Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Hyde

Rigid-lorry cover for Hyde and the North West: Class 2 drivers booked around your rounds, your tail-lifts and your delivery windows.

North West

Rigid drivers for Hyde operators

Store, merchant and depot rounds, covered by one driving desk.

Across the North West, rigid rounds start from sites such as the Trafford Park and Salford estates and the Manchester Ship Canal. We ask where the vehicle is based and what the drops look like before anything else.

For Hyde operators we cover single days, full weeks and ongoing rigid assignments. Planned cover can be booked in advance.

Depots across the North West are served by the M6, M62, M56 and M61, Manchester and Liverpool airports and the Port of Liverpool. Their rigids deliver to the towns in between.

Where Class 2 cover gets used

Rigid work, matched to the driver who knows it.

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.

You confirm who is coming

We tell you the driver's name, start time and site so the depot can plan.

Planned cover booked early

Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.

Rigid planning

Before you book a Category C driver

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 Hyde run to delivery windows. Tell us the windows and we brief the driver on the order of drops.

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • How many drops and the delivery windows
  • The start time and the finish you expect
  • Whether the driver collects signatures, returns or paperwork
  • Who the driver reports to at the depot
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.

On Hyde rounds, what a driver did last month tells us more than how long they have held category C.
