Stella Elford - Levanta - Superior Workshop Solutions

Inland Petroleum – Dubbo, NSW

Inland Petroleum, a family-owned fuel distributor serving New South Wales, has proudly operated for three generations. Established in 1985, the company has grown to become a trusted partner in fuel distribution.

As their fleet grew, it became clear that relying on multiple external service providers was no longer cost-effective or efficient. The high labour rates and inefficiency of external servicing became unsustainable. To meet the operational demands of a larger fleet, Inland turned to Levanta to help establish an in-house maintenance workshop equipped with advanced tools for efficient, high-quality servicing of heavy vehicles.

The Challenge

With a rapidly growing fleet, Inland Petroleum faced challenges in maintaining efficiency, reducing costs, and minimising downtime. Managing maintenance externally was costly and didn’t allow Inland the control or speed required to keep up with fleet demands. Inland needed high-quality, durable equipment that could simplify the maintenance of large, multi-axle vehicles, enabling them to conduct preventive maintenance and quickly diagnose and repair issues.

Levanta's Solution

Levanta provided Inland Petroleum with a range of advanced equipment designed for heavy vehicle servicing, including:

Results and Benefits

Since adopting Levanta’s equipment, Inland Petroleum has experienced substantial operational improvements, including a 38% reduction in monthly repair and maintenance costs. Shifting maintenance in-house has also enabled Inland to create new jobs, adding 15 positions within their local community. The implementation of Levanta’s tools has streamlined Inland’s ability to conduct preventive maintenance, resulting in less fleet downtime and increased efficiency.

“After 14 months of using Levanta equipment, we’ve been able to measure a 38% monthly cost reduction in repair and maintenance.

Levanta has helped us achieve less downtime through getting us back to a point of doing preventative maintenance instead of reactive maintenance. Over the last 14 months, we’ve got the equipment, trucks and trailers back to a standard now where it is only preventative maintenance, unless we have a major breakdown.

This means we’ve got more equipment on the road, there’s a lot less downtime and we’re a lot more efficient in what we’re doing as a company.”

Drew McCallum, Director – Inland Petroleum

Inland Petroleum Workshop Feedback

“Here at Inland Petroleum, maintaining our vehicles to the highest industry standard is our main priority. With the Levanta Roller Brake Tester and Shaker, we can maintain our equipment to the highest level that our competitors can only aspire to.”

“One of the key features of the Levanta Roller brake tester is the single man operation. This enables us to complete a brake test on one of our longest assets with 15 axles, with only the requirement of the one bloke in under 15 minutes.”

“The main reason why we chose Levanta equipment is the range of workshop equipment they have, from standard axle stands right up to our knuckle lift. The main reason we went with a Levanta knuckle lift over traditional 4 post hoists is you don't have to worry about load distribution or split weights. Plus, we get a double combination, which lets us bring b-doubles and the truck into the workshop at once.”

"We have six of these lifts which allow us to lift the tanker off the ground and do all their fit outs easily and effectively, without being on the ground as such. The reason that we like to use the column lifts here at Inland Petroleum is when you get the trailer up to the height you want, we put our 8T axle stands underneath it, which also gives us added safety, and we can use the lifts on other projects throughout the workshop.”

“The training that we've had with this gear, it's given us a lot of confidence in doing the work without worrying about outsourcing and having the confidence that truck on the road is safe as houses, keeping everyone safe. We've had truck drivers come back saying that their trailers are tracking straight, which in turn is easier on them, less driver fatigue, gives us better tire wear, better longevity of the vehicle, less strain on the suspension components.”

“After 14 months of using Levanta equipment, we've been able to measure a 38% monthly cost reduction in repair and maintenance. Levanta has helped us achieve less downtime through getting us back to a point of doing preventative maintenance instead of reactive maintenance. Over the last 14 months, we've got the equipment, trucks and trailers back to a standard now where it is only preventative maintenance, unless we have a major breakdown. This means we've got more equipment on the road, there's a lot less downtime and we’re a lot more efficient in what we're doing as a company.”

