Fed up with pallet work on Class C so i have looked around.
Ive been offered a tipper tramper job paying £500 a week plus £100 for nights out. After 6 months goes upto £575 a week plus £100
Is this good or just an average wage.
Plus side company pays £575 x 52 weeks so no need to accumulate holiday.

So 600 topline??
Yes for 6 months then goes up to 675
Take it. Sounds ok to me
Hmmmm 
Who’s it for, you might get a heads up. Tipper tramping firms tend to be better. I day tend to be, some of the Clwyd subbies are nutters but G.Webbs seem very steady.
Is that take home ?
No before tax
In comparison LTD agency Class C drivers on my present pallet work are pulling £740 a week for 60 hours

In that case it’s very, very close to what London Tipper firms pay for max. hours, hard running, day work. (home every day, 6 - 7am starts, and 4 - 7pm finishes + every other Saturday)
But considering it’s probably further away from London and longer runs I would say adequate for that kind of work.
Not great, but not too bad either…
On what terms do they offer this “company pays 575x52” ? They offer you to drive as PAYE or as SE or as Ltd ?
Are they “blue with dark faded red” colored?
No weekend work Midlands based. A lot of work is based around the country. Company has 30 motors including artics. Colours blue and red and PAYE
Ok, got the idea… - I’m no expert, but I would say decent-adequate and probably swapped that for my one if offered. 
So 5 days at £100 basic… You do a 15 and your basically on £6.66 (correct me if I’m wrong) can stick day rates right up your ■■■!!

It’s tipper work - you moron… they ain’t doing 15h… 
Max 13h, average 10h or less
But if your tramping its normally hourly pay so you max your hours as you know your not going home.

Max 13h, average 10h
So tippers/tramping… You never do a 15■■ Give your head a bang you daft khunt
I don’t do tramping, but I’ ve never met a tipper driver doing 15h shifts… sorry if I’m badly wrong - maybe I should have said 90% don’t do…, maybe some member of this forum will volunteer to come out on here and confirm that he is tipper driver and does 15h shifts to confirm your statement…?
I think even most artic tipper drivers don’t do that… (split rest etc doesn’t count )
Although tramping in small tipper cab in laybys is not the best job either…

Do you actually do bulk work??
I do tipper work (in company that also do Class 2 tramping in those, but not me), that’s about all you should know about me… although even that might be too much…
Don’t forget that author is inquiring about Class 2 tipper work…
If i can i will max the hours out if im tramping. Thats why you see tippers racing to the weighbridge before they close so you can tip and then drive off for a few more hours to the next job if possible instead of parking up at 5pm.
