About The 7.5 Tonne Box Truck
The 7.5t box van is a very popular vehicle in the world of transportation and deliveries. It offers an enviable cargo capacity, which makes it the go-to choice for all kinds of jobs. Some of the most popular brands include Iveco Eurocargo, Mercedes-Benz Atego, DAF LF, the Renault D range and many others.
Licence Requirements
The 7.5t box van requires more than your regular car licence. The exact licence you’ll need for a 7.5-tonne lorry hire depends on your transport purpose. As far as personal purposes go, you’ll need a C1 licence to drive this truck. The good news is that if you passed your tests before 1997, you automatically have a C1 entitlement on your licence.
As a commercial driver, however, you’ll need an operator’s licence and the Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence). Those requirements are quite fair if we take into consideration the perks of this box van.
Companies in the construction and landscaping industries may prefer our 7.5-tonne tipper truck, which facilitates the unloading of loose material with its tipping mechanism. You’ll see fantastic tipper truck deals if you click here.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why Should I Choose A Box Truck Over A Curtain Sider?
You should choose a box truck over a curtain sider because of safety and security. A box truck has a sturdy, fully enclosed body that makes it tough for anyone to sneak in and grab the items in it. It also provides better stability, which is needed for some cargo types and transport endeavours, and is easier to customise.
Is A 7.5-Tonne Box Truck More Expensive Than A 7.5-Tonne Curtain Side Lorry?
No, a 7.5-tonne box truck is not more expensive than a 7.5-tonne curtain-side lorry. These vehicles have similar prices, and it all comes down to the features and the maker. Check out SDVH’s curtain-sider lorry hire deals for various great benefits at a reasonable price. You’ll be getting an efficient cargo vehicle with the convenience of easy cargo access.
Are There Different Licence Requirements For 7.5t Box And 18t Box Trucks?
Yes, there are different licence requirements for 7.5t box and 18t box trucks. You can drive a 7.5t box truck with a C1 entitlement on your licence, but you need a category C licence to drive an 18t box truck. Additionally, you’ll need a valid operator’s licence to drive both of these vehicles for commercial purposes.
