Enquiries are welcome from Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire and Berkshire; these are customer areas, not a claim that a course is held in every county. Ask GS about ADR availability.

Which ADR classes are relevant to you?

Hazard-class names help describe your load. They do not mean every class module or exam is included in each listed fixed-price package. Confirm the goods, packages or tanks, required modules, classroom venue, dates and exam inclusions with GS before payment.

Standard class groups

• Class 2: Gases

  

  

  

• Class 3: Flammable liquids

  

• Class 4: Flammable solids and related hazards

  

  

  

• Class 5: Oxidising substances and organic peroxides

  

  

• Class 6: Toxic and infectious substances

  

  

• Class 8: Corrosive substances

  

• Class 9: Miscellaneous dangerous goods

  

These are examples of ADR transport hazard labels, not chemical supply-label pictograms. Classes with different hazards have separate label models. Illustrations are for recognition only: use the current ADR requirements and the goods' classification to determine the correct package labels and vehicle placards.

Standard transport-label illustrations are reproduced from ERICards' ADR danger-label reference.

Specialist classes — on request

• Class 1: Explosives
• Class 7: Radioactive material

Explosives and radioactive materials require specialist class training; Classes 1 and 7 are not included in the listed fixed-price packages. Ask GS whether the relevant module can be arranged and request a separate written quote before booking.

Check UK government ADR course guidance for the class categories.

What to check before booking ADR training

The fixed-price options are a starting point; the right training depends on the dangerous goods and how you will carry them.

1. Describe your load: Tell GS the goods classes, whether you carry packages or use a tank, and whether you already hold a valid ADR card.
2. Get written course details: Ask which modules, exams and materials the price covers, plus the actual classroom venue, dates and booking terms.
3. Pay GS after confirmation: GS handles customer payment once you have checked the written offer. Do not assume specialist Classes 1 or 7 are included in a fixed-price route.

For dangerous-goods HGV driving as the main part of your job, GOV.UK also requires the relevant HGV qualification and Driver CPC. Attending ADR training alone is not an HGV driving entitlement.

ADR is separate from your HGV licence and Driver CPC

ADR training is not an HGV driving entitlement and does not automatically provide Driver CPC. Surrey classroom options include Core + Packages, Core + Packages + Tanks and refresher routes; confirm the modules, exact venue, examination arrangements and booking terms for the course you need.

Ask separately about specialist Classes 1 or 7 rather than assuming every class is included. This guidance describes classroom routes and does not represent an online ADR training service.
