Beresfield and Thornton depots: truck auto electrical and AC

Where the M1 meets the New England Highway, the depots around Beresfield and Thornton keep freight moving across the Hunter. We service your trucks and utes in the yard, between runs, so the electrics and AC don't cost you a trip to the workshop.

Depot servicing at the top of the M1

From a Beresfield yard, a truck can be on the M1 heading south, the New England Highway heading for Maitland or John Renshaw Drive heading for Kurri Kurri in a few minutes. That access is why the area is full of transport and logistics depots, and it's also why the trucks are rarely parked for long.

We work to your depot's rhythm. Tell us when the fleet is back in the yard and we'll plan the visit around it, so a regas or an electrical repair happens while the truck would be sitting anyway.

Thornton's industrial area and Black Hill

The Thornton industrial area adds more transport, trade and service yards, and there's further industrial and logistics land around Black Hill, close to the motorway. Between them, a lot of fleet moves in and out every day.

For larger fleets, a preventative maintenance program makes sense. We check electrical and AC systems on a schedule, so a failed compressor or a flat battery doesn't take a truck off the road on your busiest day.

Owner-drivers and smaller yards in Tarro and Woodberry

Not every truck in the area lives in a big depot. If you're an owner-driver or a small operator parking in Tarro or out Woodberry way, we come to you just the same.

A regas, a charging fault or a trailer plug that keeps playing up can be fixed where the truck sits. That way you're not losing a run to a workshop booking.

What a Beresfield or Thornton yard visit covers

Not sure where to start? Book a regas on two or three trucks, and we'll go over their electrics and wear items while we're in the yard.

  • Truck and ute AC regas, leak testing and vent temperature checks
  • Replacement compressors, condensers, evaporators and driers
  • Charging, starting and lighting faults on trucks and trailers
  • Beacons, light bars and cameras for yard and site vehicles
  • Braided harnesses for looms that keep failing

FAQs

Questions from Beresfield and Thornton fleets

Something not covered here? Call 0400 554 024 and ask.

Do you work weekends at Beresfield depots?

We can, by arrangement. Weekends are often when a depot can spare trucks, which makes them a good time for planned electrical and AC work. The same applies to weekend breakdowns.

How often should truck AC be serviced?

It depends on hours and conditions, but a check before each summer is a sensible starting point for most fleets. Our article on how often to regas fleet AC goes into more detail.

Is Thornton covered as well as Beresfield?

Yes. Thornton, Beresfield, Black Hill, Tarro and Woodberry are all covered, along with the wider Maitland area.

Will you work on cars parked at the depot?

Only if they're business vehicles. Company utes and pool cars are fine, but staff members' own cars, caravans and boats aren't something we work on.
