Load Carrier

Load Carrier offers reliable moving services throughout New Zealand. With many years of experience as local movers, we are a trusted choice when you are looking for a moving company.

We have a reliable team that provides long-distance moves, furniture packing services, commercial moves, and more. So whatever kind of move you have coming up, we are here to help.

All goods are carried at the owner's risk unless arrangements are made for transit insurance. Carriers Liability insurance has very basic and limited coverage and will not provide full coverage. We encourage and strongly recommend that all our customers purchase their own transit insurance.

The safety of our clients' furniture and other items is always our topmost priority. Ensuring that our customers have a satisfactory experience with us is what we’re best at.

Note : Once the booking is confirmed we will require 15% payment in prior and rest on pick up.

Car Transport

Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017 – Limited Carriers Risk
This means that load carrier is not responsible for damage, theft or vehicle contents. This extends to while in transit, parked or stored. Unless in the unlikely event we are at fault, our insurance covers up to $2000 incl GST for any liable damage only.
All non-runners and pre-damaged vehicles are relocated at the owner’s risk.
We recommend having comprehensive insurance cover in place (Normal full car insurance) and ensuring your policy extends to “in transit between places in New Zealand”. This covers your vehicle when using a professional transport provider, by definition a company with a Transport Service Licence

Moving should be affordable for everyone, so we aim to keep our prices fair and reasonable.

Don't hesitate to get in touch with Load Carrier today!

We use moving blankets where required to prevent damage from friction and pack in a way to minimise movements and any potential for damage.

We provide our quotes based on the information provided. Apart from the quote details provided, please read the following terms before booking:

1. For any house/office moves and furniture relocation and general freight movement, where prices are quoted based on information provided by the customer, Furniture and Freight Distribution Group reserves the right to modify prices as a result of incorrect volume, dimension and/or weight or access conditions e.g. stairs or balcony varying to those quoted by the customer at the time of booking. The Customer should notify Furniture and Freight Distribution Group if there is not suitable and convenient access to the place from which the goods are to be removed. The movers can make an extra charge due to any access restrictions and will not be liable for any goods damaged through the lack of such access. Undeclared redirection, multi route, or additional manpower not requested, storage, etc. will incur extra charges.

2. There will be an extra charge for any extra heavy, oversized item such as double door fridge, vault/safe, spa pool, pool table, commercial items, etc. It’s the customer’s responsibility to inform Furniture and Freight Distribution Group prior if the move includes any item of such or similar nature.

3. If Furniture and Freight Distribution Group notices that goods are not safe to transport and may cause potential damage to either the item being moved or other items, including the vehicle, the company reserves the right to reject acceptance of the item/s.
4. Our designated arrival time is to be considered as a guide only. Various factors can affect our arrival time such as unexpected delays on previous job(s), delays caused by traffic congestion and/or accidents, roadworks and/or closures, streets not on maps and/or incorrect directions supplied by customers, weather, truck breakdown, etc.

5. Obtain at your own expense, all documents, permits, and licences necessary for the removal to be completed. It will incur extra charges, if our team has to wait for any documentation needed from your end.

6. Whilst our team of movers provides highest care and attention when carrying out your move, there remains the risk of damage.

You will be asked to file a claim.

Should our staff be instructed by the property occupier, or any person acting on their behalf to drive, park or maneuver vehicles in or near an area where such damage is likely to occur, compliance with such instructions will not in any way involve the Movers or its insurers in responsibility for any subsequent damage which may be sustained. Such responsibility will rest solely in the hands of the Owner.

8. Whilst our team provides highest care and attention to your goods when carrying out your move, there remains the risk of damage, especially when handling fragile items, large furniture, white ware items and/or kitchen appliances without its original packaging/unpacked. Arranging a transit insurance cover will give you peace of mind, should the unforeseen happen, you’ll be able to repair/replace your valuables.
