North East

Rigid-lorry cover for Ashington

Early starts, tail-lifts and awkward sites — matched to drivers who like that work.

Operators across the Port of Tyne and the Nissan and Washington supply-chain parks run rigids on tight delivery windows. Temporary Category C drivers keep those windows when a regular driver is off.

Seasonal peaks across the North East often add a round the rota cannot staff. A temporary Class 2 driver covers it without a permanent hire.

Class 2 cover across the North East is mostly about supporting automotive and chemicals supply chains, port and bulk logistics, retail distribution and regional 3PLs through holidays and busy weeks.

What Class 2 drivers do here

From store deliveries to site drops.

How it works

Our booking process

We match the driver

We look for Category C drivers who have worked similar rounds and want that pattern.

You confirm who is coming

We tell you the driver's name, start time and site so the depot can plan.

Planned cover booked early

Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.

Rigid planning

The details a Class 2 match needs

A driver who already knows tail-lift work or site deliveries needs less supervision on the first day and gets the round done safely.

Store deliveries across the North East follow a tight routine at the back door: booking-in, unloading and returns. A driver who knows the routine keeps the store on schedule.

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • Where the rigid is based
  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • Any site access or unloading restrictions
  • Who the driver reports to at the depot
Compliance

The checks behind every booking

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

We ask Category C drivers which rounds and bodies they have worked, then match on that rather than on the licence category by itself.
