Keep eighteen- and twenty-six-tonne rigids working across the East Midlands with temporary Category C drivers.
The licence is the minimum; experience of the delivery environment is the brief.
Class 2 drivers across the East Midlands work with national distribution centres, 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and rail-connected freight operations. Each round has its own rhythm and we brief the driver on it first.
For Ripley operators we cover single days, full weeks and ongoing rigid assignments. Planned cover can be booked in advance.
Rigid rounds from the Golden Triangle parks at DIRFT, Magna Park and Hams Hall deliver into town centres, retail parks and building sites across the East Midlands.
Rigid rounds where a temporary driver fits.
