Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Oxford

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

South East

Keeping Oxford delivery rounds running

The licence is the minimum; experience of the delivery environment is the brief.

Across the South East, rigid rounds start from sites such as the Dartford and Thames-side parks and the M20 route to the Channel. We ask where the vehicle is based and what the drops look like before anything else.

Hiring a permanent rigid driver too? Our permanent driver desk can run that search while the temporary cover keeps the round going.

Rigids across the South East rely on the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover to reach customers inside tight delivery windows.

Rounds we staff

Typical rounds a temporary Class 2 driver covers.

How it works

Three steps to cover

You send the round

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

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

Before you book a Category C driver

Across the South East, rigid work swings with construction activity, retail peaks and the weather. Temporary drivers let the fleet flex without changing the payroll.

Many Class 2 rounds from Oxford run to delivery windows. Tell us the windows and we brief the driver on the order of drops.

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • The start time and the finish you expect
  • How many days or weeks of cover
  • Whether the driver collects signatures, returns or paperwork
Compliance

Before the first drop

The drivers' hours rules depend on the work — GB domestic, assimilated or AETR. We brief the driver on the rules your rounds fall under.

After the licence, the next question is recent rigid work: body types, drop counts and the sites the driver knows.

Short of rigid drivers?

Class 2 FAQs

Your Class 2 questions

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 Oxford?

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

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.
