Kempton Park surrounds OR Tambo International Airport, and much of its commercial vehicle traffic is tied to it. Cargo handlers, couriers, clearing agents, caterers and transport companies run fleets from the Isando industrial area and the business parks near the airport, and the R21, N12 and the roads around them connect these fleets to Johannesburg, Pretoria and the East Rand.
We serve Kempton Park as part of our direct Gauteng service from Rivonia, Sandton. Vehicles can be brought in or installed on site, subject to location, project size, site conditions and scheduling.
Isando and the airport zone
Isando is a long-established industrial area, and warehouses and trucking depots surround the airport. Fleets here move freight on short, frequent trips: from the cargo terminals to warehouses, between depots and out to customers. Rigid trucks, light and medium trucks and panel vans are common, and visibility on busy access roads matters.
Large side lettering, plain colour backgrounds and bold fleet numbers work well on fleets that must be recognised quickly at a gate or loading bay.
Couriers, caterers and cold chain
Typical vehicles in the area include:
- Courier vans and parcel vehicles working multi-drop routes
- Refrigerated vans and trucks for airline caterers and fresh produce
- Ground-handling and shuttle vehicles that carry staff between terminals and depots
- Tautliners and flat-deck trucks moving import and export freight
- Vans and bakkies for equipment suppliers and aviation service companies
Airport and access rules
Vehicles that enter airport precincts or restricted zones may have to follow rules set by the airport or the operator for identification and markings. We cannot say what applies to your vehicle, so ask your site contact and send us any requirements before artwork is approved. For emergency, security and similar vehicles, markings must follow the applicable vehicle and sector requirements.
Night operations and shift work
Airport-related fleets often run around the clock, with vehicles moving at night when flights arrive. Reflective elements, plain bold lettering and large fleet numbers make vehicles easy to identify under yard lighting and in headlights. Where drivers are assigned to specific vehicles, numbers also help dispatchers.
Plan installation outside peak periods where possible, and tell us when your vehicles are least busy.
On-site work in Kempton Park
Many Kempton Park depots have yards or workshops where we can install, subject to site conditions. The advantage is that vehicles stay close to where they work. We confirm the plan at quotation, and can batch vehicles so the fleet stays operational. See the courier and delivery vehicle branding page for more.
Warranties depend on the material and application and are confirmed on your quotation.
