Pilatti Bros. Transport

Our host Lyndon Pilatti welcomed members and introduced his wife Sue.

 

The workshop and offices are about six years old and very large to accommodate machinery and goods. 

 

One aspect of the business is to ensure compliance with the Chain of Responsibility laws. The ‘Chain of Responsibility’ legislation was introduced into WA law in April this year. It is basically about load restraint on vehicles, and means if you are involved in consigning, packing, loading, driving, operating/Managing or receiving in the transport process, you may be liable should a loaded item come loose causing injury or damage.

 

Lyndon explain their measures for securing a load and described some of the equipment now needed to comply.

 

Pilatti Bros. are also an agent for Holcim for mixing and delivering concrete, a very competitive business. On the transport side they deliver goods for many local companies with regular trips to Perth and other major centres.

 

Some member took the opportunity to check out the workshops, office and photographs of some of the history of Collie transport equipment and people involved.
