Anything with a Hiab should really have outriggers IMO.  Lifting a tonne of material a few feet away from the vehicle - well, you know the physics.

r1 and vamps have a hiab cert and full cpc so that would not be a problem but parking at the moment is something I don't want to pay out for also if I use a 7.5 or bigger think I would need a op licence as well as a storage yard if I stick to a transit size truck running cost are much better road tax insurance parking less of a problem etc etc

Firstly driver CPC and operator CPC are two totally different things. Secondly, given Ops location, I would consider upgrading to class1 and looking to container work :-\

As suggested, alot of agency work around that there Lundun :y

And quite lucrative it was just working weekends / holidays delivering to Sainsburys, in addition to my full time Job......... :y :y
