Currently driving a B double hauling modified 20ft containers for sweetcorn harvest. Going to farms around central west NSW, QLD and VIC to get loaded then bring back to trans load yard in Bathurst. This requires a mix of offroad driving and outback road negotiation as well as usual manoeuvres on farms and yards.

Also required is upkeep of NHVR logbook and all safety protocols in place for both farms and rail transfer yard, according to both operators and OHS stipulations.

I perform some degree of fault rectification and repairs on both truck and trailers as required.
