Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Leicester

Class 2 driver recruitment for Leicester — early starts, multi-drop rounds and weeks of holiday cover.

Leicestershire

Keeping Leicester delivery rounds running

Multi-drop work needs pace and care in equal measure; we brief for both.

From Magna Park at Lutterworth, the M1/M69 parks and the East Midlands distribution corridor, rigid work fans out into towns, estates and retail parks. We match drivers who know how awkward a site delivery can be.

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

Depots across Leicestershire are served by the M1, M69 and A6, East Midlands Airport and nearby rail freight terminals. Their rigids deliver to the towns in between.

Rounds we staff

Typical rounds a temporary Class 2 driver covers.

How it works

Three steps to cover

You send the round

Vehicle, number of drops, delivery windows and start time. A short form or call is enough.

Cover can be extended

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

Planned cover booked early

Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.

Rigid planning

What to include in a Class 2 request

A driver who already knows tail-lift work or site deliveries needs less supervision on the first day and gets the round done safely.

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
  • The start time and the finish you expect
  • Who the driver reports to at the depot
Compliance

Before the first drop

The drivers' hours rules depend on the work — GB domestic, assimilated or AETR. We brief the driver on the rules your rounds fall under.

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