About Us

A Legacy of Reliability, Strength and Proven Performance

Membrey’s was founded in 1962 with one truck and a simple promise: exceptional service. Three generations later, we operate one of Australia’s largest specialist fleets, trusted by industry leaders nationwide. While our fleet has grown, our values remain constant – reliability, safety and professionalism. Today, with depots in VIC and QLD, we combine tradition with modern capability to support Tier 1 contractors and government clients on projects of every scale.
