Things you need to know when relocating to Australia

When you’re considering a move to Australia from NZ there’s a lot to think about. You will be making some big decisions and getting plenty of advice. At Ausmove we are the Trans-Tasman moving experts, here’s some things you need to know;

Sea Freight | Shipping to Australia

Did you know that shipping household goods to Australia isn’t expensive. It’s often less than moving within NZ. Although it may appear cheaper to ship small amounts, that’s not always the best option. That’s because the more you ship, the lower your overall cost by volume. If you sell off essential furniture before leaving, you also take a loss on what you sold and then must replace it with new!

Air Freight to OZ

Air freight is the quickest shipping method to Australia. Many customers use air freight and sea freight together. They send items in advance of the sea freight shipment. Typical reasons are to save on transit hotel costs, get nurseries set up, access sports equipment, and have their ‘tools of the trade’ ready to start work as soon as the plane lands.

Storage

Ausmove has a high quality MPI, and customs approved storage facility, right beside Auckland airport. Many customers engage us to initially pack and hold their goods in storage, before having them shipped at a later date. They have the flexibility to either have an extended holiday, apply for jobs in separate locations or visit Australia, before confirming exactly where they want to live.

Movers Insurance Cover

We want you to sleep well at night. No matter how careful we are there’s always the risk of loss or damage to your household goods, due to extreme weather, accidents, or other risk events during their journey. That’s why we recommend you consider one of our marine insurance options for your Trans-Tasman move. You are covered from the moment our packers arrive until everything is delivered in Australia.

Shipping Your Vehicle

If you are considering shipping your vehicle, van, or motorcycle to Australia, then you’ve come to the right place. Ausmove is an expert car shipping company. We will give you the most cost-effective options and also provide regulatory advice, and assistance with the documentation. The first thing is to decide if your vehicle is eligible and if the shipping, import taxes like luxury car tax and compliance costs make it worthwhile.

Moving Your Pets

We know that some of you wouldn’t dream of leaving our shores without taking the ‘whole’ family. If this is the case, you will probably have one or more four-legged friends moving with you. There’s a lot involved, and it’s a job for experts. That’s why Ausmove have teamed up with a leading international pet move specialist to provide a quality door-to-door service to nearly every postcode in Australia.
