What is an LGV?
LGV, short for Large Goods Vehicle, is a term used in the UK to refer to vehicles over 3.5 tonnes that are primarily used for transporting goods. This includes vehicles that are often called HGVs (Heavy Goods Vehicles), with both terms typically used interchangeably. Whether you’re aiming to drive articulated lorries, rigid vehicles, or box trucks, a proper LGV licence ensures you’re legally qualified to operate these large vehicles safely on the road.
What Vehicles Can I Drive with an LGV Licence?
At Commercial Transport Training in Oxford, we provide training for various LGV licence categories, including:
- Category C (Class 2) – This licence allows you to drive large rigid vehicles over 7.5 tonnes. Rigid vehicles are often used for short-haul delivery routes and local goods distribution.
- Category C+E (Class 1) – This licence enables you to operate articulated lorries or large vehicles with trailers, which are often used for long-haul and international transport. A Class 1 licence opens doors to higher-paying driving opportunities and flexibility in the logistics industry.
Our trainers will guide you through the specifics of each licence category, ensuring you know exactly which vehicle type your training applies to and what skills you’ll need to develop for safe driving.
