Frequently Asked Questions
Are there many ADR driver positions?
Yes, there is a growing number of ADR driver positions – most often as a result of new driver shortages, veteran ADR drivers are finding there isn’t always a new cohort to pass their job onto.
This is beneficial, however, as it means our learners can really do their research and find the best company and positions that suit them – often at a higher rate than previous drivers have been able to access!
To get started though, you’ll need to complete ADR training Birmingham-wide and get your licence!
To book or ask any remaining questions, call or email us today at contact@ADRtrainingnetwork.com – our helpful team are on hand to help and book you in if you choose to go ahead!
Can I start ADR training in Birmingham?
Absolutely – as long as you have a Cat B car licence (automatic or manual) and are 18!
You don’t even need previous HGV/LGV experience – we can arrange all of that for you.
Even better, you can choose which site is best for you, either our city centre location, our site in West Bromwich, or Wolverhampton, whichever is easiest for you and your family.
To get started with ADR training today, choose your favoured location and reach out to our expert training coordinators today – you can call us for a chat or fill out our enquiry form at your soonest convenience.
If I complete ADR training in Birmingham, will it be valid across the world?
While you will need to check for every country in the world, drivers who have completed ADR training can drive across Birmingham, the West Midlands, and beyond into Europe!
This means, if you are keen to see a bit more of the world, ADR driving is an excellent way to do so – giving you lots of stamps on your passport.
You’ll be earning while you see the sights too, so travelling could be very cost-effective if you combine it cleverly with ADR driving.
To see how you could plan routes through Europe, check out our HGV route planning blog or call us. Our advisors are here to help you decide what is best for you so feel free to ask them any nagging questions.
What do ADR drivers carry?
As an ADR driver, you could be responsible for a range of goods or dangerous substances, including:
- Explosives
- Gases
- Flammable liquids and solids
- Oxidising or corrosive substances
- Toxic and infectious substances
- Radioactive materials
- Miscellaneous goods – like batteries and dry ice
But you will receive comprehensive training on handling any and all of these goods before you are expected to go near them – so don’t worry!
For more information about any part of your ADR training, fill in our enquiry form or email us at contact@ADRtrainingnetwork.com and we’ll be in touch to answer your questions as quickly as possible!
What does ADR stand for?
ADR is a common abbreviation in logistics but it can be confusing – a more recognisable name might be ‘dangerous goods’ driver!
ADR actually stands for the French ‘Accord Dangereux Routier’ which relates to the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road – a set of legal compliances and standards that allow for potentially dangerous items to be transported safely by road across Europe.
These regulations, and how to comply with them, will be an integral part of your ADR training in Birmingham and while we may be biased, we think it’s incredibly interesting!
To find out what else your studies might include, email us at contact@ADRtrainingnetwork.com or fill in our enquiry form and we’ll be in touch.
How long will ADR training take?
Depending on how experienced you are and what driving qualifications you already hold, ADR training in Birmingham could take anything from a fortnight to a few months.
When you ring to get started, our team will ask about your previous driving jobs and qualifications and should then be able to give you a rough idea of how long it could take to get you into your dream ADR job.
It should be noted, however, that your confidence and how quickly you grasp the skills of ADR driving will also impact your qualification time.
To get an idea and start the ball rolling, call us for a chat or fill in our enquiry form – we’ll get you out on the road in no time!
