Community Support
Ethical business practices and social responsibility are at the core of our company. As the owners of Red Truck Roofing, we firmly believe that one of the greatest values every company should nurture, is the ability to give back to their staff and community. We know that cultivating a positive company culture and giving back go hand in hand.
Our giving strategy focuses on three sectors:
1. Our Staff & Crews;
Profit sharing with our staff means they have a vested interest in the company and gives us confidence that we know they are going to go the extra mile for our customers.
We also choose to support charities that our employees have a particular affinity with. By involving our employees, this further assists in helping to engage them in our company values.
2. Our Local Community; and
We believe businesses everywhere have the resources and reach to provide a positive impact in their communities. We are proud to partner with trusted organisations which do so much to strengthen our local community.

Orange Sky Laundry / Orange Sky Showers
Orange Sky Laundry is the world’s first free mobile laundry service for the homeless. A crazy idea in 2014 to put two washing machines and two dryers in a van and wash and dry clothes for free. Starting in the streets of Brisbane, Orange Sky has now grown to 10 services across Australia in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne, Sydney, Sunshine Coast, Canberra, Perth, Adelaide, SE Melbourne and Hobart.
Orange Sky Laundry now does over 6.9 tonnes of laundry every week. However most importantly, has over 1,300 hours of positive and genuine conversations every week.
The brand new orange sky showers van is custom fitted with 2 showers, self sufficient heating, water tanks and it will partner with our Orange Sky Laundry vans and other essential service providers to better connect the community.
Night Ninja’s – Supporting the Redland City Homeless Community
After meeting Alix Russo and hearing her story as to why she started the Night Ninja’s, we just had to come on board and help out.
Night Ninja’s Australia is a Not-For-Profit Organisation that focusses on helping people who are experiencing homelessness. They have crews of people who go out on the streets to provide essential items to those that need it most – food, blankets, clothing, toiletries and other essentials. They also offer referral assistance to organisations that can provide emergency housing and other forms of assistance.
Red Truck Roofing is so proud to be associated with Night Ninjas, and the wonderful, hard and emotional work they do each and every day!
Thank you Night Ninjas!
Redland Bay Men’s Shed
The Australian Mens Shed Association (AMSA) is a community-based organisation that is accessible to all whose primary activity is the provision of a safe, friendly & supportive environment.
Members are able to work on meaningful projects at their own pace, in their own time, and in the company of others. A key focus is to advance the well-being and health of its members & to encourage social inclusion.
After being given the opportunity to quote on the roof for the Redland Bay Men’s Shed, and winning the quote due to being the cheapest price, we thought it would be a fitting gesture to donate some much needed funds.

Redlands Animal Shelter
This year, Red Truck Roofing have been able to assist the shelter with, the purchase of gift vouchers from Pet Barn, for food, and also supplied winter coats for the shelter dogs.
Cassie was able to attend our Annual Donation Day with Karma, one of the rescue dogs awaiting adoption.
Redland City Council’s animal shelter provides a safe environment for homeless, lost or abandoned animals. Their lost and found animal service helps minimise the risk to our pets and any adverse impact on the community and the environment, by keeping lost animals off the streets.
Animals that are surrendered or impounded and not claimed by their owners are given a second chance to find a new family home through our adoption program.
They also run a volunteer program for people interested in offering their time to assist at the animal shelter.
