Our History

Merkanooka Haulage was born when owner James Yewers saw an opportunity to expand his family’s farming business, specifically the use of trucks to transport crops, to the mining industry.

An innovator and entrepreneur at heart, James Yewers seized an opportunity to expand his family’s farming business in 2011 by establishing a haulage agreement to transport iron ore from the nearby Karara Mine to Geraldton Port.

This saw their haulage portfolio span two of the largest industries in Western Australia, Farming and Mining, and the origin of Merkanooka Haulage. Since then, James has significantly expanded his fleet of heavy vehicles and trailers, appointed an experienced team and now services a multitude of mining and agricultural clients 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
