    It's the most efficient way to shift shipping containers from the major ports (Auckland and Tauranga) to where they are needed elsewhere in the country. Certain shipping outfits are not calling into the south Island at all on some services now I'm told, so the ability to efficiently send cans south and north is required as we don't have a coastal shipping outfit that is fully operating.
