Parramatta has 3 providers offering the HR licence, often searched for as a truck licence, with courses typically completed in one day. This covers Francis Driving School in Chipping Norton, and Kool Driving School and Wise Driving School, both based in Yennora.
The HR truck licence allows drivers to operate heavy rigid vehicles with more than two axles, including some rigid trucks fitted with a trailer. It suits existing car licence holders moving into truck driving, including tradies, delivery drivers and those entering freight or logistics work.
Courses are delivered as Heavy Vehicle Competency Based Assessment (HVCBA), run by Service NSW-approved assessors under Transport for NSW rules rather than a traditional test. The licence forms part of your standard NSW driver licence rather than a separate high risk work licence, so it renews with your regular licence rather than on its own cycle.
Frequently asked questions
- How much does an HR licence course cost in Parramatta?
- Pricing is not listed for these 3 providers and varies by provider. Contact Francis Driving School, Kool Driving School or Wise Driving School directly for a quote based on your current licence and experience.
- How long does the HR truck licence course take?
- The typical course length among Parramatta-area providers is one day, run as a Heavy Vehicle Competency Based Assessment (HVCBA) combining practical driving and assessment on the day.
- Does the HR licence need to be renewed separately?
- No. The HR licence is a vehicle class added to your standard NSW driver licence rather than a separate high risk work licence, so it renews automatically with your regular driver licence through Service NSW.
- Is the course done online or in person?
- HVCBA assessment for an HR licence is a practical, in-person process involving on-road driving assessment. Any theory components, if offered, vary by provider, so check directly with the provider you choose.
