West Midlands

HGV Class 2 recruitment for Rugby

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

Class 2 drivers across the West Midlands work with automotive and manufacturing supply chains, national 3PLs and retail distribution centres. Each round has its own rhythm and we brief the driver on it first.

Retailers, wholesalers and merchants across the West Midlands book Class 2 cover for holidays, sickness and busy weeks. Tell us how many drops and how long the booking runs.

Depots across Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, the i54 and the rail-freight terminals around Birmingham run early rigid departures. The first drop sets the pace for the day.

HGV Class 2 / Cat C

The rigid runs we cover

From store deliveries to site drops.

How it works

How we match the driver

We check the licence

Category C, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.

The driver is briefed

Site rules, the vehicle, the first drops and who to report to.

Planned cover booked early

Holidays and seasonal rounds can be booked weeks ahead.

Rigid planning

Planning rigid cover

A single missed day can be covered. So can a month. The request looks the same either way.

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:

  • Where the rigid is based
  • Whether it has a tail-lift or a HIAB
  • The start time and the finish you expect
  • How many days or weeks of cover
Compliance

Paperwork that decides it

No Class 2 driver is confirmed until the licence shows category C, the Driver CPC card is in date and the tacho card and right-to-work checks are complete.

Manual handling, site safety and customer contact are part of most rigid rounds. We say so to the driver before they accept.

Round to cover?

Tell us about the round

Give us the vehicle, the round and the start time and we will do the rest.

Class 2 FAQs

Common 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.

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.

Can you cover tipper work?

Yes, where the driver has tipper experience. Tell us the material, the sites and whether a weighbridge is involved.
