Nationwide haulage from the Midlands. Rigid, articulated, HiAb and specialist transport across every county in Ireland and into the UK.
Kirwan Haulage has operated out of Mountrath, Co. Laois since 1979. Our base sits at the crossroads of the Irish motorway network - the M7/M8 split is on our doorstep, which puts Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick and the North-East all inside a few hours of running time. That midlands geography is the reason we can offer genuine nationwide coverage without treating distant counties as a premium add-on. If a customer in Donegal needs a same-week delivery, we are not routing it off a Dublin yard at 3am.
Three decades in, our remit covers all 32 counties and regular cross-border work to the UK. The fleet mixes rigid trucks for sensitive urban deliveries with articulated tractor units for long-haul volume, and every driver is trained across multiple disciplines. Alongside general haulage we run crane-equipped trucks for HiAb lifts, handle abnormal loads under full Garda and Transport Infrastructure Ireland permits, and complete full machine installation projects where the truck is only step one of the job.
Triple ISO certification (9001, 14001 and 45001) means every region we serve gets the same documented standards. Our drivers carry CPC qualifications, and where the work requires it they hold ADR tickets for hazardous goods and specialist training for plant and precision lifts. The vehicles are tracked live, the paperwork is digital, and the same dispatcher who books your collection in Wexford is the one who confirms delivery in Derry. Continuity matters when cargo has a deadline.
The section below breaks our coverage down by province. Each regional hub page lists the counties served, the typical industries we run for in that area and the mix of vehicles deployed. If you are not sure which region fits your route, our dispatch team will sort it - we route jobs, not postcodes.
Three things hold our regional coverage together. None of them are outsourced.
Every job is planned by dispatch from our Mountrath office. We do not hand regional work to third-party sub-contractors. That means one point of contact, one invoice and one set of ISO-documented procedures across every region you see on this page.
Rigid trucks for town-centre and farm deliveries where access is tight. Articulated units for long-haul volume and port work. HiAb-mounted trucks for self-loading and awkward placement. The right vehicle goes to the right region, not whatever is closest to the yard.
Our drivers are full-time employees, not agency. They carry CPC qualifications and, where required, ADR tickets, machine installation training, crane operator certs and Safe Pass. The same driver who delivers your load in Galway on Monday can be in Dublin on Tuesday. No handoffs, no relay.
Ten regional hubs covering every county in Ireland, plus cross-border routes to the UK.

Galway haulage servicesA long haul that we run regularly - Letterkenny, Ballybofey and the far North-West, including cross-border routing via Derry where it makes sense. One of the few midlands-based fleets that treats Donegal as a core region, not an exception.
