History

Toll was founded by Albert Toll in 1888 as a coal haulage business in Newcastle, Australia--hauling coal with horse and cart. At the time of Albert Toll's death in 1958 at the age of 95, he was operating a fleet of trucks in five locations.

In 1959 the Toll business was purchased by National Minerals. In 1962 it became part of mining conglomerate Peko Wallsend, which used Toll for all its transport activities. Under Peko Wallsend, Toll was developed into a national carrier. The company subsequently underwent a name change to Toll-Chadwick, and its new owners sought to integrate its businesses and expand into containerised shipping. By the mid-1980s, Toll-Chadwick had grown into one of Australia's biggest transport operations outside the capital cities.

In 1986 Toll was sold to a management buyout team led by Managing Director Paul Little , Executive Director Mark Rowsthorn and Toll's first Chairman Peter Rowsthorn. In 1993 Toll listed on the ASX.

In 2010 Toll commenced the One Toll Program which integrated operations under the One Toll umbrella. Externally the program drove the common external appearance and branding, and internally it drove common processes, culture and values.

In February 2015, Japan Post, the state-owned postal service operator, made a A$6.5 billion cash takeover bid for the company, an offer Toll's board unanimously recommended. The transaction was completed in May 2015. On April 25, 2017, Japan Post Holdings said it would have a Y40bn ($360m) loss for its first full financial year as a listed company, due to losses from Toll Holdings, which it controversially acquired in 2015.
