3.5‑tonne Tipper + Tail Lift
To hire and drive a 3.5‑tonne Tipper + Tail Lift from ND Brown Ltd, you only need a Category B (car) driving licence. A CPC is only if you’re using the vehicle professionally/commercially on public roads.
Tippers at 7.2 or 7.5 tonnes
A C1 licence allows you to drive vehicles between 3.5 tonnes and 7.5 tonnes, which includes ND Brown’s 7.2t and 7.5t tipper vehicles.
Tippers over 7.5 tonnes (12t, 18t, 26t, 32t)
For ND Brown’s heavier fleet — such as 12, 18, 26, and 32‑tonne tippers — you need a Category C (Class 2) licence, which allows you to drive rigid HGVs over 7.5 tonnes up to 32 tonnes.
Commercial use
If you are hiring these vehicles for professional/commercial use, you must also hold a valid Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence).
When hiring a commercial vehicle from ND Brown, operators are responsible for providing their own insurance cover. This is standard across the commercial transport industry, where owner‑operators must secure and maintain their own commercial vehicle insurance to legally operate hired trucks and equipment.
This insurance must include appropriate levels of:
Commercial vehicle (auto) liability
Physical damage cover for the hired vehicle
Any additional insurance required for the operator’s business activities
The hirer is to supply comprehensive insurance as per company conditions of hire – ‘Plant Insurance’ is required for trailer mounted and static hot boxes
Because ND Brown provides the vehicle but does not insure your operation, you must have valid, active insurance in place before the hire period begins.
It is the hirer’s responsibility to check for DVS PSS certification and to inform ND Brown Limited if a hired vehicle over 12T GVM is to enter the London LEZ zone.
Vehicles over 12T GVM operating in the London LEZ Zone will be subject to an additional levy of £15 per week for DVS PSS additional safety equipment.
Our fines and penalty charge administration fee is £35.00 per item.
