“We service all destinations across Victoria. I like to tell people that if you draw an arc between Mt Gambier in the west up to Mildura in the north across to Griffith NSW and down to Bega in the east—we service everything inside that arc, all 2540 towns and suburbs,” says Peter.

Morrows is a dangerous goods specialist, meaning we handle freight with absolute care, ensuring DG compliance at all times. “We assess freight requirements on a job-per-job basis; we need to ensure that we have all the necessary details to ensure your delivery occurs smoothly,” says Peter.
The right truck for the job
Morrows operates a diverse fleet configuration from small vans to B’Doubles, tautliners and open flatbeds; Morrows has the equipment to get your delivery done safely. “As we process each delivery, fleet type is selected on the type of freight and the delivery needs,” Peter explains. “All drivers are licensed to carry Dangerous Goods, and trucks are registered with Worksafe. We are known as a reliable DG carrier of choice for many small and large-scale chemical companies; we also carry a wide range of general freight; we can do it all.”
The Morrows advantage: Direct delivery
When it comes to dangerous goods, Morrows stands out by offering a direct-to-customer delivery model. Unlike its competitors with regional depots, Morrows delivers everything directly from its base to the customer.
“The benefit of this is that the goods are in the care of those qualified to handle dangerous goods—including a dangerous goods licensed driver and registered Worksafe vehicle,” says Peter. “Through fleet tracking, we have full visibility of customer stock at all times. It also won’t go to the wrong depot or into the hands of someone without dangerous goods experience.”