Cornells Diesel – A 20-Year Partnership with Levanta

Since 2003, Cornells Diesel has been a trusted client of Levanta, beginning with a small workshop in Wetherill Park, NSW. Over the last 20 years, this partnership has grown and evolved, leading to multiple successful projects and a deep relationship built on trust, reliability, and Levanta’s high-quality workshop solutions.

The Early Days: Wetherill Park (2003)

In 2003, Cornells Diesel, then a small operation, purchased two 2-post hoists from Levanta for their workshop in Wetherill Park. This was the start of a partnership that would see both companies grow side by side. As Cornells Diesel expanded its operations, their demands for workshop equipment increased, and Levanta was there every step of the way.

Sunshine West Expansion (2008 -2016)

By 2008, Cornells Diesel had expanded into a new location in Sunshine West, VIC, purchasing three more hoists from Levanta. However, the growth of Cornells Diesel quickly outpaced the capacity of this workshop. In response, they turned to Levanta once again to help design and implement a full workshop fit-out for a larger facility in the same area.

Completed in 2016, this comprehensive fit-out was designed to meet Cornells Diesel’s increased operational demands. It included:

5 x 5.5-tonne in-ground cylinder lifts
1 x 8-tonne OMER Knuckle lift
Exhaust extraction system
DURA workshop furniture fit-out through the main workshop and rebuild room
Full oil delivery system with bulk storage tanks and oil management system
Compressed air system, including a 20Hp air compressor
Additional workshop equipment

Reflecting on this successful project, Devesh Miresh, CEO of Cornells Diesel, stated,

“Levanta did the full 3D drawing of the fit-out and helped us with the process of work. They did a lot of hard work to make everything run smoothly and rolled out the whole project, so it was really good!”

Looking Ahead: Future Growth

Cornells Diesel’s success and expansion didn’t stop there. Devesh Miresh continues to see Levanta as a trusted partner in his company’s future projects. Cornells Diesel has contracted Levanta for their next major project—a workshop fit-out in Brisbane. This upcoming facility will replicate the same system installed at their Sunshine West location in 2016, further expanding their national footprint.

Devesh shared his thoughts on this long-standing partnership: “We wanted to improve on processes to get work done quicker and have the workshop be more efficient, and the fuel injection repair done more efficiently. Levanta has been on the journey all the way through, and the business has been growing year by year.”

He went on to praise Levanta’s dedication to customer service: “The service was good, the after-service was good. Any issues were resolved in a timely manner, and we never got affected with business.”

A Partnership Built on Trust and Results

The relationship between Cornells Diesel and Levanta has spanned two decades, with each project reflecting Levanta’s commitment to delivering tailored, effective workshop solutions. As Devesh Miresh summarised, “It is something that was designed and constructed by Levanta in 2016—it really works, and we’ll be doing the same thing three times over.”

This ongoing collaboration highlights Levanta’s ability to support the growth of businesses like Cornells Diesel, offering long-term solutions that evolve with the needs of their clients.

Phoenix Testing – Independent COF Facility in Inglewood, NZ

Phoenix Testing is a newly established independent COF (Certificate of Fitness) testing facility, founded by Nathan Gillespie in early 2024. It operates as a sister company to ‘Phoenix Haulage’, a logging transport company Nathan launched in 2020.

Phoenix Testing was born out of necessity—Nathan’s Haulage business had a significant amount of downtime within the fleet, with the distant location of the nearest NZTA COF testing facility, negatively impacting operations and efficiency.

Determined to fill this gap in the Taranaki region, Nathan applied for and received approval from the New Zealand Transport Authority (NZTA) to set up an independent testing facility. His goal was to offer reliable COF services without the downtime and travel hassles, both for his own fleet and for other operators in the region.

Project Scope:

Nathan began researching suitable equipment for his testing facility and soon discovered Levanta, a market leader in heavy vehicle workshop service equipment. After browsing the Levanta website, he contacted Jackson from Levanta NZ to discuss his specific requirements for setting up the new facility. Nathan’s primary focus was acquiring a robust truck brake testing system and other essential equipment that would streamline the COF testing process without delaying repairs and maintenance.

