The P J Murphy transport fleet is exclusively late model Volvo. Our plant fleet is predominantly Caterpillar and Volvo supported with good quality ancillary equipment. Our in-house engineering team attends to all daily checks and routine maintenance.

Our employed operators are all CPCS certificated and our employed drivers are all licensed. Our management team are fully qualified and hold CSCS Managers or Academically Qualified Person Cards.

The P J Murphy fleet of over thirty late-registered Euro 6 Volvo 8-wheel tippers means we can deliver anything from one load to long-term large volume requirements

We have carried out contracts and sub-contracts for Tier 1 contractors and national developers. Please read our case studies for more about the scope, terms and benefits we have delivered.

We can normally provide trucks for the next working day when ordered by 2pm.

For larger quantities there will be a build up over a day or two. We will agree the resources with you. 

The maximum authorised mass of our tippers is 32 tonnes and they are all fitted with weigh loaders to ensure optimum loads. We work on 9 solid cubic metres for most of the materials that we commonly carry. 

Haulage, disposal, earthworks, construction and plant hire are priced depending on the requirements of the job. 

Factors affecting the price will be discussed on enquiry and include tonnage, distance, disposal, materials to be supplied or removed and contract terms.

All our plant can be delivered by our own transport fleet including our STGO Cat 3 low loader rated to 150 tonnes. Please read our plant hire page for more information.
