Thats good but the boys at your local vosa station dont hand out o licences.

 

Dont get me wrong, going bigger on your chip truck is a good idea, but getting and running an o licence will cost you both in time and money.

 

Did they tell you what fees are involved?

You also need to prove to the authorities via bank statements you have had XXXX amount in your bank account for so long prior to recieving the o licenece to.

 

To be honest if I was going down the O licence and operating centre route I would agree with Peter and go for something bigger than 7.5tonner.

i used + drove a long wheelbase merc 7.5, swb iveco 7.5, and an 18tonner iveco tipper with hiab, the merc was rubbish, the swb iveco was great, fill the box to the roof and it still drove well, nice trucks to drive and very manourevable. the 18tonner was great, normally the groundy would drive the 7.5 iveco for chip, and id have the hiab for cord, but occasionally we'd put a half length box on the hiab, chip on then load cord on the back with the grab, a great setup especially for distance work!
