BMG No Longer Sell Volvo Parts

As of 1 January 2023, Highway Tractor Spares (https://htspares.com.au/) has taken over our Volvo Aftermarket & Used Parts business. All our Blumaq and used Volvo parts which are currently in stock will continue to be available from our Forest Glen warehouse, but going forward you will also benefit from HTS’ expanded product range and geographical footprint (Dandenong, Rockhampton). BMG will continue to stock and distribute the full range of Hydrema parts.

Going forward, please direct all sales enquiries for Volvo Aftermarket and Used Parts to HTS on 03 9794 5355. Any enquiries direct to us for these parts (07 5445 4433, Ext 1) will be automatically re-directed to HTS. However, please note that this re-direction will be phased out later in 2023.

If you would like to order any Hydrema parts, please continue to contact us direct on 07 5445 4433, Ext 2.
