Train with Sheffield’s Leading Training Provider

Sheffield is a prime hub for aspiring HGV drivers, with bustling areas such as Wigan, Bolton, Bury, Rochdale, Oldham, Salford, Stockport, Tameside, and Trafford. At 123HGV, located in the heart of Sheffield and easily accessible via the M60, we pride ourselves on being at the forefront of HGV training in Sheffield. Whether you’re aiming for a Class 1 (Category C+E) licence to drive articulated lorries or a Class 2 (Category C) licence for rigid vehicles, our comprehensive training programmes are designed to help you succeed in Sheffield’s transport and logistics sector.

What’s the Difference Between a Class 1 (Category C+E) Licence and a Class 2 (Category C) Licence?

Understanding the difference between these two licences is crucial for any aspiring HGV driver. A Class 1 licence allows you to drive Category C+E vehicles—articulated lorries with a combined weight of up to 44 tonnes. In contrast, a Class 2 licence enables you to operate rigid vehicles over 7.5 tonnes, with a trailer weight limit of up to 750kg.

Can I Skip Class 2 and Go Straight to Class 1?

Yes, you can! Thanks to regulatory changes introduced in November 2021, drivers can now bypass the Class 2 licence and proceed directly to the Class 1 licence. Our direct access training at 123HGV has been incredibly popular, offering you the fastest route to becoming a Class 1 driver.
