George Gitsham & Sons
Kilkenny, South Australia

    The refuse trucks on this page are from a 1971 Gitsham sales bulletin. The company has long been involved in truck equipment in Australia, and by the mid-1970s was the distributor for Heil refuse bodies on the continent. Gitsham is still in business, but no longer handles refuse truck bodies.
