12/11/2024
Expert Trucks is Ireland’s leading supplier of new truck and trailer parts. Based in Williamstown, Co. Galway, the company offers an unrivalled service which will have your vehicle back on the road in double-quick time.
A one-stop shop for all your truck and trailer needs, Expert Trucks is a family-owned and operated business with an unwavering commitment to trucks and their owners. The company was founded in 2017 by Padraig Smyth and has earned an enviable reputation for supplying premium parts for all makes of trucks, including Volvo, Renault, DAF, Scania, MAN, Mercedes-Benz, Iveco and Hino along with trailer models such as SAF Holland, BPW, Schmitz Cargobull, Gigant, VDL, Granning, JOST, Hendrickson and VDL.
Expert Trucks takes immense pride in being a reliable and dynamic stockist of a wide range of new truck and trailer parts. The parts specialist’s dedication to excellence is underlined by the fact that it only stocks OE and OEM products from top brands such as TRW, Valeo, Dinex and Sachs to name but a few.
A qualified Volvo truck mechanic who has been around trucks all his life, Padraig and his expert team have a wealth of experience in the industry and therefore understand what the customer wants. They aim to provide the product with hassle-free interactions and a swift delivery from their vans serving all of Ireland, or a next-day delivery courier service. Expert Trucks’ collection of new truck and trailer parts is carefully curated by the team to ensure durability, performance and compatibility.
“We’re going from strength to strength,” Padraig proudly states. “I always had an interest in importing parts and selling them which led to me setting up this company seven years ago. We’ve grown to employ 26 people – including my father Martin – and have eight vans on the road providing a next-day delivery service. We have 45,000 different parts numbers in stock at our Williamstown premises which consists of a trade counter, large warehouse and office.
“We have genuine, quality parts for all makes of trucks and trailers. Our suppliers are from all over Europe, while our clients are a mix of transport, quarrying and recycling companies. . . anyone with a lorry really,” he adds. Recently, Expert Trucks launched a brand-new website, www.experttrucks.ie, which is easy to navigate and allows you to view, select and order parts online. There is also a ‘Deal of the Week’ segment on selected parts.
“There has been a great reaction to the new website which is bringing in a lot of extra business,” enthuses Padraig, who is an old head on young shoulders. Expert Trucks uses the latest technology to provide a fast and efficient parts selection. Downtime costs money, which is why, when it comes to parts, rapid availability is everything. Whether you need parts for a single vehicle or an entire fleet of trucks, the company has the resources, experience and expertise to offer a quick solution.
“We pride ourselves on having the part you need when you need it, and being a reliable, efficient and friendly service that you can count on. We continue to attract new customers through word of mouth and referrals from existing clients. We will never see anyone stuck,” the affable managing director continues.
“Having trained as a Volvo truck mechanic, I can provide customers with advice on which parts they need or any other relevant information.
“Our winning formula is that we know the product and can help diagnose the problem. We can identify the right part, source and supply it. We have access to all the relevant data needed and are ready and willing to help out in any way possible. New products are added to the line and online shop every week to give our customers even greater choice and keep us ahead of the game.”
Expert Trucks is a sister company of Expert Trucks Exporting which is focused on supplying trucks and trailers for worldwide export. The Expert Trucks Exporting team are committed to helping customers find the right vehicle to suit their needs and budget. All of their trucks are right-hand drive with Volvo, Scania, DAF and Renault among the brands they stock.
“We source good quality used trucks from Ireland and the UK, and export them by container or ro-ro to customers in Asia and Africa. Similar to the parts
division, the export side of the business is going well.”
Padraig would like to take this opportunity to thank his clients and suppliers for their continued support as well as his staff for their hard work, dedication and skill.
Opening hours in Williamstown are 8am to 6pm Monday-Friday and 9am to 1pm on Saturdays.
