Why JB Parttime

On the overnight run since 2008.

A bakery contract lives or dies on the truck turning up every night. That is the job we have been doing for the last eighteen years.

  • Insured end to end

    Goods in transit and marine cargo cover on every load, plus WorkCover.

  • Refrigerated where it counts

    12 of our 25 vehicles carry refrigerated bodies, so chilled and fresh lines never ride warm.

  • Three bases, less dead running

    Hillside covers Melbourne and the north. Colac covers the west and the coast. Regional runs start close to where they are going.

  • Food-safe handling

    Clean, food-grade bodies and drivers who handle bread, dairy and fresh produce every night of the week.

All of Victoria, from three bases.

Metro Melbourne, the coast, the west and the north. If it is in Victoria, we can run it.

Questions

Before you send a quote.

Anything not covered here, call us on 0468 772 402.

Do you run overnight bread delivery for bakeries?

Yes. Overnight bakery delivery is the core of what we do. We load after the bake and run through the night, so bread, rolls and pastry arrive ahead of the morning trade.

Can you carry chilled goods?

Yes. 12 of our 25 vehicles are refrigerated, so chilled lines such as dairy, meat and produce stay cold from pickup to drop-off.

What areas do you cover?

All of Victoria. We run out of three bases, Hillside in Melbourne's north west, Colac in the state's west and Albury on the NSW border, covering Mornington, Geelong, Warrnambool, Casterton, Shepparton and everywhere in between.

Are the goods insured in transit?

Yes. We carry goods in transit and marine cargo insurance, along with WorkCover.

Do you take on regular contracts or one-off jobs?

Both. Most of our work is regular scheduled runs for bakeries and food businesses, and we also take one-off freight and courier jobs.
