What the official data says about Wiltshire
C1 rounds straddle two counts. Wiltshire has 130 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.
Parcel and wholesale operations are where most C1 rounds sit. In Wiltshire the courier side alone is 0.06% of the 212,000 employee jobs the survey counts locally.
Across all occupations in Wiltshire, median full-time pay was £36,370 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 115 postal and courier activities workplaces in Wiltshire at the March 2025 reference date.

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.
