The Tassie Truckies Memorial Wall was launched on Sunday.

Hundreds of friends and families of truckers who have died during duty were there to witness the occasion.

Epping Forest Roadhouse co-owner Michael Geeves said he commended the professionalism and dedication of the memorial's committee group.

"We didn't physically have much to do with it, we were just the conduit for the land — it's a wonderful thing to have and I believe it's the ideal spot for it," Mr Geeves said.

"It's a great reminder for what keeps Tasmania going, at the end of the day we have the lifestyle we have because of goods and services."

He said the business saw hundreds of truck drivers stop each day, many of whom became known on a first-name basis.

"We believe it's such a recognisable spot for the trucking industry and it's highly visual," Mr Geeves said.

"It's a reminder to them of the perils that can lay ahead in unforeseen circumstances."

The wall committee, headed by president Tristan Cass, worked for about four years to establish the memorial.
