What is a Class 5 licence?

A Class 5 licence is the highest level of truck licence in New Zealand, authorising you to drive truck and trailer units and heavy combination vehicles. It opens up the full range of long-haul and heavy freight work.

Because Class 5 vehicles are highly specialised, you supply your own compliant truck loaded to the required weight. Our instructors handle everything else — theory, practical training, learner licence, logbook, and all AA fees.
