[names removed by Sirelo] and the team at Container Relocations did an amazing job moving us from Nelson to Auckland! They provide a very professional and friendly service, and my wife and I were very impressed. As someone new to container moves I had lots of questions about various aspects of the move, and the team were always quick to respond by email, text, or phone. The process was very transparent and easy to understand. The price was considerably cheaper than the other options available, but there were no corners cut in the service they provided. I estimate that the move cost about half of what it would have done with many of their competitors. While they did have insurance available at a good price, we found that our regular AMI house contents insurance extended to the move as well so we didn’t need any extra.
The container was clean and tidy, with an enormous stack of blankets to wrap up our goods. The size of the container is deceptively large – it seems small when e
mpty but we managed to get pretty much all of our three bedroom house into it, including fridge, washing machine, bicycles, beds, etc. The container was dropped off professionally right in front of our house and carefully picked up. We have a lot of precious family antiques and valuables, some very fragile items that have been with us a long time. Nothing what broken in the move; they were very careful at every stage.
The whole process took a very short time and we were able to track the shipment throughout its journey north. We chose the rail move which was only slightly more expensive than by sea but was much faster. This is the preferred option for sure. The container was picked up on a Thursday, was in Auckland by Friday, and we moved in on a Tuesday morning. The two movers who unloaded our container in Auckland were efficient and friendly. They unloaded our possessions carefully and quickly and put everything in the house where it was supposed to go. I highly recommend container relocations for anyone contemplating a house move!Read more
