McNaughts Transport

Overview

McNaughts Transport has been moving agricultural commodities across southeastern Australia since 1960, growing from a single-truck operation in Finley, New South Wales, into one of the region’s most respected bulk freight carriers. With over six decades of experience in the agricultural supply chain, the company has developed deep expertise in the handling, transport, and logistics of grain, fertiliser, and other bulk commodities that form the backbone of rural Australian industry.

The company operates a fleet of road trains and B-double configurations purpose-built for high-volume commodity movements across South Australia, New South Wales, and Victoria. McNaughts’ strategic location in the southern Riverina places them at the centre of one of Australia’s most productive grain belts, and their network extends across state borders to connect farms, grain receival sites, fertiliser depots, and port facilities. Their long-standing relationships with agricultural cooperatives, grain traders, and fertiliser suppliers have made them an integral part of the rural supply chain in these regions.
