Mainland Driving School Timaru
Mainland Driving School’s Timaru branch as been in operation since July 2021 after ProDriver closed their doors after 17 years.
We have been fortunate to have kept on ProDriver’s Pam Burbery as the Office Administrator, whilst also building a great team of local trainers – see below to meet our Timaru team.
We have our own Class 2 and 4 trucks and a forklift on site.
Areas Covered
The Timaru branch of Mainland Driving School is based at 22 Sheffield Road in Washdyke (the same premises that ProDriver operated from).
Our Timaru-based team can also run courses at your own workplace, covering anywhere mid- to South Canterbury, including the Mackenzie country, and as far south as North Otago.
For the rest of Otago and the lower South Island, our Dunedin branch can help, please email [email protected] or call 03 242 9191.
For the Christchurch, north Canterbury and West Coast, please contact our Christchurch branch
