Cranstons Transport

23/09/2025

🚛 POSITION VACANT - Local HC Driver 🚛

Cranstons have a full-time local role going! Based out of Bathurst and home every night (yes, your own bed - not a truck bunk). Runs are all over the Central West - Orange, Dubbo, Mudgee, Wagga, Parkes, Narromine, Gilgandra … and plenty of spots in between.

🕑 Hours? Flexible. Start early/finish early … or sleep in and finish later. We get it - life happens.

💪 Experience with a rear-mount Moffat handy but not essential (if you don’t want to touch a Moffat, that’s ok - it won’t touch you either).

This gig could suit:

- Someone new to their HC license looking for experience without battling Sydney traffic.

- A seasoned HC driver wanting a step towards MC relief driving with us.

- Or just someone with a good work ethic who enjoys being home each night (and maybe bragging that their work “took them everywhere” while still being back in Bathurst for dinner).

At Cranstons, we get that transport is changing - so we work with our team to balance work and life.

👉 Interested? Ring Brett for a chat on 0418 603 381, or drop by the depot.

LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, WE'RE HIRING! 😂

Do you have an MC licence and want interstate work 5 days per week? Know anybody in your hometown, and you both want to job/truck-share for a work/life balance?

Do you have an HC licence and want to run to Sydney daily or even a few days a week?

To enquire about rates and if the position may suit you, give Brett a call today on 0418 603 381.

* Driver base for:
- MC - various locations in eastern states
- HC - Bathurst/Orange/Lithgow/Dubbo

PS. We are a little fussy, so if your driving exploits have made you Facebook famous for the wrong reasons, please don't apply.

Appreciate those unexpected moments where you realise how far you have come, but never forgetting where you came from and who has helped you along the way.

Nearly 15 years ago we decided to buy a truck, and on a random trip through Kingaroy we were taken back to where it all began ... our very first truck.

Informative 2 days at the NatRoad 2017 Conference.

With a focus on "Transport in Transition", members of the team were excited to see options in the technological space that bring improved safety for our drivers and other road users, and also discuss ways of attracting new faces to our wonderful profession.

We also enjoyed catching up with friends, both new and old.
