CONFIDENTLY driving a low-profile flatbed truck and trailer UP TO 19m long

Delivering in country and rural areas as well as metropolitan areas

Ideally, you will inherently have the following qualities:

Our flat-bed trucks are low profile to allow for the height of the tanks. We have 2 x Iveco Daily trucks (car licence) and a Hino under 8T GVM - no log book required. You will sometimes drive oversize as the maximum width of the tanks is 3.62m. See the video for an example of a common delivery load and one of our Iveco truck and trailer combinations.
