Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Lewisham

Temporary HGV Class 2 drivers for rigid store deliveries, merchant runs and regional distribution in Lewisham.

London & the South East

Class 2 cover for Lewisham

Class 2 cover starts with the vehicle and the round, then the driver.

Class 2 drivers across London & the South East work with last-mile and parcel carriers, grocery and e-commerce fulfilment, airfreight forwarders and national 3PLs. Each round has its own rhythm and we brief the driver on it first.

Tail-lift, HIAB or curtainside: tell us what the vehicle carries and we match a driver who has worked with it.

Depots across the Heathrow airfreight belt, Park Royal, Enfield and the Thames Gateway run early rigid departures. The first drop sets the pace for the day.

Rigids over 12 tonnes need a valid HGV safety permit to operate in Greater London. Every lorry over 3.5 tonnes also falls under the Low Emission Zone, so the vehicle is checked first.

The rigid work we cover

Class 2 cover across the main types of rigid work.

How it works

How a Class 2 booking works

You send the round

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

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.

Rigid planning

Before you book a Category C driver

A rigid parked in the yard is a round that does not happen. Temporary Class 2 cover in Lewisham keeps customers supplied while a regular driver is off.

Store deliveries across London & the South East follow a tight routine at the back door: booking-in, unloading and returns. A driver who knows the routine keeps the store on schedule.

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • The start time and the finish you expect
  • How many days or weeks of cover
  • Whether the driver collects signatures, returns or paperwork
Compliance

What every Class 2 driver holds

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.

Early starts suit some drivers far better than others. We confirm the driver is comfortable with the start time before they are put forward.
