7.5 or HGV 2 Driver

What the job actually involves

You'd be:

  • Driving a 7.5-tonne lorry (not a standard van)
  • Working in a 2-person team (so you'll have a helper with you)
  • Delivering heavy furniture, appliances, and electrical goods into homes
  • Doing multiple stops per day (multi-drop)
  • Physically lifting and carrying bulky items into customer properties
  • Doing vehicle checks, paperwork, and tachograph compliance

What you need

  • UK C1 licence (allows 7.5t vehicles)
  • Driver CPC (mandatory for professional driving)
  • Digital tachograph card
  • Good fitness (this is physically demanding work)
  • Customer service mindset

Hours & pay structure

  • 48 hours per week
  • Likely early starts
  • Weekly bonus + overtime

Reality of the job (important)

Pros:

  • Stable work (home delivery demand is strong)
  • No long-haul nights away
  • Team-based (you're not alone on the road all day)
  • Overtime can boost pay significantly

This job suits you if you:

  • Don't mind physical labour
  • Prefer being out and about rather than sitting in a warehouse or office
  • Are comfortable dealing with customers face-to-face all day
  • Want steady hours with overtime opportunities
