Might be an idea to look at the 'recent Suttons thread on the main board. Around Widnes there’s a lot of tanker jobs paying £9-9.50 mark, which doesn’t suggest a premium to me. Other areas might be different of course.
Is there demand? Well all our drivers are ADR trained, but I would rather take on the right driver without an ADR, than the wrong one with an ADR. We pay for the ADR.
