Temporary HGV Class 2 drivers for rigid store deliveries, merchant runs and regional distribution in Houghton-le-Spring.

North East

Class 2 cover for Houghton-le-Spring

Temporary Category C drivers who have run this kind of round before.

Across the North East, rigid rounds start from sites such as the Port of Tyne and the Nissan and Washington supply-chain parks. We ask where the vehicle is based and what the drops look like before anything else.

Hiring a permanent rigid driver too? Our permanent driver desk can run that search while the temporary cover keeps the round going.

Rigids across the North East rely on the A1(M), A19 and A66, Newcastle Airport and the ports at Tyne and Teesport to reach customers inside tight delivery windows.

How it works

How a Class 2 booking works

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

Cover can be extended

If the gap runs longer, tell us and we plan the next days.

Rigid planning

Setting up rigid cover

Booking Class 2 cover ahead of the holiday season gives the widest choice and keeps the depot manager out of the scramble.

Many Class 2 rounds from Houghton-le-Spring run to delivery windows. Tell us the windows and we brief the driver on the order of drops.

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • The start time and the finish you expect
  • Any ADR or HIAB tickets required
  • Who the driver reports to at the depot
Compliance

What every Class 2 driver holds

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.

Every driver is told the vehicle, the drops, the start time and anything unusual about the sites before they say yes.
