From the Driver's Seat: Canterbury Farm Delivery

RD Petroleum fuel tanker on a rural Canterbury property with pigs walking past the wheels

Every Thursday, we're handing the camera over to the people who know our roads best, our drivers. Each week one of the team sends in their favourite shot from a delivery, and we share it here along with a bit about where it was taken and what they were up to.

This week's shot comes from Steven, out on a rural delivery in Canterbury.

Driver: Steven

Route/Location: Rural property, Canterbury

Delivery: Diesel

Steven had just pulled the tanker in for a diesel delivery when he got some unexpected company, a couple of the local pigs wandered over for a closer look, clearly more interested in the wheels than the fuel. It's one of the small moments that makes rural delivery runs what they are: no two stops look the same, and sometimes the locals are the four-legged kind.

Deliveries like this one are a good reminder of how far our reach goes, from farms and rural properties to town centres and everything in between, keeping Canterbury running.
