Ask bigger companies mate a lot of smaller firms won’t pay the insurance and I’ve been driving a year now but only advice I’ll give is go onto multi drop don’t just go into tramping multi drop you’re going to have to get into between 10/20 drops a day And you learn to reverse and manoeuvre so quick

Check out Eddie Stobart as I know they take drivers with little or no experience. That’s not a joke by the way before all the old sweats jump on this post and start with the bridge thing.

Do you have cpc? I don't think you need it in the forces do you? You'll need it for commercial.

The same problem I had when I came out of the forces back in 86, got myself on with a right cowboy firm, but once you tell them you're working for xx they'll take you seriously, I only done 6 weeks with the cowboys and been fully employed since! So take absolutely anything to get your face seen!!
Re: Moving to leeds area want to use my licence I've tried so many companies they say you need experience try agency's
Take lowest paid work or worst job around for few weeks and you'll get experience.

I'm a new pass and they are giving me and a few others a chance, only way to get experience. Only down side is hauling chicken, turkey and pig guts/carcasses about

Do a refresher course, and then they will know you are serious. Ex REME VM it worked for me.
Re: Moving to leeds area want to use my licence I've tried so many companies they say you need experience try agency's
When I left the Army I was the same, but when I told them I had no experience, they just said it goes on how long you have held the licence for, so as long as they are willing to give you some training you will be fine
Re: Moving to leeds area want to use my licence I've tried so many companies they say you need experience try agency's
Just tell em you've got 2 years experience, who are they to what you've been doing, get your mate. A owner driver to give you a reference

Drivers Plus are a great agency based in Cleckheaton. I used them full time now part time. Regular work, no pay problems and if a job got cancelled they’d make sure you’re priority for the next one. Friendly office staff too

If you want to be tramping then broaden your area.
Well worth giving Owens a call they have a base in Carrington as they take on newbies.

never thought of acas tbh. Was going to the statutory demand route but changes in the law because of covid now means it'll cost me over £2k to push it forward. Will give acas a go, thanks.

Many blue chip companies will take you on and have an experienced driver sit next to you for a week or so. It’s a foot in the door.
