Temporary HGV Class 2 Drivers in Settle

Keep eighteen- and twenty-six-tonne rigids working across North Yorkshire with temporary Category C drivers.

North Yorkshire

HGV Class 2 recruitment for Settle

Store, merchant and depot rounds, covered by one driving desk.

Store deliveries out of the A1(M) corridor distribution points around Northallerton and Thirsk often start before six. We book drivers who want early starts rather than tolerate them.

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

Class 2 cover across North Yorkshire is mostly about supporting agri-food and dairy processing, agricultural machinery and supply, retail distribution and regional hauliers through holidays and busy weeks.

HGV Class 2 / Cat C

The rigid runs we cover

From store deliveries to site drops.

How it works

How we match the driver

You confirm who is coming

We tell you the driver's name, start time and site so the depot can plan.

The driver is briefed

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

Short-notice requests

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

Rigid planning

What we ask about the round

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

Rigid work is about the drop as much as the drive. Reversing onto a busy site, operating a tail-lift and getting a signature all shape how long a round takes.

For a Class 2 request, include:

  • Where the rigid is based
  • The body type: curtainside, box, tipper, flatbed or tanker
  • The start time and the finish you expect
  • Any site access or unloading restrictions
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.

We ask Category C drivers which rounds and bodies they have worked, then match on that rather than on the licence category by itself.

Class 2 FAQs

Common questions

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 supply more than one Class 2 driver?

Yes. Tell us how many drivers you need and whether they start on the same day.

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 you cover Saturday rounds?

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