TruckWeek is a great opportunity to give your business or industry group positive exposure. Anyone can hold a TruckWeek event, and it can take any form that suits your business.

You can find event suggestions at www.truckweek.com.au, or have a look at some of the events below for more ideas. This is our chance to show Australia how trucking delivers and celebrate our great industry.
