Class 2 driver recruitment for Croydon — early starts, multi-drop rounds and weeks of holiday cover.
Rigid drivers who can reverse onto a tight site and still make the next window.
Store deliveries out of London Gateway and the Thames Gateway, Park Royal, Enfield and the Heathrow airfreight belt often start before six. We book drivers who want early starts rather than tolerate them.
Hiring a permanent rigid driver too? Our permanent driver desk can run that search while the temporary cover keeps the round going.
Depots across London & the South East are served by the M25 orbital, the A13 and A406, Heathrow Airport and the deep-water ports at London Gateway and Tilbury. Their rigids deliver to the towns in between.
Rigids over 12 tonnes need a valid HGV safety permit to operate in Greater London. Every lorry over 3.5 tonnes also falls under the Low Emission Zone, so the vehicle is checked first.
Typical rounds a temporary Class 2 driver covers.
Vehicle, number of drops, delivery windows and start time. A short form or call is enough.
We tell you the driver's name, start time and site so the depot can plan.
Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.
A single missed day can be covered. So can a month. The request looks the same either way.
Tipper and aggregate work means quarries, weighbridges and tipping sites. It suits a driver who has done it before, which is exactly what we look for.
For a Class 2 request, include:
Category C covers vehicles over 3,500kg with a trailer up to 750kg. We check that entitlement on the licence, review endorsements and confirm the Driver CPC card is in date.
A Class 2 driver who handles a tail-lift safely, reverses with care and deals politely with the customer is worth more than one who only drives well.
