About Green’s Diesel Service

Green’s Diesel Service is a locally owned and operated business based in Cloncurry, Queensland. We specialise in maintenance, repairs, and rebuilds of heavy earthmoving and mining equipment, ranging from field service work to major component rebuilds and full equipment demobilisation and mobilisation projects.
