Cost of shipping containers to New Zealand
Shipping via container has evolved to become one of the most efficient and cost effective methods of shipping goods across great distances. When you use Excess to send a container to New Zealand from the UK, we tailor the costs to suit your individual needs.
Our team will put their knowledge into practice and advise you on which container shipping method is best for you, or the most appropriate container size.
- Less Container Load: Sharing a container to New Zealand to move households or businesses overseas is a great way to share costs and decrease expenses. When utilising LCL, you will only be charged for the space your personal effects fill. This is best for smaller consignments such as a flat or apartment type moves, or maybe you just want to ship a few rooms from your house or your most loved furniture items.
- Full Container Load: FCL is great if you’re not the lightest traveller. You can ship a whole household or a vehicle and other personal & household effects in your own dedicated container. The shipping container dimensions we can offer are 20ft or 40ft dependent on the volume of your load, the cost of shipping a container to New Zealand is calculated based on the container size you put to use.
