Reviews
"Great place to work one of the best employers I have worked for."
"If you are looking for a drivers job then I would recommend them, the person I spoke to was very helpful and they are a local Port Adelaide company with a lot of history"
"Probably should teach your drivers how to change lane on the Port River Expressway, no brains at all!"
"Very hectic work place, plenty of work if you want to drive thier way."
"Your driver tailgated my wife on the A8 about 5km east of Bordertown heading West in a 60km/hr zone due to new surface Monday 8/8/22 @ 13:50pm. Absolutely disgraceful. In the Photo he was dropping back as I had been taking pictures with my flash on but previously had been less than 2m away from the rear of our car with our 2 young children in the back. Would have emailed if there was a complaints dept but there doesnt seem to be one."
