One man’s passion started it all.
Invercargill businessman Bill Richardson loved trucks: so much so, he made them both his life’s work and his hobby.
Southern tourism hub Transport World began after Bill’s daughter, Joc O’Donnell, decided to open his private collection to the public in late 2015 as Bill Richardson Transport World.
The largest private collection of its type in the world, Bill Richardson Transport World is home to more than 300 vehicles, a wearable arts collection, children’s play zones, The Grille cafe and themed bathrooms fast becoming as famous as our vehicles. There is something for everyone.
Open 10am to 5pm daily (last entry 4pm, excluding Christmas Day and Boxing Day).

What To Expect
Bill Richardson Transport World
Gold Qualmark product. The largest privately owned collection of its type, in the world. Transport World is 15,000 square feet (the size of an entire city block), with something for everyone to enjoy. It has over 300 vehicles, over 150 petrol pumps, a wearable arts display, a movie theatre, themed toilets and much more to explore. Bill Richardson was the man behind the wheel and his legacy lives on in the museum. There is a lot of family history behind the museum and set pieces. I would recommend Guided Tours are the best way for visitors to experience the collection. Guided Tours last for one hour and then there is free exploration afterwards.
