Mallon Transport Services Limited 

Mallon Transport Services Ltd was set up in 2016 to help and support haulage companies with their compliance audits.

With experience dating back over 20 years Philip has successfully undertaken compliance audits for every customer.

The company also offers clients a wider range of services including Digital & Analogue Tachograph, Downloading & Analysis and compliance Consultancy.​

“As every haulier knows compliance is essential in the​ industry and what we do here is offer a complete compliance service to hauliers,” Philip explained.

Repeat business is a big aspect of what Mallon Transport Services is about, as the same hauliers continue to choose the company first when it comes to their compliance.

Philips expertise and service quality has enabled him to adapt to the needs of every customer from a single vehicle haulier to a multi vehicle operator was what originally made him take the decision to go out on his own and, thankfully, he hasn’t looked back since.

“I started off as a driver and when I qualified as a Transport Manager, I then started to learn the compliance side of the industry,” Philip stated.

“It’s all about education and my job essentially is education of both the operator and the driver. I’ve always talked to a driver as a driver and it’s my job to try and eliminate the faults and help them learn more about compliance within the industry.” He added: “It’s about making the company aware of their responsibilities in regards of compliance within the industry and helping and supporting them put systems in place to achieve this.”

Today, as an Approved Driver CPC Centre, Mallon Transport Services offers drivers and hauliers alike all they need to know when it comes to having the proper compliance for regulations. “Thankfully, every audit I’ve completed since has been successful. The success and business that we’ve had since starting here has been achieved through word of mouth.”

For Philip, “it’s all about mutual respect in the haulage industry” and customers seem to have been satisfied time and time again with the service he provides. “It’s a lot about repeat business. I see the same people every month and there’s always room to grow and help more hauliers within the industry,” said Philip.

“I’ve always had the intention of growing the business and the main goal has always been to keep hauliers compliant with regulations.”

2020 will see Mallon Transport Services enter into its fourth year and, they’re as busy as ever up on Derryvore Lane in Portadown.

So what has been the secret? How has this compliance consultancy company grown to earn a reputation which sees its clients nationwide coming back time and time again?

Honesty with clients has always been the best policy, “I’d like to think that I tell it like I see it,” he stated plainly. “I’ve been in this industry for 25 years and I started at the bottom and worked in every aspect of the industry on my way to where I am now. One thing I’ve always felt in this industry is that if you’re willing to tell someone the truth, you’ll earn their respect.
