The driving force –both literally and figuratively speaking! – behind the operation, Sean Devane established Devane Haulage in 2001. For six years prior to that, he had worked in England, providing haulage solutions on various construction projects. Upon returning to Ireland, he started off with a modest operation and gradually built up his fleet and extended the range of services provided. Initially, subcontract work was secured on the M6 motorway as well as other road construction jobs such as the Portlaoise and Ennis bypasses, the N59, the Casla Water Works Scheme, Mutton Island and Garda HQ in Renard. At the same time, Sean was also offering keen haulage solutions. Meanwhile, the acquisition of the 50-tonne-per-metre crane – mounted on a DAF truck – opened a lot of new doors and saw Devane Haulage secure work both nationally and internationally lifting and transports boats, machinery, containers, offices units etc. Sean even had the distinction of working for the Irish film industry! Down through the years, he has supplied machinery, raw materials and expertise to a number of large and small construction projects
ver the past decade and a half, Devane Haulage has established itself as one of the most professional and flexible haulage companies operating in the west of Ireland, providing a wide range of services including haulage, crane hire, plant and grab hire, quarry runs and lowloader services. Fully licenced and with a waste permit for Connacht, the County Galway based company boasts an impressive fleet of 8x4 tippers as well as flat crane trucks, lowloaders, grab trucks and clamp shell trucks.
