Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Richmond

Rigid-lorry cover for Richmond and Yorkshire & the Humber: Class 2 drivers booked around your rounds, your tail-lifts and your delivery windows.

North Yorkshire

Rigid drivers for Richmond operators

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

Merchant and construction drops around Richmond mean rough ground, cranes and unloading on site. Say so in the brief and we match accordingly.

If the round has timed deliveries, say so. Drivers who are used to booking-in slots plan the day differently.

Depots across North Yorkshire are served by the A1(M), the A19, the A64 and the East Coast Main Line. Their rigids deliver to the towns in between.

Where Class 2 cover gets used

Class 2 cover across the main types of rigid work.

How it works

Booking a Category C driver

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.

Short-notice requests

Urgent cover gets a straight answer on what we can confirm.

Rigid planning

Setting up rigid cover

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:

  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • How many drops and the delivery windows
  • Any site access or unloading restrictions
  • Whether the driver collects signatures, returns or paperwork
Compliance

Licence, CPC and tacho

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.

Delivery gap on the rota?

One request can cover a single day or several weeks.

Class 2 FAQs

Good to know

Can you cover multi-drop rigid rounds?

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

How much notice do you need?

Planned cover is easiest with a few days' notice. Short-notice requests get a straight answer on what we can confirm.

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 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.

Can you cover Saturday rounds?

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