I have been doing class 2 container work for 4 years previously and am now doing Night work on Felixstowe port as a Tug driver.
I would like to get back on to days as nights are killing me with the lack of sleep from neighbours etc.
My question is if I take my Class 1 can I get anything around £500 take home a week working days with no more then 2 nights away ?
Just trying to work my finances out and to see if it’s worth it. I really want to get back onto days but I need £500ish in my pocket. I have no problem working at 3am if I’m back by 5-6pm I have done all that before. It would jut be nice to be home and work days. Is it possible ? Do class 1 jobs exist that let you get home 2-3 nights a week ?
Any help appreciated thanks
Should be achievable depending on hours worked and rate obviously.
Wincanton are looking for drivers…Days/nights/tramping…Out of felixstowe…Not sure about the wages though.Might be worth a ring…
Yes there always seems to be a lot of container work about and too be honest I don’t mind it. Thanks I will have a word around
My eldest lad is a tug driver at F’stowe dks, doing the ferries. he has been there for a few years now and on the old contract, are you on the old or the new one?
Karl king at Ipswich might be worth a shot, I used to end up back there a couple of nights a week, and their money was around what you’re looking for.

New Contract working on the Rail side on Agency work. No option to do days which is a pain
Karl King, people seem to keep going back there so I guess they can’t be bad, thanks
