Class 2 driver recruitment for Felixstowe — early starts, multi-drop rounds and weeks of holiday cover.
Class 2 cover starts with the vehicle and the round, then the driver.
Merchant and construction drops around Felixstowe mean rough ground, cranes and unloading on site. Say so in the brief and we match accordingly.
Seasonal peaks across Suffolk & the Haven ports often add a round the rota cannot staff. A temporary Class 2 driver covers it without a permanent hire.
Rigid rounds from the Port of Felixstowe, the A14 freight corridor and the Haven Gateway parks deliver into town centres, retail parks and building sites across Suffolk & the Haven ports.
Typical rounds a temporary Class 2 driver covers.
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.
Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.
A driver who already knows tail-lift work or site deliveries needs less supervision on the first day and gets the round done safely.
Builders' merchant and construction deliveries often mean rough ground, restricted access and unloading by crane. Drivers we put forward for them have worked on sites before.
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.
We ask Category C drivers which rounds and bodies they have worked, then match on that rather than on the licence category by itself.
