HGV/LGV DRIVER TRAINING
Our customers say
HGV/LGV Driver Training
LGV (Large Goods Vehicle) drivers, also known as HGV drivers, transport goods and materials across the UK and abroad, including items like food and fuel.
Currently, there’s a high demand for more LGV drivers because many are retiring or leaving the industry. The average age of lorry drivers is 53, and nearly 4,000 drivers retire each year. It’s estimated that we need 80,000 to 100,000 more drivers to meet the demand.
At TL Training, we’ve provided top-quality HGV/LGV training since 2015. We offer training for both Class 2 (Category C) and Class 1 (Category C+E) licences, with various packages to suit different budgets and needs for individuals and businesses alike
CLASS 1 / CATEGORY C+E (from a car license)
Our all-inclusive package streamlines the process, allowing you to skip the Class 2 (Category C) test and head straight for Class 1 (Category C+E). We handle the driver’s medical, provisional license, theory, Driver CPC, 32 hours of training, and DVSA testing (3a and 3b). With your Class 1 (C+E) license, you’re set for the biggest logistics vehicles, up to 44 tonnes, ideal for national and long-distance deliveries.
