Companies willing to take on a new driver in Teesside

Hi all,

I passed my class 1 test a few weeks ago and wondered if anyone in the area knew of any companies that would give a newly passed driver a chance.

I’ve been driving class 2 for 8 years and have a full ADR with experience of fridges, flat beds, curtainsiders and tanks (all be it a rigid one)

I know I’m going to hit the whole 2 years experience wall, but surely someone would give me a shot?

Cheers

Dave

Congrats on passing…Hargreaves,bulk tippers used to take on newly qualified drivers up in esh winning and I also understand reed boardall down in boroughbridge take new drivers(fridges),I’d ring every bugger if I was you though…good luck.

Wards in Middlesborough?

Isotank in redcar

Nicholson’s Transport Billingham might give you a start as they run class 2 and ADR work so might be able to ease you into class one slowly.

Wards

Reed Bordalls - just don’t hit owt!

Thanks guys I’ll make some calls, I spent 2 years at Nicholsons…enough said!!

Prestons of Potto will give a new driver a start now, never used to be the case but I know 2 on there who have just passed their test and got a start within the last 6 months

FVS also come under the prestons banner but even though the yard is still in Stockton its all ran from Potto now so there all in the same office
