Driving HGV or LGV jobs range from driving Box trailers to supermarkets and industrial trading estates to Car transporters that deliver vehicles of all shapes and sizes to motor dealers. We have had employment opportunities for driving Bulk tankers for gases, petrochemicals, powders and many types of liquids. Some hgv work involves driving Multi-drop vehicles to city centres and Curtainsiders that transport bags or boxes on pallets. HGV can also include Driving tippers doing quarry deliveries or dustbin collection, brick and skips lorries. HGV jobs generally have very flexible working hours. It is usually up to the HGV driver to work within a timetable that allows them to choose when they drive and when they rest. Many drivers prefer working on their own but some HGV jobs demand a drivers mate. Some HGV vacancies are part time or contract work.
