Christchurch-BASED trailer manufacturer TMC has opened a new truck and trailer service and repair facility in Horotiu, Hamilton.
The centrepiece of the purposebuilt complex is a 1400 square metre building which offers drivethrough service bays, a 24m CoF inspection pit and two five tonne gantry cranes. 
As well as being able to provide CoF and VCA inspections, the TMC team will be undertaking repairs and servicing on all makes and models of truck decks and trailers. LT400 certification of repairs is available onsite, while the complex has extensive parking for trucks and trailers.
Along with TMC’s existing Auckland and Christchurch service centres, the Horotiu operation is able to provide a complete range of engineering and service work as well as CoF/VCA inspections – providing a one-stop shop for operators.
TMC director Richard Currie says he’s excited to see the new facility in operation: “With easy access just off the Waikato Expressway and close to the Ports of Auckland Waikato freight hub, its location is ideal to help support our growing North Island customer base.
“Along with our Auckland and Christchurch workshops, it means we are now able to provide the best customer backup and support of any trailer manufacturer in New Zealand.”
