We know you could have been thinking about moving to Australia for months, so the answer to this question is that we need to be booked in as early as possible. 2 weeks notice would be considered a tight timeline. If you plan your move from when you want to take delivery in Australia back to when you first ask us for a quote, you can set up a timeline.
Here’s how that can work if you are planning for a sole use container relocation from Auckland to either Brisbane, Sydney, or Melbourne;
- From delivery in Australia back to pack out day in NZ is 6 weeks. (transit guidelines)
- You then need to give Ausmove two weeks’ notice, which makes 8 weeks
- You should allow another 4 weeks to get your quotation organized
Using the above example, the timeline from your first contact with Ausmove to taking delivery in Australia is approx. 12 weeks.
Of course, this is a rough guideline only, as everything depends on your personal circumstances, shipping timetables and other uncontrollables, like port delays and the workloads of border control officials.
