The acquisition brings together two established businesses with complementary expertise, enabling Lift N Shift to broaden its range of transport and heavy haulage services while enhancing its ability to meet evolving customer requirements.

As part of the transition, Lift N Shift acknowledged the contribution of Peter and Jenny McIntyre, who built Waimea Heavy Haulage into a well-established business with a strong reputation, a modern fleet of vehicles and a loyal customer base. The company said it intends to build on this foundation while maintaining the high standards of service for which Waimea Heavy Haulage is recognised.

According to Lift N Shift, feedback from customers highlighted growing demand for specialised transport equipment, including widening trailers. The acquisition will enable the company to meet this demand by expanding its fleet and strengthening its service offering across the heavy haulage sector.

The acquisition also includes the integration of the Waimea Heavy Haulage workforce into Lift N Shift. The company said the team’s industry experience and technical expertise will further enhance its operational capabilities and customer service.

To ensure continuity, Mark will remain responsible for the day-to-day management of Waimea Heavy Haulage’s operations. Lift N Shift said his ongoing leadership will help provide a seamless transition for customers and employees while maintaining the level of service the business has established over the years.

The company described the acquisition as an important milestone in its growth strategy, creating opportunities to expand its customer base while continuing to support long-standing clients with safe, reliable and professional transport solutions.
