Store replenishment, builders' merchants and tipper work around Duns, covered by experienced Class 2 drivers.
Multi-drop work needs pace and care in equal measure; we brief for both.
From the Lockerbie and Gretna distribution points on the A74(M), rigid work fans out into towns, estates and retail parks. We match drivers who know how awkward a site delivery can be.
Tipper and bulk work has its own demands — weighbridges, tipping sites and loose loads. Drivers we book for it have done it before.
Depots across southern Scotland are served by the A74(M), the M74, the A7, the A1 and the Cairnryan ferry terminals. Their rigids deliver to the towns in between.
Rigid work, matched to the driver who knows it.
Vehicle, number of drops, delivery windows and start time. A short form or call is enough.
Category C, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.
If the gap runs longer, tell us and we plan the next days.
A rigid parked in the yard is a round that does not happen. Temporary Class 2 cover in Duns keeps customers supplied while a regular driver is off.
Refuse and municipal rounds are Class 2 work with a public face. The brief covers the route, the crew and the safety rules for working on the street.
For a Class 2 request, include:
Where the job needs a HIAB ticket or ADR we confirm those too. The standard checks — category C, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work — apply to every booking.

One request can cover a single day or several weeks.
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.
Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.
Yes, where the driver has tipper experience. Tell us the material, the sites and whether a weighbridge is involved.
Yes. Tell us what the driver collects at each drop (signatures, returns or delivery notes) and we brief them on it.
