Currently Mills Transport has 110 employees and follows a company restructure and sale of Brick & Paver division, including Burkes Haulage, the fleet is now 89 vehicles and 90 trailers.
The fleet is company-owned and presented in Mills or customer livery. A small group of sub-contractors are used to supplement capacity for a major contract and these have been selected where possible as they share the Company's values with respect to safety and service.

The fleet is maintained by the Company workshops, overseen by Joint Managing Director Kelvin Mills, who are also responsible for fleet selection and design.
