FAQ · Hawke's Bay and the East Coast
Common questions, plain answers.
- Does Lazi work in Hawke's Bay and the East Coast?
- Yes — Covers Napier as the hub, plus Hastings, Gisborne, Wairoa and the wider Hawke's Bay and the East Coast catchment. Lazi is NZ-wide; the network's density grows with each new operator who joins, and Napier is part of that map.
- What corridors does Napier actually run?
- Common runs from Napier: Taupō (~110 km), Palmerston North (~150 km), Tauranga (~210 km). Lazi matches on equipment + route + timing, so the corridors that fire for your truck depend on what gear it carries and where it's heading next.
- How long until I get paid as a Napier carrier?
- Payouts land in your NZ bank account 48 hours after both parties confirm delivery. Same flow whether you're running out of Auckland or Invercargill — Stripe Connect handles the transfer, no invoicing.
