Every truck in the AC98 fleet earns its place for what it can do — from oversized machinery moves to everyday aggregate runs.
The backbone of every big job
Excavator loaded, OVERSIZE signed, ready to roll
Structural steel and port freight
The T909 is AC98's lead unit — it's what moves your excavator, your structural steel, your oversized freight. It handles permit loads and pilot-escorted moves alongside everyday machinery transport, running Hawke's Bay, Gisborne, Auckland and the wider North Island.
Whether it's a single digger relocation or a complex load needing route planning and permits, this is the truck that gets the call — with Miles behind the wheel every time. With around 30 years of driving experience, Miles is the T909's dedicated driver on every load, so the same seasoned hands move your gear each trip.
Custom-built and impossible to miss — the Lonestar runs a matching tipper trailer combo with a hand-finished blue and silver flame paint job. It pulls its own weight on the day-to-day tipper work, and it's the truck that gets people talking wherever it turns up.
Owner-operated like the rest of the fleet, plated "AC TAXI" — ask Austin for the story behind that one.
Quote a JobThe T904 tipper runs aggregates, bulk materials and demolition waste across Hawke's Bay and beyond. Quarry-to-site aggregate runs, farm deliveries of lime, fertiliser and gravel for tracks, and civil bulk cartage — this is the truck that keeps sites and farms stocked and on schedule.
Ag season, winter, civil works — the T904 operates year-round, with the same driver and the same accountability every load.
Quote a Tipper JobThe International Eagle is a classic bonneted prime mover built for distance and heavy pulling. It's a go-to for oversized and overlength freight — structural steel, pipe and beams — as well as machinery on the low-loader, running the bigger interregional jobs across the North Island.
Chromed up and unmistakably AC98, the Eagle is a dependable workhorse that turns heads and gets the load there safely.
Quote a JobOur Kenworth cabover — known around the yard as the "104" — is a tidy, manoeuvrable unit that comes into its own on machinery transport and tighter-access jobs. The forward cab makes it nimble where a long bonnet won't fit.
Excavators, diggers and plant on the flat deck — the 104 gets in, loads up and gets your gear where it needs to be.
Quote a Machinery MoveOwner-operated means Austin's name is on every truck. They're serviced on schedule, not when it becomes urgent — because a breakdown on your job costs both of us.
We run newer trucks because they're more reliable, more fuel efficient and less likely to let anyone down. No patched-up old gear on serious jobs.
Our equipment is purpose-configured for heavy haulage — proper tie-down points, appropriate trailer configurations and the right rated hardware.
