Make confident pricing decisions with the Transporting New Zealand Cost Index — the only independent cost movement guide dedicated solely to the road freight industry.
Available via exclusive member-only website access, this Index tracks cost shifts across six critical areas: fuel, Road User Charges (RUCs), wages and salaries, depreciation and interest, overheads, and repairs and maintenance.
The index is prepared by Grant Thornton New Zealand, a nationally recognised accounting and advisory firm, and updated quarterly to reflect real-world cost movements. (note: Each update reflects the previous quarter — for example, December quarter data is published in March.)
Whether you’re renegotiating rates or reviewing your pricing model, the Index provides transparent, data-backed insights to help you align your pricing with market conditions. At a time when many operators are under financial and operational pressure, this tool supports smarter, more efficient business decisions.
An annual subscription provides full website access from 1 July to 30 June, including all quarterly updates released during that period — plus access to previous cost index reports for reference and comparison.
