Long Distance Moving FAQs
How much does a long distance move cost in NZ?
Long-distance moves are priced on volume and distance rather than hours. Auckland to Wellington for a 3-bedroom typically runs $3,500–$5,500; the video survey turns that into a binding number.
Is the long distance quote fixed?
Yes. After the video survey we issue a binding price. The only thing that changes it is a change to your inventory or access that you tell us about.
How long does delivery take?
North Island city-to-city is usually next day. Interisland and South Island deliveries run on a two to four day window, confirmed in your quote.
Do you handle the Cook Strait ferry?
Yes — the sailing, the booking and the paperwork are all included in your fixed price.
