Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Melton Mowbray

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

Temporary Class 2 drivers in Melton Mowbray

Rigid drivers who can reverse onto a tight site and still make the next window.

Across the East Midlands, rigid rounds start from sites such as DIRFT (Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal), Magna Park and the big-shed parks on the M1 and A14. We ask where the vehicle is based and what the drops look like before anything else.

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

Category C work across the East Midlands serves national distribution centres, 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and rail-connected freight operations, with rounds built around store slots and site hours.

Class 2 work we can cover

Rigid rounds where a temporary driver fits.

How it works

What happens after you ask

We match the driver

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

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

The details a Class 2 match needs

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:

  • Where the rigid is based
  • How many drops and the delivery windows
  • How many days or weeks of cover
  • Whether the driver collects signatures, returns or paperwork
Compliance

The compliance we confirm

Every Class 2 driver we confirm holds category C entitlement, a current Driver CPC and a valid digital tachograph card, with right to work established first.

We ask Category C drivers which rounds and bodies they have worked, then match on that rather than on the licence category by itself.

Class 2 FAQs

Frequently asked

Can you cover multi-drop rigid rounds?

Yes. Tell us how many drops, the delivery windows and whether the vehicle has a tail-lift.

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.

Can you cover early starts?

Yes. Many rigid rounds start before six. We match drivers who are used to that pattern.

Do you also recruit permanent Class 2 drivers?

Yes. Our permanent driver desk places Class 2 drivers onto your payroll when you want a permanent hire.

Can you cover Saturday rounds?

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