Frequently Asked Questions
How to choose reliable movers for my move to Perth?
Choose a company with strong Trans-Tasman expertise, clear and honest pricing, and a team that treats your belongings with genuine care. New Zealand Movers brings over 40 years of experience helping Kiwis relocate to Perth, offering customised shipping options and internationally trained staff to ensure a worry-free move from door to door.
How far in advance should I book a move to Perth?
We recommend getting your booking in at least six to eight weeks ahead of your move to Perth. This gives you enough time to sort out shipping, confirm your pickup and delivery dates, and make sure everything goes to plan without any rush.
How long will it take to ship my goods to Perth?
For a sole-use container, transit is usually around 5–10 weeks door to door. If you’re choosing a groupage option, where your shipment travels in a shared container, the estimated transit time is typically 6–14 weeks. Please keep in mind that these timings can vary depending on vessel schedules and Australian Quarantine inspection timeframes. At present, inspection backlogs may add up to three weeks to the overall journey.
Do you offer packing services for my move to Perth?
Yes, we provide professional packing services to ensure your furniture and household items are well protected from start to finish. This can be tailored to full-home or selected items.
Should I insure my belongings when moving to Perth?
Yes, insuring your goods during your move is highly recommended for peace of mind and protection, just in case something unexpected happens along the way. We offer a range of insurance options through Vero Marine, one of the world’s most trusted and reputable providers.
