 1 driver who has monitored a fridge unit and handled temperature paperwork.
