HGV Training in Whitstable
Family-run since 2011. Kent's biggest HGV school.
One-to-one Class 1, Class 2, C1 and PCV training for Whitstable and Herne Bay learners at our Sittingbourne centre, along the Thanet Way and M2, with your test at Gillingham.
HGV training for Whitstable and Herne Bay
From the coast to your HGV licence.
Learn2Pass trains learners from Whitstable, Tankerton, Chestfield and Herne Bay at our centre at Sittingbourne Logistics Park. It is a straight run west on the A299 Thanet Way, onto the M2 at Brenley Corner and up the A249: about 17 miles from Whitstable and 22 from Herne Bay, usually 30 to 35 minutes. Every lesson is one-to-one in our own full-size trucks, coaches and minibuses with a DVSA-approved instructor, and your practical test is at the Gillingham DVSA test centre. We are family-run, training Kent drivers since 2011.

- 1 to 1Start to finish
Thanet Way, M2, done
From Whitstable or Herne Bay, follow the A299 west to the M2, leave at junction 5 and head north on the A249 to Swale Way. It is around 30 minutes from Whitstable and 35 from Herne Bay outside rush hour, with free parking when you arrive.
Start times that work for the coast
Training days usually start at 6am or 10am, with around four hours of one-to-one driving. The 10am start suits anyone who would rather miss the early traffic.
All-in prices
Licence course prices include VAT and both DVSA tests, and every course has our Price Match Guarantee. Snap Finance is available if you would rather spread the cost, subject to status.
Work along the coast and beyond
Coastal towns need drivers for food and parcel delivery, building supplies and the coach and bus trade, and the A299 links you to distribution work around Canterbury and Swale. After you pass, we introduce you to employers across Kent.
Help with every step
We explain the D4 medical, the D2 provisional form and the theory and hazard perception tests, and help you book them in the right order so your training dates are not held up.
Bus and coach as well as lorries
We train for PCV bus and coach (Category D) in an automatic coach, and D1 minibus. Both are worth a look on the coast, where school, community and holiday transport all need drivers.
How our Whitstable HGV training works
We start by confirming which licence fits the work you want and your all-in price. Then we help you through the medical, provisional entitlement and theory tests. Your one-to-one training runs over consecutive days at our Sittingbourne centre, with your practical test at Gillingham at the end. Whitstable and Herne Bay learners usually drive in along the Thanet Way in 30 to 35 minutes.
