Delighted with its initial purchase of Jetland loading ramps, Victorian-based Breck Con Excavations has come back to procure a second set.
Having grown up in and around heavy machinery from a young age, Luke Breckon of Breck Con Excavations was destined to start up his own business.
With his father owning various types of earthmoving equipment and trucks, Luke is following that path with his own machinery fleet, including 1.7-tonne and 5t excavators, a compact track loader and two tipper trucks.
Since establishing Breck Con Excavations around five years ago as the owner and operator, Luke has been carrying out a host of earthmoving services, such as site cuts and foundational digging.
Based in Melbourne’s Mornington Peninsula, Luke operates across the city’s southeastern suburbs, meaning safe transportation of his machinery fleet is essential.
For that reason, Luke relies on Jetland’s high-quality and heavy-duty loading ramps, which give him the confidence to safely load and unload his equipment.
The positive relationship with the Australian-owned loading ramp supplier has been in place since the inception of Breck Con, when Luke only had one tipper truck and one machine.
Looking to acquire a set of loading ramps, Luke says Jetland’s warehouse location — also based in Melbourne’s southeast in Mordialloc — meant that it would be the perfect partner for his company.
“This thinking was only reinforced by Jetland owner Jimmy Fang, who made the process easy,” he said.
“When I was looking around the loading ramp market, Jimmy was really good to deal with.
“The price point was appealing, and the ramps were ready to go at the warehouse.”
Because of this, there was no waiting period for the ramps to be made or imported, so Luke could get straight to work without losing valuable time.
Of course, while Breck Con Excavations has benefited from the proximity, other businesses across Australia do not share the same convenience.
To help cater to them, Jetland will soon be expanding with a new Brisbane facility to reduce delivery times.
The new warehouse is expected to open around November, helping to better serve customers along the East Coast.
This is complemented by the business’ free delivery across Australia policy, which helps to make the purchasing process hassle-free.
There are various features on Jetland’s loading ramps that have not only increased safety for Luke but also the efficiency of his business.
Anti-slip surfaces ensure maximum traction for his machinery during loading and unloading, while specially designed and tested locking pins eliminate the chance of the ramps moving once locked.
“I don’t have my own workforce, so I jump in between all the different gear,” Luke said. “The ramps have increased the safety aspect for me, and I can rely on them as they’re a quality build.”
Back for more
Having been left impressed with his overall experience using the Jetland loading ramps, Luke has since procured a second set for his other tipper truck.
Instead of using one set of ramps that would have to be changed depending on the truck used, having two sets of ramps means Luke wastes no time when transporting machinery.
“Jetland’s ramps have been awesome in helping to get my machines up and off the trucks with increased safety,” he said.
“Jimmy always looks after me, so the aftersales experience has also been really positive.”
Like many other Jetland customers, Luke was spoilt for choice when deciding on what set of ramps to purchase, as the business offers a comprehensive range in various sizes.
The standard range of Jetland ramps includes the A-Series, suitable for 2-6t rubber track machines that are between 2.5m and 4.5m in length; the B-Series, catering for rubber track and rubber tyre machines with a 2-6t load capacity and between 1.8m and 4.8m in length; and the C-Series, which are designed for both rubber track and rubber tyre machines with 4-21t load capacities that are between 2.5m and 4.5m in length.
Designed for larger equipment, Jetland also offers its D-Series ramps that are suitable for loading and unloading machines and attachment packages of up to 42t, which are between 2.5m and 4.5m in length.
In addition to the standard range, Jetland can build custom ramps to suit any needs or application.
All Jetland ramps are backed by a 12-month warranty, giving users additional peace of mind and confidence in their purchase.