Key Project Components:

Levanta's Solution:

The installation process was quick and efficient, allowing Phoenix Testing to be up and running in a short space of time, fully equipped to handle COF testing – not only for his fleet but for other operators in the region. This investment has significantly reduced the downtime for his Phoenix Haulage trucks, while also offering a critical service to the wider Taranaki community.

Nathan’s emphasised the efficiency and quality of the installation, as well as the cutting-edge technology offered by the Sherpa testing equipment.

“The experience has been pretty good, just a quick process, and now the equipment is installed. I highly recommend Levanta NZ for any future workshop equipment purchases.”

Why Phoenix Testing Chose Levanta:

Phoenix Testing’s partnership with Levanta NZ has resulted in a well-equipped, high-functioning COF testing facility that offers a crucial service to the Taranaki region. By providing the best in heavy vehicle testing technology, Levanta has enabled Phoenix Testing to streamline its operations and support both its own fleet and other local transport operators.

Maximising Fleet Efficiency: How Regular Wheel Alignment Benefits Every Stakeholder in the Heavy Vehicle Industry

When it comes to maintaining heavy vehicles, wheel alignment is often overlooked, yet it plays a crucial role in reducing operating costs and enhancing vehicle performance. A well-executed wheel alignment program can lead to significant savings on fuel and tyres, reduce wear and tear on essential components, and improve overall vehicle safety and longevity.

From fleet owners looking to cut costs, to truck tyre shops and dealerships aiming to provide superior service, to tyre suppliers and trailer manufacturers seeking to optimise product performance—every stakeholder in the heavy vehicle industry can benefit from regular wheel alignment. In this article, we’ll explore how investing in wheel alignment can drive value across different sectors and help you maximise efficiency and profitability.

Fleet Owners

Fleet owners stand to gain significant cost savings through a well-established wheel alignment program. Regular wheel alignment, integrated into scheduled maintenance, can lead to a substantial reduction in operational costs. Specifically, a fleet can achieve a 5% reduction in annual fuel spending and a 10% saving on tyre expenditure. These savings stem from reduced rolling resistance and minimised tyre wear, which together contribute to lower fuel consumption and fewer tyre replacements.

Example: Reduced Fuel Costs

Distance travelled per annum: 200,000 km
Diesel fuel price: $2.20/litre
Fuel consumption: 4 litres/10km
Fuel cost reduction thanks to wheel alignment: Conservatively, 3%

Using the above figures, a single truck can save approximately $5,280 per year through effective wheel alignment practices:

Total cost reduction: 0.03 x 200,000 km x $2.20 x 0.4 = $5,280 saved per year/per truck.

Beyond cost savings, regular wheel alignment also results in reduced wear and tear on wheels and axles, improving the longevity of essential vehicle components. This means fewer breakdowns and repairs, leading to more uptime and overall operational efficiency.

Truck Tyre Shops

Truck tyre workshops can enhance their profitability by offering comprehensive wheel alignment services. A common oversight in the industry is the impact of rear-wheel misalignment, which causes up to 80% of irregular wear on front tyres. By promoting total wheel alignment, truck tyre shops can maximise profits while aligning with best practices and providing added value to their customers. Offering wheel alignment services ensures customers experience fewer irregular tyre wear issues and extended tyre life, resulting in repeat business and higher customer satisfaction.

Tyre Suppliers

Tyre suppliers are also affected by wheel alignment issues. Wheel misalignment is one of the primary culprits of abnormal tyre wear on prime movers, trucks, buses, and long-distance heavy vehicles. By implementing and recommending a total wheel alignment regime at the time of tyre replacement, tyre suppliers can ensure that the lifespan of the tyres is optimised. This approach not only improves the value proposition for their customers but also strengthens their reputation for providing quality and long-lasting tyre solutions.

