Handy Rentals Partners with the Hurricanes for the 2026 Season

We’re stoked to officially announce that Handy Rentals is now an official partner of the Hurricanes 🌀

As a 100% New Zealand owned and operated business, this partnership is something we’re genuinely proud of. Supporting local teams, organisations, and communities has been part of the Handy Rentals DNA since day one – so teaming up with one of Wellington’s most iconic sporting franchises just felt right.

A Natural Fit

Established back in 1989, Handy Rentals has a long history of backing grassroots sport, local events, and community initiatives across Aotearoa. Partnering with the Hurricanes is a natural extension of that commitment.

“The Hurricanes partnership is a perfect fit, allowing Handy Rentals to continue supporting the local community in a meaningful way and giving back through sport,”
– Joe McCarthy, Marketing & Design Manager, Handy Rentals

Keeping the Hurricanes Moving

As part of the partnership, Handy Rentals will be supporting the Hurricanes’ operational and logistical needs throughout the season. That means our trucks and vans will play a behind-the-scenes role in helping transport team equipment efficiently – keeping match days and training running smoothly.

“We’re especially excited to see our vehicles become a key part of the Hurricanes’ logistics. It’s a great way for us to support the team while also creating opportunities to give back to the wider community,” Joe added.
