Yes I forgot about Bermeister transport. Memories come back when someone jogs it weren't they down the bottom of Adderley st near Duck River.

....The last i recall of old Charlie Burmeister was at Coward St Mascot ( not far from Oriordan St)
After TNT gobbled him up, the old tin shed lasted for donkeys years still with Burmeisters Freight Lines
written across the top. As i recall early in the piece, he was at Glebe point somewhere.....
Adderley St.. ?????dunno..........................

Didn't Burmeister's trucks load out of Goodyear tyres on Parramatta rd Auburn, seem to remember green 180 &190 Inters loading there , I think only tractor & truck tyres came out of there. I believe Bruce Panucci tried to get his hands on the contract as he only carted for Dunlop.I think Alltrans loaded out of there as well I might be wrong the memory is a bit foggy some one might be able to confirm

Billy, yes definitely in Adderley st Auburn/Lidcombe around 1962. They also had at least one 180 bogie tipper, that carted coke or flyash, or something similar local. Trucks were dark green.

O/nite ,.. Sounds OK to me...…….. I don't recall the first time I seen them at Mascot but, would have been later than that, still dark green 80s & 90s,
yard was a mess but the trucks looked ok.
