Re: Earnings per Year

I've thought about doing my HGV but i doubt i'd get work without any experience.Am i right?



...I can drive well and have drove all over UK and rode my motorbikes all over Europe but this was for my own pleasure not business.
I also have decent mechanical knowledge so the basic checks wouldn't be a problem.

You could go for Class 2 and do that for a bit - if the company has HGVs too they may put you in for the test after you've been there a while - they did for my other half (saying that he does Arctics about once a month if that)

That's what i meant...go for my class 2 but will anyone give me a job driving a class 2.Obviously i would go for my HGV 1 afterwards providing the prospects are there to be able to gain employment.

Re: Earnings per Year

trust me.. no experience really makes no difference.

just go on the agency for a bit before taking a full time job. you get to drive a lot of different trucks and the work is pretty varied...

as for 'i can drive well'... hehehe.... wait till the instructor gets hold of you... you will get to the point of feeling completely crap.... it isn't as easy as it looks... its just practice that mean that me and robsta make it look easy.

i have seen it too many times... cocky new driver usually has a crunch in the first week and gets stuck somewhere narrow in the first month.....

Re: Earnings per Year

I know what you mean by the 'drive quite well' thing,it's all down to getting used to the size of vehicle you drive day in day out i guess.
What i meant there was that i am a decent confident driver,not in a big truck but in a car/van(daily driver in my van) and also on the bikes.

I shall look further into it and see what happens guys.

Re: Earnings per Year

The big companies like the one I work for TNT take on new drivers mate.
I passed my test on a tuesday, by the next monday I was driving for morrisons. Took home £600 my first week in work.
But me and slam are in the HGV capital of the country. It's central to everywhere so it's where most hubs are, therefore more drivers required, therefore more money.

£600 for a driver is good money

so how many time do we hear this then rob.... oh driving them things can't be hard.....

cue the simpsons... truckmaster 3000 episode....

so driving summat 8 feet wide, 15.5 feet high, 18 metres long, weighs in at 44 tonnes which bends at one end and still has to fit down country lanes is easy....

oh yes.... thats why the national pass rate for c+e first time is 35%.... most people fail it at least once....
