HGV Training in Sussex – FAQs

How long to get an HGV licence? Allow ~20 hours theory study. After you pass theory, practical typically starts in ~3 weeks, then your training and tests follow (subject to DVSA availability).

Automatic or manual? Both available. Most modern fleets are automatic, which is ideal for the test and employability.
