From dense city centres to remote coastal towns, every part of New Zealand presents unique challenges when it comes to vehicle transport and storage. Weather, traffic, ferry crossings, and geography all play a role in how vehicles are moved safely and efficiently.
OTS Group operates nationwide, with major bases in Auckland and Christchurch, ensuring consistent, professional service no matter where your vehicle starts or finishes its journey.
1. Auckland – Managing Urban Congestion & Volume
Auckland is New Zealand’s busiest transport hub, home to dense traffic and a high volume of dealership, fleet, and private vehicle movements. Efficient scheduling, GPS coordination, and local expertise are essential for minimising delays.
Our Auckland operations team uses multiple dispatch points across the region, enabling quick response times for emergency tows, intercity transport, and dealership transfers.
2. Christchurch – Supporting South Island Logistics
Christchurch serves as our South Island hub, supporting commercial, agricultural, and residential clients across Canterbury and Otago. Transport routes here often involve long rural drives and heavy machinery transfers, so reliability and communication are key.
From construction equipment transport to motorhome towing, our Christchurch-based team ensures South Island customers receive the same quality service as those in the North.
3. Inter-Island Transport – Connecting North & South
Many clients require transport between islands, whether for private vehicles, fleets, or marine craft. OTS Group coordinates inter-island transport using ferry-linked schedules, providing seamless intercity vehicle delivery across Cook Strait.
Our integrated system tracks vehicles end-to-end, so customers can monitor progress across both islands through a single point of contact.
4. Remote & Rural New Zealand – Distance & Access Challenges
In regions like Northland, the West Coast, or Central Otago, access roads can be narrow or unsealed, making recovery and delivery more complex. OTS Group’s long-distance towing fleet is designed for these conditions, with winch-equipped tilt trays and 4×4 recovery support vehicles.
We routinely service rural communities, farms, and industrial sites — ensuring that even the most remote customers receive reliable coverage.
5. Vehicle Storage Across Locations
Both our Auckland and Christchurch facilities offer secure storage for cars, machinery, and boats. Having dual depots allows faster coordination for inter-island movements and flexible space for corporate or seasonal storage.
Vehicles are held in monitored, access-controlled facilities — ideal for clients awaiting delivery, repair, or resale.
6. Weather & Seasonal Considerations
New Zealand’s weather patterns impact scheduling and safety, particularly during winter or storm seasons. Our dispatch teams monitor conditions daily, adjusting travel times and load procedures to maintain reliability and protect vehicles in transit.
Whether navigating Auckland’s rain-heavy months or Canterbury’s frosty mornings, every OTS Group operator is trained to adapt safely.
