Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Neath

Rigid-lorry cover for Neath and Wales: Class 2 drivers booked around your rounds, your tail-lifts and your delivery windows.

Wales

Rigid drivers for Neath operators

Early starts, tail-lifts and awkward sites — matched to drivers who like that work.

Much of the Class 2 work across Wales supplies steel and heavy manufacturing logistics, food and drink distribution, port operators and regional 3PLs. Those rounds reward drivers who handle customers well at the door.

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

Stores and sites supplied from the South Wales M4 distribution belt, the ABP ports and the Deeside Industrial Park rely on the same drivers turning up each morning, so gaps show quickly.

Where Class 2 cover gets used

Typical rounds a temporary Class 2 driver covers.

How it works

Booking a Category C driver

You send the round

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

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.

Rigid planning

What to include in a Class 2 request

Class 2 rounds are built around customer promises: store slots, site deliveries and trade counters that open at a set time. Cover protects those promises.

Builders' merchant and construction deliveries often mean rough ground, restricted access and unloading by crane. Drivers we put forward for them have worked on sites before.

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • Where the rigid is based
  • The body type: curtainside, box, tipper, flatbed or tanker
  • Any site access or unloading restrictions
  • Any ADR or HIAB tickets required
Compliance

Licence, CPC and tacho

Where the job needs a HIAB ticket or ADR we confirm those too. The standard checks — category C, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work — apply to every booking.

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