Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Macduff

Store replenishment, builders' merchants and tipper work around Macduff, covered by experienced Class 2 drivers.

North East Scotland

Macduff rigid cover, when you need it

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

Store deliveries out of the A90 corridor, Dyce and the Bridge of Don industrial estates often start before six. We book drivers who want early starts rather than tolerate them.

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

Rigids across North East Scotland rely on the A90 and A96, Aberdeen harbour and Aberdeen International Airport to reach customers inside tight delivery windows.

Class 2 cover across the main types of rigid work.

How it works

Getting a driver booked

We match the driver

We look for Category C drivers who have worked similar rounds and want that pattern.

We check the licence

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

Planned cover booked early

Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.

Rigid planning

Setting up rigid cover

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

Drinks, food service and chilled rounds combine early starts with heavy handling and customer contact. The brief says what the driver will lift and where.

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
  • Any ADR or HIAB tickets required
Compliance

Verified every time

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.

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

Class 2 FAQs

Before you book

What licence does a Class 2 driver need?

Category C, which covers vehicles over 3,500kg with a trailer up to 750kg, plus a current Driver CPC and a digital tachograph card.

Do you supply drivers with a HIAB ticket?

Yes, where the work needs one. Tell us the lorry-loader and the type of loads so we match the right ticket.

How much notice do you need?

Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.

Can drivers handle customer paperwork?

Yes. Tell us what the driver collects at each drop (signatures, returns or delivery notes) and we brief them on it.

Can you cover Saturday rounds?

Yes. Saturday and bank holiday rounds can be booked in the same way as weekday cover.
