Wondering why the Hurricanes teamed up with Handy Rentals?

It's their shared Kiwi ethos! The Hurricanes appreciate a partner who values New Zealanders the way they do. Handy Rentals, like the team, prioritises community and reliable service. Handy's trusted moving vans aren't just practical for moving house—they also ensure team gear travels perfectly across venues.

With over 30 years in the rental industry focusing on quality and convenience, Handy proudly stands beside the Hurricanes journeying together across NZ. 🌬️🏉

Ever wondered about gene-edited milk and what Kiwis think about it? A recent study reveals New Zealanders are more open to the idea than you might think.

Consumers were asked to choose between different types of milk, including gene-edited options that might relieve allergies or protect against Covid-19. The results? Lower prices and clear benefits are key factors in their willingness to try.

Much like how Handy Rentals simplifies your moving experience with our easy-to-handle vehicles, understanding the nuances in choices can simplify your dairy decisions. Discover more in the NZ Herald article, "Would you buy milk from a gene-edited cow?".
