TR Group promotes Women in Transport
New Zealand has always pioneered equality between men and women and a prime example is our country being the first in the world to give women the right to vote. Fast forward to 2018 and there’s no doubt that society’s progressed further towards equality. However, the transport industry still has a reputation for being a “man’s world”. Slowly but surely, we’ve improved and evolv ...

TR Group rental - everyday's a new day.
It’s been nearly a decade since I joined the TR rental team and all those years have led to a great career with a great team, with a great company. Ten years isn’t a short time, so you may be wondering, how anyone, really, could possibly stay in one company for this long. Well first, a love for trucks is the main fuel to the fire. There are so many reasons why I love what I do ...

TRym: The gym that brings people closer together.
Focusing on health and fitness is becoming more and more important and a number of businesses have built fitness areas and gyms for their staff to use. In most cases, having a gym at the workplace is simply useful and convenient for its employees, but what makes TR Group’s gym, or TRym as we call it, different is how it came to be and what it contributes to the company. It’s mo ...

Teaching good habits from an early age
Habits are easier to form in children especially when they learn how to continue to do these things as they grow up. You don’t have to be behind the wheel to start forming the habits of being a cautious and responsible pedestrian. If you learn these as a child, it will be easier for you to relate to pedestrians and other drivers when you start to drive. This is what the Safety ...

Transformed by Technology
TR Group was founded in 1992 and 11 years later we installed our first fleet management and accountancy software to help the business keep pace with its growth. We believe that to become better at what we do, we need to continuously improve and adjust to the times. We can’t keep using horses when cars are available. But why stop there? From the beginning, TR Group has always be ...

Auckland Rescue Helicopter services h ...

So even with 12 branches, nationwide, these values are reflected by each and every team member no matter where they are in the country or in the world. In April, Weedons School held their annual Year 7 Camp, which saw 24 children and 7 adults pushed well out of their comfort zone. Making sure everyone ha ...
