Looking to get your HGV Licence?
Call Free: 0333 772 3729A Category C+E licence, also known as an HGV Class 1 licence (or Articulated), allows drivers to operate vehicles with a combined weight exceeding 7.5 tonnes, comprising a cab unit and a separate trailer. This is the highest class of licence for heavy goods vehicles in the UK.
Â
These vehicles are characterised by their articulated design, meaning the tractor unit and trailer are connected but can pivot independently, allowing greater flexibility in manoeuvring.
Â
This licence is essential for those looking to drive long-haul freight vehicles, tankers, or other articulated lorries in industries like logistics, haulage, and supply chain management. It often leads to access to higher-paying roles due to the additional skill and responsibility required to manage larger, articulated loads.
If you already have a Category C/Class 2 licence, you will only need to attend a 5 day practical-only training course with a DVSA test at the end in order to upgrade to the Category C+E/Class 1. Fill in our enquiry form to upgrade your licence today!
