Whatever is on your licence, there is usually work for it around Lutterworth. WSUK places Class 1, Class 2, 7.5t and van drivers at depots near Lutterworth — days, nights and trunking — on weekly PAYE pay with no fee to you.
Driving jobs around Lutterworth run across four licence categories: van (B), 7.5 tonne (C1), Class 2 rigid (C) and Class 1 articulated (C+E). Rates near Lutterworth typically run £12.71—£14.00 an hour for van work, £13.00—£15.00 for 7.5t, £16.00—£20.00 for Class 2 and £18.00—£24.00 for Class 1. Anything over 3.5t needs a Driver CPC and a digital tachograph card. WSUK pays weekly through PAYE and it never costs you anything to apply.
Lutterworth (LE17) is defined by Magna Park, the largest dedicated logistics park in Europe, sitting just off the M1 at Junction 20 where the motorway meets the A5 and A426. Magna Park's millions of square feet of distribution space host national RDCs and 3PLs for grocery, retail, e-commerce and manufacturing brands, running fleets around the clock. The town sits at the very core of the logistics Golden Triangle, a short run from DIRFT rail freight at Crick and Daventry, Rugby to the south and Leicester to the north via the M1 and M69. This makes Lutterworth one of the single most concentrated points of HGV activity in the UK, with continuous trunking, shuttle and multi-drop movements feeding and emptying the park's giant sheds every day.
That scale drives exceptional demand to fill temporary driving jobs. National RDCs need Class 1 (C+E) drivers for trunking and inter-site shuttles; 3PL and pallet operators call for Class 2 (C) drivers; and store and urban deliveries suit 7.5t (C1) and multi-drop van drivers. Volumes surge sharply around retail peaks, grocery promotions and holiday absence, when even a handful of empty cabs can stall a distribution operation the size of Magna Park. WSUK supplies vetted Lutterworth drivers for temporary cover, ongoing contracts and large multi-driver mobilisations, with DVLA licence and CPC verification, right-to-work checks, PAYE payroll and tacho and working-time compliance handled up front, scaling crews up or down as the park's volumes dictate.
The category on your licence decides the vehicle, but the type of work decides what the day actually looks like. These are the three shapes most driving jobs take.
Point-to-point running between depots, often overnight, usually the same route each shift. Little or no handball, predictable hours, and the bulk of Class 1 agency work.
Ten to eighty drops a shift depending on the vehicle and the round. More physical, more customer contact, and the bulk of van, 7.5t and Class 2 work.
Yard shunting on trade plates, tramping away from home for several nights, and specialist work like ADR, HIAB or container haulage that carries its own premium.
From our Golden Triangle base we fill temporary driving jobs across Lutterworth (LE17) and Magna Park - supplying Class 1, Class 2, 7.5t and van drivers to the RDCs, 3PLs and hauliers based at Europe's largest logistics park on the M1 (J20) and A5 for cover, seasonal peaks and short-notice shifts, backed by a single local point of contact.
Tell us what you hold and we will only send you work that matches it. If you are partway through upgrading — say from C to C+E — tell us that too, because a lot of operators will take a Class 2 driver now and move them onto Class 1 work when the licence lands.
Indicative PAYE rates as a guide — actual pay varies by shift, experience and site, with premiums for nights, weekends and bank holidays. Every rate we advertise is at or above the National Living Wage.

Driving work suits people who want the rate their licence is worth, some control over the shifts they take, and to be paid properly through PAYE rather than pushed into a scheme.

It depends on what sits nearby. Areas with big distribution sheds generate trunking and Class 1 work, while towns with retail and wholesale depots generate more multi-drop on 7.5t and Class 2. Around Lutterworth we recruit across all four categories and will tell you what is actually live.
Usually yes. Most of what we place around Lutterworth is day work or night trunking that returns to the same depot, so you are home between shifts. Tramping roles that involve nights out exist too, but we only put you forward for them if you have said you want them.
Category B (a standard car licence) covers vans up to 3.5t. C1 covers 3.5—7.5t. C covers rigids over 3.5t, which the industry calls Class 2. C+E covers articulated and drawbar, which the industry calls Class 1. Anything above 3.5t driven commercially also needs a Driver CPC and a digital tachograph card.
Van and multi-drop work is typically £12.71—£14.00 an hour, 7.5t £13.00—£15.00, Class 2 £16.00—£20.00 and Class 1 £18.00—£24.00. Nights, weekends and bank holidays usually pay more, and ADR or HIAB work carries its own premium.
Yes, for any commercial driving above 3.5 tonnes. You need 35 hours of periodic training every five years to keep it valid. Since the rules split, National Driver CPC covers UK-only driving while International Driver CPC is needed if you drive commercially into Europe.
