Rigid-lorry cover for Newport

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

Much of the Class 2 work across Wales supplies port and steel logistics, automotive and manufacturing supply chains, retail distribution and regional 3PLs. Those rounds reward drivers who handle customers well at the door.

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 Wales are served by the M4 and A55 North Wales Expressway, Cardiff Airport and the ports at Cardiff, Newport, Swansea and Holyhead. Their rigids deliver to the towns in between.

What Class 2 drivers do here

Rigid rounds where a temporary driver fits.

How it works

Our booking process

We match the driver

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

Cover can be extended

If the gap runs longer, tell us and we plan the next days.

Planned cover booked early

Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.

Rigid planning

Planning rigid cover

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.

Refuse and municipal rounds are Class 2 work with a public face. The brief covers the route, the crew and the safety rules for working on the street.

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • How many drops and the delivery windows
  • How many days or weeks of cover
  • Any site access or unloading restrictions
Compliance

The checks behind every booking

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.

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

Class 2 FAQs

The detail

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 cover depots near Newport?

Yes. We book Class 2 drivers for depots and sites across Wales. Tell us where the vehicle is based.

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.
