Axis-Intermodal web functionalities to be integrated with POAL

With the phasing out of Ports of Auckland's Axis Intermodal brand all Axis-Intermodal web functionalities are being integrated with the Ports of Auckland website - www.poal.co.nz.

This change is being brought about to avoid duplication in costs and to focus on building the Port’s future around a single brand. It is also in response to feedback that shows that most of our customers identify more strongly with the Ports of Auckland brand.

Any customer related information or services can now be accessed via the Ports of Auckland website, www.poal.co.nz.

SeaPACK demolition

Ports of Auckland's SeaPACK has moved 20 metres to a newer shed with office facilities remaining at its current location.

Demolition of the old SeaPACK shed began on Wednesday 28 July and will be completed by the end of August.

Once the demolition is complete, the area will be paved to make way for the new extended Empty Depot.

For enquiries please contact Yvonne Theuerkauf.

Accounts Receivable Update

A new combined billing system for Fergusson and Bledisloe terminals is now in place.

With this new system, you will now receive a single invoice each for Vehicle Booking and Demurrage charges.

As a further improvement to our invoice delivery, we are now able to email your invoices to you. To opt for electronic invoices, please email your accounts receivable email address to POAL at electronicinvoices@poal.co.nz.
