South East

Rigid-lorry cover for Didcot

Store, merchant and depot rounds, covered by one driving desk.

Operators across the M3, M4 and M20 corridors and the airfreight hubs at Gatwick and Heathrow run rigids on tight delivery windows. Temporary Category C drivers keep those windows when a regular driver is off.

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

Category C work across the South East serves Channel-port and customs operators, chilled grocery distribution, aerospace supply chains and regional carriers, with rounds built around store slots and site hours.

What Class 2 drivers do here

Where temporary Category C drivers help most.

How it works

Our booking process

You send the round

Vehicle, number of drops, delivery windows and start time. A short form or call is enough.

You confirm who is coming

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

The driver is briefed

Site rules, the vehicle, the first drops and who to report to.

Rigid planning

Planning rigid cover

Across the South East, rigid work swings with construction activity, retail peaks and the weather. Temporary drivers let the fleet flex without changing the payroll.

Store deliveries across the South 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
  • The body type: curtainside, box, tipper, flatbed or tanker
  • Any ADR or HIAB tickets required
  • 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.

Manual handling, site safety and customer contact are part of most rigid rounds. We say so to the driver before they accept.

Yes. We book Class 2 drivers for depots and sites across the South East. Tell us where the vehicle is based.

Do you also recruit permanent Class 2 drivers?

Yes. Our permanent driver desk places Class 2 drivers onto your payroll when you want a permanent hire.

Can drivers handle customer paperwork?

Yes. Tell us what the driver collects at each drop (signatures, returns or delivery notes) and we brief them on it.
