At Arrow Transport Logistics & Quarantine Services, we’re proud to lead the way in sustainable logistics with the launch of our electric truck trial in Brisbane. The Mercedes-Benz eActros prime mover—one of the most advanced electric trucks in Australia—is now officially part of our fleet, helping us take real, tangible steps toward reducing our environmental impact.
Powered by the Sun. Driven by Purpose.
Operating as an A-double vehicle, the eActros is currently transporting empty containers around the Port of Brisbane, powered entirely by solar-charged electricity. This move aligns with our broader commitment to sustainable, future-focused logistics solutions.
As our Managing Director Craig Webster puts it:
“We’re excited to put an all-electric Mercedes-Benz to work with Arrow at the Port of Brisbane. This is about taking real action—moving containers on green energy while producing zero emissions.”
