Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Hedon

Rigid-lorry cover for Hedon and Yorkshire & the Humber: Class 2 drivers booked around your rounds, your tail-lifts and your delivery windows.

Humber & East Yorkshire

Rigid drivers for Hedon operators

The licence is the minimum; experience of the delivery environment is the brief.

Class 2 drivers across the Humber & East Yorkshire work with container and ro-ro operators, energy and bulk logistics, chilled food distribution and regional hauliers. Each round has its own rhythm and we brief the driver on it first.

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 Immingham and the South Humber bank terminals run early rigid departures. The first drop sets the pace for the day.

Where Class 2 cover gets used

Typical rounds a temporary Class 2 driver covers.

How it works

Booking a Category C driver

We check the licence

Category C, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.

The driver is briefed

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

Planned cover booked early

Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.

Rigid planning

What to include in a Class 2 request

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:

  • The body type: curtainside, box, tipper, flatbed or tanker
  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • How many drops and the delivery windows
  • How many days or weeks of cover
Compliance

Licence, CPC and tacho

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.

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