Vehicle Fleet
O'Connor Transport operates up to 90 vehicles in the delivery of import and export maritime containers. Each is replaced on a strict rotational program.
Trailer Fleet
A full range of container carrying skeletal trailers is necessary to cater for varied applications. Multi-trailer operations are a mainstay of the business. Building trailer pools for drop and swap operations at strategic locations to meet with customer requirement is encouraged to remove time sensitivity and improve DC efficiency.
