Household

Household Shipping

We offer household relocation by air and by sea, to port and to door, to most places in the world.

Air and Sea Freight
The cost of sea freight is volume based whereas airfreight is on weight as well as volume. The airline calculation for volumetric weight for air cargo is 167kgs per cubm.

Household Shipments
Most household shipments we recommend to go by sea, as they are handled better and, due to their volume, are more cost effective this way. Please complete our quotation form and we will happily provide you with a quote.

Packing
We recommend our professional packing service which, in most central regions, is performed in your home. Please see our section on packing below for full information.

Storage
Storage can be arranged through us and usually proves to be far cheaper to discuss your requirements and leave your possessions in New Zealand rather than have them arrive too early at your destination.

Moving to Australia
Remember special care must be taken when moving to Australia. Please ensure that your effects are clean of dirt and bugs etc. Please have a look at our link to Australian quarantine for tips, although our staff will assist you on packing.

We have also put together a great pre-move checklist to help you make sure everything is in order before and after your move.

Thank you for that good service. I shall recommend you to other mates.
