Deckert Transport - Horsham, VIC

About Us

Deckert Group is situated in Victoria, in the Wimmera region, north of Nhill.  We specialise in grain storage, transportation and marketing along with the sale of fertiliser, gypsum, lime and hay.

Pioneers

Deckert family ancestors travelled via wagon from South Australia in 1885, settling 30 kilometres North of Nhill in the Lorquon area.  The land was cleared by horse and hand, enabling grain crops to be sown – one of the proud activities to be continued some five generations later by what is now known as the Deckert Group.

Growing

Through strong principles of hard work, dedication and persistence, the Deckert Group now farms over 2000 hectares of land, owns and operates a fleet of trucks and provides a 50,000 tonne grain storage facility.  They offer a range of services to clients including grain storage, hay storage, transport, marketing as well as trading in fertiliser, gypsum, lime and hay.

Expansion

In 1995 the family worked together to operate a local grain storage facility for a grain buyer. Over the years, increased demand for services has prompted the Deckert Group to steadily grow the business, including opening a storage facility on the home property at Lorquon. Today, the facility comprises storage with a 50,000 tonne capacity, a 26 metre weigh bridge, fully equipped testing stand and a real-time computer based storage management platform - providing significant efficiencies for both receiving and out-loading. Deckert Group currently employs up to twenty staff from the local community.
