Nightingale Transport gains TruckSafe accreditation

12 March 2014

The TruckSafe safety accreditation program is proud to welcome Nightingale Transport as its newest accredited member.

Starting out as an owner/driver operation in 1994, today family business Nightingale Transport has a fleet of 17 trucks. With offices in Jimboomba (QLD) and Unanderra (NSW), the Nightingale Transport fleet provides service to all areas of Australia and specialises in open flat top trailers and over-dimension loads.

Nightingale Transport Director Glenn Nightingale said the business joined TruckSafe in recognition of the importance they already placed on having safe, reliable equipment and well trained, professional staff.

“Our highest priority is to provide the best service to our customers in the safest, most efficient manner possible,” Mr Nightingale said.

“The road is our workplace: it’s essential that our employees and the public are not put at risk by our operations.
“It’s also important for our customers to know we’re doing the right thing. That’s why we joined TruckSafe.”

The Chief Executive of the Australian Trucking Association, Stuart St Clair, congratulated Nightingale Transport for taking steps to become one of Australia’s safest trucking operators.

“TruckSafe accredited businesses go above and beyond the requirements of the law to meet the TruckSafe maintenance, training, management and driver health standards,” Mr St Clair said.

“If you use a TruckSafe operator, you know you’re dealing with a safe, professional business.”
