Handling
Containers
Container handling equipment includes two Liebherr Mobile
Harbour Cranes and a forklift fleet ranging in capacity from 4 tonnes
to 40 tonnes. Up to 750 reefer containers can be on power and monitored
at any time. A Navis SPARCS tracking and ship planning system with
EDI facility operates at the container yard.
Breakbulk and project cargoes
The port has particular skills in handling breakbulk and
project cargoes. Large/awkward loads are regularly handled at the
North Mole for delivery throughout the central South Island. Timaru's
central location on the east coast and excellent road/rail access
with no restrictive tunnels makes for easy handling of difficult
consignments.
Bulk
Grain & Seeds
Ten silos, totalling 19,500 tonnes grain capacity are linked
to a 700t/hr conveyor loading system serving No. 2 North Wharf.
A weighbridge and additional independent grain storage are available
nearby.
Bulk
Liquids
Independent facilities exist for the storage & distribution
of fuels, Bitumen, molasses, bulk chemicals and vegetable oils.
Timaru is also the major South Island export port for bulk tallow.
Fish
Timaru is New Zealand's second largest fishing port. There
are two major processing plants adjacent to the Fish Harbour.

Land
The
Port of Timaru has 93 hectares of flat land adjacent to it, more
than any other New Zealand port. Of this, port operations occupy
17 hectares, 4 hectares are owner occupied, 18 hectares are leased
or rented, which with 30 hectares of common roading or access reserve
leaves 24 hectares for either development or tenanting. Within this
latter category the port has 20 hectares of bare land available
to third party developers for storage, distribution or processing
facilities.
Included
in the land available for commercial development are a number of
prime harbourside sites at Evans Bay with potential for the establishment
of adjacent deep water berths.
