Stephenson Transport gains TruckSafe accreditation

23 October 2014

The TruckSafe accreditation program is proud to welcome Stephenson Transport as its newest member.

Based in the Gippsland region of Victoria, Stephenson Transport started servicing its local area with one truck thirty years ago. Since forming a company in 2007, the business has grown to include 4 crane-mounted trucks and an interstate transport fleet.

TruckSafe Chairman Stephen Marley said he was delighted to welcome Stephenson Transport to the TruckSafe family.

“TruckSafe is a voluntary program. Our accredited operators choose to go beyond what is required by law to make sure that their staff, equipment and procedures are the best in the business,” Mr Marley said.

“When you use a TruckSafe accredited operator, you know you are dealing with one of Australia’s safest transport businesses.

“We’re proud of our members, and their dedication to safety. That’s why you can find the full list of TruckSafe operators at the website, www.trucksafe.com.au.”   

Stephenson Transport Managing Director, Paul Stephenson, said they were proud of their ability to tackle tricky loads safely, particularly bulky or oversized equipment.

“We joined TruckSafe because it’s a good way to operate – I think it’s the way of the future, and we want to be ready,” Mr Stephenson said.

“Having TruckSafe accreditation makes it easy for us to enter other schemes, and it helps us document the work we do to keep our fleet in top shape.

“It also helps us stand out from the competition.”

TruckSafe is the trucking industry’s leading safety accreditation program. It is an industry initiative that delivers competitive advantages to accredited operators. Businesses in TruckSafe meet higher safety standards than those required by law, and are audited regularly by qualified auditors selected by TruckSafe.
