Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Newmarket

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

East of England

Keeping Newmarket delivery rounds running

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

From the Port of Felixstowe and the A14 corridor, Stansted and the parks along the A1 and M11, rigid work fans out into towns, estates and retail parks. We match drivers who know how awkward a site delivery can be.

Tipper and bulk work has its own demands — weighbridges, tipping sites and loose loads. Drivers we book for it have done it before.

Depots across the East of England are served by the A14, M11, A1(M) and A12, the Port of Felixstowe and London Stansted Airport. Their rigids deliver to the towns in between.

Rounds we staff

Rigid work, matched to the driver who knows it.

How it works

Three steps to cover

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.

You confirm who is coming

We tell you the driver's name, start time and site so the depot can plan.

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
  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • Any site access or unloading restrictions
  • Any ADR or HIAB tickets required
Compliance

Before the first drop

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.

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