About me:

Hi, my name is Andrew Randell, from 1995 to 2015 I owned / managed / operated an independent courier business with my wife.

I have extensive knowledge of Brisbane and surrounding districts and consider myself a driver first and foremost.

My last position was a temporary fill in HR driver for a small tpt company where i operated a 12 tonne 14 pallet and a 5 tonne 8 pallet curtain siders, for drivers whilst they had holidays.
