NZ Trucking Show Doubles In Size - Boom!

NZ Trucking Show Doubles In Size - Boom!

TMC Trailers Ltd Trucking 2016 has expanded. Due to demand for trade space and working displays the organisers have had to extend the show area to take in all the grass beside the tarmac. Extra trade space has also been created after redesigning the inside area.

Saturday October 8th 2016 at Wigram Air Force Museum, Christchurch 9.30am-5.00pm

For one day the trucking industry is opening their doors. Everyone is welcome! Lining up to show off their bling are the show & shine trucks. These are working trucks that make sure our goods get from A to B. Trade display stands from suppliers and companies that sell to truckies, show off their latest equipment, technology and supplies. Trade exhibitors are getting ready to meet up with their existing customers and meet new ones. Buying decisions are made on the day because there is no panic to be anywhere; operators and drivers are there for the day.

Some space and sponsorships are still available.

Entry is by minimum Gold coin per person and proceeds go to Ronald McDonald House SI and Child Cancer Canterbury, along with smaller charities on the day.

New to the show is the KIDS ZONE. This includes a scooter road way and a giant sandpit built by Heavy Trucks Christchurch.

Careers Hub is a great place to visit, to see what jobs are vacant and information on how to get into the trucking industry. Find out the training options that are available.
