New job

After some time on agency and the last 8 months being self employed and always driving someone else’s lorry, I start my new permanent full time class 1 job next Monday with a truck I can actually call mine!! It’s all I’ve ever wanted and I’m so pleased! Please can you all tell me what sort of things I need to get to keep/have in the cab. I will be having nights out although not every night, thanks :slight_smile:

Hi and congratulations. If you look on the New and Wannabe drivers section everything is listed that you could ever need.
Good luck to you in your career.
All my driving was done in Europe except for the last 3.5 years where I have been driving in Scotland. I enjoyed it but its just a mindset. I have never driven long distance in the UK but have been to almost every country in Europe.

nice 1 well done,congratulations :smiley:

Well done and very best of luck.

Well done on the getting the job :slight_smile:

Its so much better tramping with an allocated truck as you can sort it out the way you want and also leave your gear in it on your days off.

Nice one :slight_smile:

What and who do we need to look out for ?

Toilet roll.
