I completed my excavator, roller and skid steer tickets through cairns truck school, thanks to my trainer Taffy. Taffy was one of the best trainers I've had through any course I've completed, he was professional, friendly, informative and very patient in his methods. I honestly felt able to go and operate any one of the machines straight away on site with confidence.

I would thoroughly recommend Cairns Truck School as a training organisation to obtain a heavy vehicle licence. They were very accomadating to all of my needs and provided a professional and prompt service.
I would also like to extend a personal thankyou to Kirsten who was my instructor. Kirsten was patient, encouraging, provide clear instruction and firm when required. She also treated me as a competent and capable individual and acknowledged my prior skills. This helped lift my confidence and allowed me to successfully gain my MR licence. I personally recommend her as an instructor for anyone who is nervous, anxious or female and wants to succeed in the transport industry.

Ed P

Outstanding trainer. I've driven 7.5t trucks for a good time but Joe taught me loads with his combination of experience and ability to get me to focus on my areas of focus. I passed first time with a couple of minor errors. Cairns is the ideal place to do an HR course - not too much traffic to piss you off but enough to challenge. Best driving school in Queensland.

Alicea provided great teaching and knowledge for me to pass my MR test. She was easy going and friendly and understood my learning style immediately. She highlighted the points of concern in my ability, and in the lesson helped me gather confidence to address those concerns for the assessment; and I’m now addressing those same concerns in my car. Alicea made a potentially stressful situation into a positive and rewarding one for me, which I'm grateful for! Thanks, Nath

Spent a few days with Taffy at the Enviro-Land active worksite covering various earthmoving machines. He is knowledgeable, friendly and extremely competent at all facets of the machines. Always willing to assist and help when you are stuck. Spending time with each trainee was priceless and ensured everyone passed on the days I attended. Great job mate!

For me the best teacher. He helps a lot especially in the theoric part of the course. I would like to had a teacher like that when I went to school,in the very short timing we had he did a great job.

5 Stars

Andrew M

I was surprised to get through with no NCDE or CDE marks. Joe's thorough education and preparation was obviously well explained and easy to accept. I wish to apologise to Joe as toward the end he was repeating himself; which I think was me trying to concentrate on the now, listening to Joe about just past events and me getting nervous about the approaching test. With great THANKS to JOE. Andrew MacGowan

Michal R

Hello, I would like to thank you very much for the training for the practical driving test. My teacher Reoun was very professional and patient. Although my English is at a basic level, I passed the practical test thanks to his approach and your help. Thanks also to the ladies at the driving school for their professional and empathetic approach. Thank you very much for that and I wish you many happy students like I was. Michal Rabas Czech Republic

David C

My driving lesson yesterday with Taffy was extremely helpful and even enjoyable. I can honestly say that without his very thorough explanations of the truck itself, and the confidence building skills he has, there is no way I would have passed my test. Taffy knows exactly how to point out weak spots in your driving skills and does a great job correcting any faulty habits and also preparing you mentally as well as driving skill wise to actually pass your test. I highly recommend Taffy Thomas and the Cairns Truck School as the very best way to get a Heavy Rigid license, I was honestly amazed at how streamlined the whole process was, all the results of very professional and hands on experience in the business at hand. Thanks guys, you all did a great job. Dave, a very satisfied customer.

Couldn’t have asked for a better driving school or trainer. Sent a request to find out prices which I received quickly and efficiently.

You guys are awesome I'm looking forward to coming back and getting more machinery tickets just because of how good and informative the trainers were I think the part that helped me the most was how the trainers would explain the mechanics and the inner workings of the vehicle to further help me understand and better operate the vehicle
