When a rigid is parked up in Colwyn Bay for want of a driver, we source a Class 2 driver who knows that kind of round.
Class 2 cover starts with the vehicle and the round, then the driver.
Much of the Class 2 work across North Wales supplies advanced manufacturing and aerospace, Irish Sea ferry and groupage operators, food processing and regional 3PLs. Those rounds reward drivers who handle customers well at the door.
For Colwyn Bay operators we cover single days, full weeks and ongoing rigid assignments. Planned cover can be booked in advance.
Depots across the Wrexham Industrial Estate and the A483 corridor run early rigid departures. The first drop sets the pace for the day.
From store deliveries to site drops.
We look for Category C drivers who have worked similar rounds and want that pattern.
We tell you the driver's name, start time and site so the depot can plan.
If the gap runs longer, tell us and we plan the next days.
A single missed day can be covered. So can a month. The request looks the same either way.
Drinks, food service and chilled rounds combine early starts with heavy handling and customer contact. The brief says what the driver will lift and where.
For a Class 2 request, include:
No Class 2 driver is confirmed until the licence shows category C, the Driver CPC card is in date and the tacho card and right-to-work checks are complete.
Manual handling, site safety and customer contact are part of most rigid rounds. We say so to the driver before they accept.
How many days, which vehicle and where it is based — that is enough to start.
Category C, which covers vehicles over 3,500kg with a trailer up to 750kg, plus a current Driver CPC and a digital tachograph card.
Yes, where the work needs one. Tell us the lorry-loader and the type of loads so we match the right ticket.
Yes. Many rigid rounds start before six. We match drivers who are used to that pattern.
Yes. Our permanent driver desk places Class 2 drivers onto your payroll when you want a permanent hire.
Yes. Tell us what the driver collects at each drop (signatures, returns or delivery notes) and we brief them on it.
