Our mission

Take a deep dive into all things 2 Start, and find out why we are the premier driver & logistics training provider in the South!

Here at 2 Start Training, our mission is to provide the highest quality and standard of training available on the market. We also strive towards ensuring our students have the most comfortable and enjoyable training experience possible, from the great instructors we hire to our nearly-new fleet of training vehicles, the likes of which come with automatic gearboxes and air-conditioned cabs.

We looked across the industry and noticed a poor standard for training facilities and equipment, with the common sight of 10+ year old vehicles on show. We have ensured there is a constant investment into our facilities and courses, ensuring our students receive the best of the best training experience.

When choosing your training company, it’s important to have a look at what you’re going to be training in. A beaten up old truck that has driven half way around the world is not going to make your life any easier. It has almost become a standard that training companies would use old vehicles for driver training, some vehicles 10 years and older.

This could make the vehicle unreliable uncomfortable and difficult to drive. Little things like air conditioning should not be over looked, driver comfort and fatigue play a vital role when a driver is maintaining a high concentration level for long periods of time.
This is where 2 Start Training have excelled in being able to provide customers with new up to date equipment, making training more enjoyable and comfortable. We have now been trading since November 2008, in which time we have invested heavily in our equipment to ensure we offer you the best tools for the job.

Our new training vehicles consist of new DAF LF rigid vehicles and DAF CF tractor units. Our aim at 2 Start is to have vehicles which are no older than 4 years old and we are constantly investing in our fleet to ensure we continue to provide the best facilities for our customers.
