My mate works for a company that hire vans and pick ups,and goes all'over the country collecting and delivering, Inhave the advantage of full'pcv entitlement, 7.5 wagon entitlement, and provisional HGV. A while ago he told me the company were looking for drivers with HGV entitlement, as they rent tractor units and 10 tonners. If they are still looking, they would pay for my HGV training, which should be pretty similar to the PCV driving, just different weight and loading to think about.

Might be worth giving Thomas a shout now he's a trucker, I'm sure he could give you some pointers after just passing his HGV and starting his new career

I only have provisional HGV Jeff, and wouldn't want to do that full time either, apart from local or day shift work. Plus the fact it would cost me circa £2k to get my licence

Been in contact with my mate from hire company, no good , minimum wage
