Cost-effective Secure Storage

Whether you’re just thinking about moving to Australia, or 100% sure of your plans, Ausmove has plenty of cost effective and common-sense options for you to consider. These include;

• You may be moving to Australia, with the intention of returning after a fixed period. If you prefer a portion of your household goods to stay in New Zealand while you’re away, we can pack, inventory, insure, uplift and store everything, for the full duration of your time offshore. Best of all we have one transit insurance policy (with storage extensions) that covers everything, including your eventual redelivery. By keeping everything under one roof there are no duplicated costs or uninsured gaps in your risk profile.
• If you would like your shipment stored in Australia, let us know; we will provide you with a quote and make all the arrangements with our service partner. Don’t worry, we only use the very best! You can be assured of the highest standard of care and security when your goods are stored and eventually redelivered in Australia.

STEP ONE

Ausmove quote on your full door to door move. We then complete the export packing of your household goods and transport them into our Auckland store. At this point you part pay for these portions of the move, and the marine insurance. There’s also a weekly storage cost. Now everything’s safe and secure, you can get across the ditch, and do what you need to do.

STEP TWO

Commences when you’re ready to call for your goods, all you need to do tell us when to ship them and pay the balance of your original quotation. We get them on the water, so you can take delivery and start your new life, in Australia.

The benefits of doing this are significant.

• Firstly, if your unsure of your final destination in Australia you don’t have to pay the full cost until you have confirmed your final destination. This allows you to secure a regular income or have a financial buffer, while you get acclimatised.
• Secondly, as long as we send your effects within 10-12 months of uplift there is no GST applicable for any part of the full door to door relocation, including insurance and pre-paid storage costs.
• Thirdly, if your plans don’t work out and you return home, you haven’t paid for the full move in advance, only the NZ based services. You also won’t have the cost of sending everything back again. We will apply GST to what you’ve already pre-paid, and you can decide what to do from there.
• Lastly, this option allows you to change your destination at a later date. If your household effects were already in Australia, any change could mean the cost of two moves in a short space of time. By having your effects in our New Zealand store all you need to do is notify us of any changes and we will adjust (if necessary) the second portion of your quote, without any changes to your insurance policy.
