What exactly is included in packing and handling?We take care of everything. That means bringing the boxes, wrapping your breakables, packing things up safely, and making sure everything’s good to go on moving day. We handle it all with care so your things arrive just the way you left them. Whether you're doing a local move in Wellington or move around New Zealand we will make sure your goods are packed and handled the Mr. Move It way!
-
Should I start packing anything before the movers arrive?If you’ve booked us for full packing and handling, you can sit back and relax. If you’re doing part of the packing yourself, it’s best to start about four to six weeks before the move so things aren’t too hectic near the end and it's smooth sailing.
-
Will the movers pack everything for me?Yep, if you go for our full packing service, we’ll pack the whole house, easy as. If you only want help with a few rooms or delicate items, we can sort that too. Just let us know what works for you and we can quote you on what you want.
-
What’s the difference between partial and full packing and handling?Full packing means we do the lot. We bring all the materials and pack everything up. Partial packing is when you handle most of it yourself and we step in to help with certain things, like the kitchen or anything fragile.
-
Are packing materials included in the price?They sure are. We bring solid boxes, bubble wrap, tape, and everything else needed to get your things packed properly. No need to hunt down supplies and stress, we’ve got you sorted.
-
Do you offer insurance or cover any damage during packing and handling?We’ve got standard liability cover included. If you’re after extra peace of mind, we can chat about full-value protection as well. Just ask and we’ll walk you through it to make sure you're covered.
