Advanced Packing Techniques

At New Zealand Movers we train our packers and moving staff in-house through our full time operational training programme. Dave Costigan is MITO certified and holds NZTA authorisation to train and issue Truck licenses, showing New Zealand Movers total commitment to improving our staffs performance and industry specific education, covering the latest techniques for protecting and moving your belongings.

We use the most advanced moving boxes and packing materials available and always have an eye on the environment; minimising wastage and recycling and reusing where possible.

Professional Packing Materials

We use a wide range of packaging materials specifically designed for the packing and protection of your personal and household belongings.

Professional Packing

We protect items such as china, plastics and books in paper before packing into cartons.

Priority Packing

Priority cartons are used for important items such as remote controls, bed legs, and bolts from dismantled furniture. This way you know exactly where everything is as soon as you arrive.

Tube Packing Stemware & Delicates

All delicate items, such as glassware or china, are individually wrapped with paper and tissue. If necessary these can be packed in corrugated cardboard tubes for additional protection. All items are packed in specially designed removal cartons for transport.

Packing Pictures & Mirrors

Pictures are individually wrapped in Tuff Wrap, a material specially designed for packing household goods for export. One or more pictures or mirrors are then placed into an adjustable size picture carton for added protection.

Packing and Moving Flat Screen TVs

Flat screen TVs and computer screens are shape-wrapped with Tuff Wrap, then placed inside a special flat screen TV carton with polystyrene inserts for maximum stability and protection.

Packing Clothes

We use either flat clothes cartons or hanging port-a-robes for transporting clothes. Clothes in cartons are packed flat with their arms folded in; they can remain on their hangers. Port-a-robes are a little more expensive but reduce creasing so your clothes are ready to wear straight away.

Packing Bikes & Golf Clubs

We use purpose-made cartons for golf clubs and bicycles to keep your sports gear in good condition.

Fragile Packing

Specified delicate or fragile items get customised protection.

Bed & Settee Protection

We use heavy-gauge plastic mattress bags to protect mattresses and bed bases.

Bed & Settee Protection

Lounge suites are placed inside heavy-gauge plastic lounge bags.

Loading Trucks & Containers

For local and city to city removals, items are protected with furniture removal pads. Goods are loaded tightly and strapped into our removal vehicles or steel shipping containers to avoid movement.
