Overview
Road
Our fleet is comprised of over 100 primemovers and 60 rigid trucks to assist with
metro delivery and local distribution tasks. Our linehaul fleet is equipped with
the latest satellite tracking devices to assist us in both monitoring the movement
of the fleet and ensuring compliance with driving hours and rest break regulations.
We also operate 150 trailers in configurations including flat tops, tautliners,
drop decks, extendables and prairie wagons to ensure we are able to meet the varying
needs of our customers.
We choose to retain a large company-owned fleet in order to provide the best possible
service to our clients. We’re continually upgrading the fleet to ensure we obtain
the benefits of improved technologies, such as fuel economy, lower vehicle emissions
and reduced maintenance costs, all which mean we can continue to provide our clients
with exceptional value for money.
Simon National Carriers is also able to provide clients with transport services
that require specialised equipment through our national network of specialised carriers.
Rail
Simon National Carriers have extensive rail infrastructure on appropriate long haul
routes between the east coast and Western Australia, and from the southern states
into North Queensland. Our rail fleet is comprised of over 200 containers, many
of which have a side-loading capability, enabling loading by our clients in a similar
manner to a normal road unit.
Our equipment includes 20ft, 40ft and 48ft units in a variety of configurations,
including flat racks (or transiflats), prairie wagons and tautliner units.
