Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Howden

When a rigid is parked up in Howden for want of a driver, we source a Class 2 driver who knows that kind of round.

Temporary Class 2 drivers in Howden

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

Store deliveries out of Goole and the M62 eastern corridor distribution parks often start before six. We book drivers who want early starts rather than tolerate them.

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

Category C work across the Humber & East Yorkshire serves port and bulk terminal operators, offshore wind and renewables supply chains, chemicals and food processing and rail-linked 3PLs, with rounds built around store slots and site hours.

Rigid planning

The details a Class 2 match needs

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

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

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • The body type: curtainside, box, tipper, flatbed or tanker
  • How many drops and the delivery windows
  • Any site access or unloading restrictions
  • Who the driver reports to at the depot
Compliance

The compliance we confirm

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.

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