Whanganui Mainfreight's office staff have gone all out to show they appreciate their colleagues behind the wheel.
Nationwide the freight and logistics company last week put on a "driver appreciation week" and in Whanganui branch manager Vanessa Johnson said her office tried to surprise its six drivers with kind acts.
The Whanganui office was decorated in glittery blue streamers, bunting and balloons and a table in the office was well stocked with chocolate biscuits and a jar of lollies.
The office staff had been dressing up, cleaning the truck drivers' personal vehicles, polished their boots and made care packages to go inside trucks.
Where they could staff were taking jobs off drivers' hands to free up their time.
