This company is fantastic. I can not thank them all enough for helping me pass my class 2. I gave them a call to have a chat and find out what I would need to do to obtain my class 2 license and from the start I felt very comfortable. Very responsive to my emails, any issues or help I needed they where there for me and helped me with everything along the way.
I had my assessment day and was told I'd need 18 hours driving. They accommodated me on the days I was free And helped me pass my reverse test, CPC and practical test in 3 days. I passed all my tests first time with these guys and that's down to how they train you and the support they give. Not only this but also passed my theory's in 1 day too thanks to their Online training they provided for me. Dave my instructor was outstanding and I can not thank him enough for the help he gave me during my 3 days of training.
He is straight to the point and helped me with everything I needed, also a wonderful man too, we had some good chats while driving around. He made me feel at ease while driving and pointed out anything I needed help with along the way. All the people at this company are very friendly and easy to talk to, brilliant from start to finish. Again I can not thank them enough for everything they have done for me and would highly recommend these guys for anyone looking to get into HGV driving! Thanks Jack

Can't thank Stockport HGV enough! I had a bad time at another company and wasn't getting the required training and couldn't understand why I kept failing the practical test! One week with Derek and Stockport HGV and I've got my pass certificate! Highly recommended to anyone looking to do class 1 or 2!

Stockport HGV I want to thank you for helping me pass all my tests and finally get where I wanted to be. Communication was amazing thanks to Jane and kay great team. The gents in the yard great guys always smiling evan on the rainy days. But massive thank you to Derek for putting up with me. Amazing instructor with lots off experience had some good laughs on the road and learnt me how to be a good hgv driver.

Stockport HGV is the place to go! I passed my class2 with these guys some time ago and most recently wanted to try my luck at class1! The service is fantastic. Everything was plain sailing for me. The training is superb. I passed my class 1 with only 2minors! I'm so happy. Thank you to the Stockport HGV team I am now able to play in the BIG TRUCKS!

Highly recommended. I took a two hour assessment drive, followed by Theory and Hazard Perception online training and then a three day course including reverse test practical test. All the training was carried out with utmost professionalism, the booking and administration of tests were carried out by the Company with no problems, communication was excellent throughout. Also, all COVID secure.
The instructors are first class, with a relaxed, informal approach and a superb coaching style - I would describe my instructor as an 'enter-trainer', conveying his instructions and points in a light-hearted but memorable way. Don't expect it to be a simple job to pass your class 2, but if you follow the instructions and approach your learning with an open mind, you have a great chance with these guys. My thanks especially to Kay, Matt, Eddie and Jane who looked after me incredibly well.

Just passed my class 2 today with Stockport HGV. I would recommend them to anyone. From the start they were very professional and friendly from the first meeting and assessment. Thanks Eddy and Kay Update Tried to do my class 1 with Stockport HGV. Phoned emailed left messages unfortunately never bothered to reply to any of them. Shame really turned out to be a blessing in disguises though. Passed my test with Enterprise instead.
They have a better set up. Their facility is better and had excellent communication throughout. I would definitely recommend Enterprise over Stockport HGV. I understand they are very busy at the moment but a simple reply isn't that hard is it.

Absolutely loved my experience with this company. I would highly recommend. All the staff are so approachable and helpful beyond words, any question or anything was answered to put my mind at ease throughout the whole process of achieving my class 2 licence. yes that's right achieving! Passed 1st time and it was down to the high level of teaching and support over the 3 days of training prior to the test on the final day. Kay the owner was amazing with everything down to emailing to keep me up to date with what's available for the assessment, the 3 days training, the cpc module 4 etc and getting me in so soon after the lockdown release. they go above and beyond and for that so grateful Graham was my trainer and he got me to a pass standard within 18 hours training so quick, he knew exactly what I was finding difficult and he worked on those aspects to the standard to achieve the licence at the end for me. Always supportive, always cool calm and collected Thank you so much guys You helped me achieve something I have for the rest of my life Matt rigby ( HGV CLASS 2 )
