The
Collett Transport story . . .
I started in business
as self-employed in 1994 operating an eight wheeled tipper vehicle carrying aggregates from the local quarry, also operating
a unit and semi-bulk trailer which carried grain and animal feeds. I was trained as a commercial vehicle engineer and
had gained vast experience since 1986, so carried out my own maintenance and repairs. In working alongside
many other small operators and businesses, I observed how it was becoming increasingly difficult for them to find good vehicle
repairers and specialised welders. Due to demands placed on me for my skills, I realised the potential
for going back into my trained profession.
In 1997
I began a mobile repair service, working from a fully equipped van, immediately gaining several customers in the local area.
I built up a customer base, carrying out repairs and maintenance on site and offering a 24-hour breakdown service.
I met Bridget in 2001 who then joined me in business in 2002, together we have
steadily expanded the company, developing it into what you see today.
