The first step to the formation of LENNONS TRANSPORT SERVICES took place in 1988 with the purchase of an Atkinson prime mover and trailer by the managing directors Tony and Chris Lennon. Known to the industry as a general carrier in the early years, Lennons Transport Services has grown to become one of the leaders in the express transport business in the transport industry today. Over the latter years, Lennons Transport has seen the growth and demands of its major clients that has lead to Lennons Transport to operating daily services to all major capital cities across Australia. With a fleet of some 32 units, Lennons Transport now travels some 9.5 million kilometres over Australia annually to meet our client's transport needs. The total value of the fleet now exceeds 8.5 million dollars with Lennons Transport operating a modern fleet of vehicles. Lennons Transport Service now employs over 30 people across the nation who specialise in transport and logistics thus ensuring that customer satisfaction is the primary focus of the transport task. Lennons Transport Services implemented a strategy that ensures that Lennons and their clients due diligence requirements are met by implementing the Trucksafe Industry Accreditation program as well as the Transitional Fatigue Program. It is a policy of Lennons Transport Services that we will operate to ensure that the well being and safety of all our employees will never be compromised in the day-to-day operations of the business.

aaaaThe People
|

When you look at the question of what makes an organisation succeed, one of the valuable results of research is that the people involved in these organisations share much the same ideals, aspire to the same goals and share similar views. So often organisations stumble and even fall because of the succession of managers and owners who over a period of time lose touch with their goals, the very essence that made the organisation in the first place. Lennons Transport Services is not such an organisation and when it celebrated its first 10 years in 1989, the success was attributed in part to the solidarity of its people and its philosophies. With strong leadership, Lennons Transport has created such a culture. Lennons Transport has a high proportion of experienced, dedicated personnel with many years service and also dynamic lifeblood of young people to build upon the existing history and achievements.
