45 minute inquiry.

This is the port of Tauranga It is 113.4 hectares and includes the logging industrie. The logging industrie takes in 63,000 logs per day and has 186 staff members. Logs are shipped from all around the world and delivered to places around New Zealand, Australia and even Asia. The logs that come into the port mainly come from the heneua forest.

Th logs collected are usually turned into building materials, fences and maintenance. But all the logs that are sent to kaurau get turned into paper or saw dust. The logs usually get to the port by trucks or trains.

To work as a Lumber jack for the port is a payment of 32.000 a year and a lot of hard work. But you could also work as a log truck driver or on the log trains. If you take this job you would more than likely travel around the country or maybe even the world!!

A lot of countries send us there logs to turn into paper, sawdust or building materials. This is because we have quite a big industrie and countries like Asia and Africa do not.
