some firms do self employed (so you need a reliable van of your own) otherwise they usually have an age restriction..

the other option i did was motorcycle work, but the life expectancy in london is 3 weeks on average... not job length, but actual life expectancy..

up to you but think hard...

Slam,

Is there any firms in the North West who offer 'support' etc for passing the HGV license?

I'm 25 now & I've wanted to do this for a while, but can't afford the £1-2k outlay.

Cheers,

Chris
