What the official data says about Warwickshire
C1 rounds straddle two counts. Warwickshire has 4,520 employee jobs in postal and courier activities and 5,000 in freight transport by road, and 7.5 tonne work is run out of both.
Parcel and wholesale operations are where most C1 rounds sit. In Warwickshire the courier side alone is 1.37% of the 329,000 employee jobs the survey counts locally.
Across all occupations in Warwickshire, median full-time pay was £40,536 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 285 postal and courier activities workplaces in Warwickshire at the March 2025 reference date, 15 of them employing ten people or more. 270 of them, 94.7%, employ under ten. The handful that do not are where C1 rounds are loaded and dispatched.
Of the postal and courier activities employee jobs the 2024 survey splits by hours in Warwickshire, 800 are part time, 18.5% of the split. The middle across the West Midlands is 8.9%, so Warwickshire sits above it, 1st of 14 areas on this measure. Courier work carries more part-time hours than haulage, and a share around this level is the ordinary result of evening and weekend rounds.
Two further counts round out the Warwickshire picture: 12,000 employee jobs in warehousing and storage, and 21,520 employee jobs across freight, warehousing and courier work.

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.
