Marleys Transport

Heart of the wheatbelt - Western Australia

Grain

Marleys Transport is one of the largest grain transporters in the southern hemisphere carting around 10% of Western Australia's grain. We hold contracts with ARG to cart grain from off-rail bins to on-rail bins where it can then be carted by train to ports for export. We also move domestic grain from outlying areas to production mills and plants for processing, and, of course we cart for our farming customers at harvest time off farm to their local grain receivable point.

 

Fertiliser / Lime / Gypsum

Usually working in with grain movements to Perth we also cart approximately 15,000t of Lime and Fertiliser back from Perth and Lancelin each year to the surrounding farming properties. We also cart a quantity of Gypsum from surrounding mines.

Blower

10 blower trucks of varying capacities operate from our Perth depot delivering feed to the meat bird industry, intensive piggery sites, goat farmers, sheep feedlots, horse studs, dairy farmers and other ruminant feed lots within a 400km radius of the metropolitan area. These trucks are capable of unloading 30t of feed per hour depending on blowing conditions.

Livestock

We operate 4 livestock crates carting pigs from various breeders to livestock processors in the metropolitan area. These crates operate on a daily basis moving around 4500 pigs every week. The crates are a fold up design making it quicker, safer and easier for the operator to load and unload the livestock.

Raw Materials

A variety of raw materials including lupin hulls, limesand, meatmeal, calmin, poultry meal, millmix, tallow, chicken oil and more are carted from in and around the metropolitan area to various feed mills to be used in the production of feed pellets.

Warehousing

Marley's operate warehousing facilities in the Kewdale area for the storing of raw materials and feed cubes for re-distributing to customers as required. We have the capacity to load and deliver these materials in various sized configurations to suit the customer's requirements.

Tankers

We operate 2 Tiemans purpose built liquid fertilizer tankers which deliver fertilizer from the suppliers port to their depots or more commonly direct to the farmers onsite tanks. These tankers are equipped with onboard pumps capable of discharging 50 tonne or 40,000 litres per hour.
