Outdoor and machinery combine in the one centre

Now there is one major centre that caters for all your outdoor small engine needs.

Dalby Outdoor and Machinery sells new equipment, spare parts and a full range of outdoor equipment for home garden or on-farm jobs.

Partners in the business, Pat and Shelley O'Brien and Timothy Deacon recently purchased Dalby Machinery Centre's spare parts and new machinery business.

Having previously purchased T.C. Motors, they merged the two creating the one business that sells and services an extensive range of motorised outdoor gear.

Pat said the aim of merging the two businesses was to provide a comprehensive range of quality products under the one roof.

"We chose these two well-established businesses for their quality of product and solid client base.

"Bringing the two together has produced a major, locally-owned centre that caters for all types of small and large machinery sales and parts.

"We stock the full range of Stihl products and act as agents for several machinery suppliers as well as being the distributor for Mobil oils and lubricants," Pat said.

The business has a well-equipped workshop offering full service on all small engines from spray equipment and pumps to whipper snippers and lawn mowers.

Pat has a rural background and his talents as a qualified mechanic earned him second placing in the Oceania division of the World Technician Grand Prix competition. Tim is a fully-qualified motorcycle and small motor mechanic.

There are seven staff working in administration, sales and servicing focused on delivering fast, efficient and friendly service to every customer.

"We want people to have the best service available," Pat said.