Truck Dealerships

Truck dealerships often hear complaints about irregular tyre wear on the front tyres of new trucks. This issue raises the question of how regularly wheel alignment checks are performed. The alignment of both front and rear wheels is a critical aspect of servicing that is frequently overlooked. Additionally, trailer axle misalignment is the second most common wheel alignment issue. If this issue is not investigated thoroughly, truck dealerships may find themselves burdened by customer complaints regarding irregular tyre wear on their fleets. Addressing these issues proactively through regular wheel alignment checks can prevent these problems and enhance customer satisfaction.

Trailer Manufacturers

Trailer manufacturing is another critical industry where wheel alignment plays a crucial role. It has become apparent that some newly manufactured trailers are not accurately aligned at the time of assembly. The positioning and aligning of axles on newly manufactured trailers is not always comprehensive, which can lead to axle offset and axle rolling issues. It is important for trailer manufacturers to ensure accurate alignment during assembly to prevent premature wear and tear and to enhance the overall performance and safety of the trailers they produce.

Technical Training Schools/Colleges

Levanta’s wheel alignment machines are among Australia and New Zealand’s most trusted and widely commended equipment. They are preferred by busy workshops and training institutions due to their reliability and Levanta’s renowned aftersales support. Technical training schools and colleges that incorporate Levanta’s wheel alignment technology into their programs provide students with hands-on experience using industry-leading equipment, preparing them for successful careers in the heavy vehicle service industry.

Drivers

Drivers are another crucial stakeholder who benefit from regular wheel alignment. A properly aligned vehicle is easier to drive, as the driver does not have to constantly correct the steering to keep the truck or trailer straight. This significantly reduces driver fatigue, leading to a more comfortable driving experience. A vehicle that naturally runs straight within its lane also enhances safety for both the driver and other road users. Less fatigue and more control over the vehicle contribute to overall road safety, making wheel alignment an essential factor not just for the vehicle’s efficiency, but for driver well-being too

Whether you are a fleet owner, tyre supplier, truck dealer, trailer manufacturer, or training institution, investing in quality wheel alignment equipment and regular maintenance is key to optimising performance and ensuring the best outcomes for your business.

MaxiTrans Trailers Workshop – Campbelltown NSW

"When we went out looking for an equipment supply, we really wanted a one-stop shop and a one-stop solution. Troy, my service manager mentioned Levanta and to be honest with you, we didn't look back. It was really easy, great customer service. The installation process was exceptional." Glen Sharmon, General Manager NSW MaxiTrans.

MaxiTrans, a leading name in the transport equipment industry, faced an urgent need to relocate its branch within a very short timeframe. The business required a fully functioning workshop to continue operations profitably and to meet customer demands. They secured a much larger site, which necessitated extensive building modifications to accommodate trailer maintenance, fibreglass repairs, and spray painting facilities.

Challenges of the project:

The timeline was critical for MaxiTrans. The new workshop had to be fully operational by the time they ceased operations at their previous site. Managing this transition while keeping the business running was a significant challenge. The management team needed a partner who could alleviate some of the stress and ensure a seamless relocation.

Levanta's Solution:

Levanta provided turnkey solution, providing everything MaxiTrans needed from a single, high-quality supplier. A dedicated Project Manager oversaw the entire process, ensuring timely delivery and installation of all necessary equipment.

“We managed to get all the equipment we needed in one place, basically a turnkey solution… it was one less stress that I had to worry about, that's for sure,” Glen Sharmon explained. “It really surprised me the equipment, how quick it came. I thought we would have challenges in that space, but you know, a three-month lead time was, for us, not a challenge for Levanta.”

The Project Included:

Why MaxiTrans chose Levanta:

MaxiTrans selected Levanta for several reasons, including their renowned quality products, previous positive experiences, responsiveness, fast and clear communication, and a can-do, no-fuss attitude. This successful relocation and the seamless establishment of their new workshop underscore Levanta’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. By providing a comprehensive, turnkey solution, Levanta not only met but exceeded MaxiTrans’s expectations, strengthening their reputation as a reliable partner in the industry.
