The bin men

Hi Folks,
Just wondering what license you need to drive one of the bin lorries? I heard the pay and hours are quite good?

Thanks

For 99+% yes but we have a couple of 7.5 tonne bin trucks near me = C1 licence

Sorry for the ignorance. What’s wrong with having a stobart picture?

Better than having no picture at all I guess! Whats wrong with them?

Any idea what sort of wage the bin lorry drivers are on?

Hi sprouty welcome to the forum I am currently driving bin lorries, skip wagons and a load more council vehicles inc the odd 7.5 tonne veh but they don’t have many the pay is around the 18,000 pa mark but I suppose it depends on your area
By the way nice pic I would love to drive for them but aint got my ce as yet
Best of luck anyway
