The Equipment Behind Every Job We Take On.
From standard pallet runs to oversized and dangerous goods freight, our freight fleet and transport equipment are matched to the job in front of us.
Fleet & Equipment
Our Fleet
Running a mixed freight fleet lets us put the right vehicle against the right job, rather than squeezing every load into the same truck. It’s a big part of how we’re able to take on freight other carriers turn away.
General Freight Vehicles
Tautliner and curtainsider trucks and trailers covering palletised and carton freight across our metro and regional routes, quick to load from the side and weather-protected in transit.
Heavy Haul & Multi-Utility Vehicles
Flat-bed and low-loader combinations for oversized, bulky or heavy loads, including project cargo, matched to the load rather than adapted after the fact.
Warehouse Handling Equipment
Forklifts, reach trucks and barcode scanning technology supporting our Dandenong South, Morwell and Bairnsdale depots.
How We Match Vehicle to Job
A tautliner that’s perfect for a standard pallet run is the wrong choice for a load that needs a flat-bed and a permit. Getting this decision right before the truck leaves the depot is most of what keeps a difficult job simple instead of turning into a problem on the road. It’s a quieter part of the business than the freight itself, but it’s the part that actually makes "we handle what others won’t" true rather than just a line on the website.
Keeping the Fleet Road-Ready
Vehicles are maintained and checked on an ongoing basis, not just when something goes wrong. A truck that’s off the road for an unplanned repair is a missed delivery for a customer somewhere, and that’s the real cost of skipping maintenance, not just the repair bill.

Common questions
Fleet & Equipment FAQs
Do you have vehicles suited to oversized or awkward loads?
Yes. Our heavy haul and multi-utility vehicles are matched to bulky, heavy or awkwardly shaped freight, see our Customised Freight Solutions page for more on how we plan those jobs.
Can your fleet handle both metro and regional Victorian runs?
Yes, our general freight vehicles cover both, run out of depots across Melbourne, Gippsland and East Gippsland so the vehicle and the route are already matched to local conditions.
