When a rigid is parked up in Westminster for want of a driver, we source a Class 2 driver who knows that kind of round.
The licence is the minimum; experience of the delivery environment is the brief.
Much of the Class 2 work across London & the South East supplies e-commerce and grocery fulfilment operations, parcel and last-mile carriers, airfreight forwarders and retail distribution centres. Those rounds reward drivers who handle customers well at the door.
Tail-lift, HIAB or curtainside: tell us what the vehicle carries and we match a driver who has worked with it.
Rigids across London & the South East rely on the M25 orbital, the A13 and A406, Heathrow Airport and the deep-water ports at London Gateway and Tilbury to reach customers inside tight delivery windows.
Rigids over 12 tonnes need a valid HGV safety permit to operate in Greater London. Every lorry over 3.5 tonnes also falls under the Low Emission Zone, so the vehicle is checked first.
Where temporary Category C drivers help most.
We look for Category C drivers who have worked similar rounds and want that pattern.
Category C, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before we name the driver.
Urgent cover gets a straight answer on what we can confirm.
Booking Class 2 cover ahead of the holiday season gives the widest choice and keeps the depot manager out of the scramble.
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:
Every Class 2 driver we confirm holds category C entitlement, a current Driver CPC and a valid digital tachograph card, with right to work established first.
On Westminster rounds, what a driver did last month tells us more than how long they have held category C.
Share the dates and the round. We will be straight about what we can cover.
