LGV Training Courses
Since 1959, we have been providing LGV training. We provide quality training coupled with practical advice due to our long service in the haulage training industry.
Our LGV driver training is delivered by DVSA registered instructors using industry-standard vehicles. The practical training is carried out in the Grimsby and Cleethorpes area, we use the Grimsby test centre as this is the nearest LGV test centre to us.
Our instructors have extensive knowledge of the test routes used by the examiners; candidates are taken on these routes during their driver training to familiarise themselves with the routes.
We are DVSA registered for the 3a (reverse/trailer change) training and testing, also suitable for a caravan/horsebox.
Available Course Programs
All our practical driving courses are ONE TO ONE tuition and are tailored to meet the needs of each individual. We provide LGV training for the following categories of vehicles:
Category C – (Class 2 – rigid vehicle over 7.5 ton)
Category C+E – (Class 1 – Articulated vehicles)
What do I need to do?
Before your Category C practical training can take place, you must undertake a medical examination, apply for your provisional licence and pass your theory tests. Failure to achieve these items will mean that your practical driver training cannot take place.
For information regarding Driver CPC requirements please Contact Us.
We can arrange all of this for you; please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss your HGV training requirements.
