What the official data says about Slough

C1 rounds straddle two counts. Slough has 3,575 employee jobs in postal and courier activities and 1,250 in freight transport by road, and 7.5 tonne work is run out of both.

Across all occupations in Slough, median full-time pay was £42,027 a year in 2025. That is the whole local labour market rather than this job, and there is no published local figure for this job to set beside it.

UK Business Counts recorded 205 postal and courier activities workplaces in Slough at the March 2025 reference date, 30 of them employing ten people or more. 175 of them, 85.4%, employ under ten, below the usual courier share, so Slough carries more depot-sized operations running 7.5 tonne vehicles rather than vans.

The 7.5 tonne driver role

A 7.5 tonne rigid on category C1 is the bridge between a van and a lorry. The rounds are local, the drop counts are high and the vehicle is small enough to get down streets an artic could not attempt.
