Shipping Container Costs to New Zealand

Christchurch is a beautiful city located in the South Island of New Zealand. Although a great deal of the central city was demolished due to the 2012 earthquake, Christchurch still remains a place of great beauty and the city is working to rebuild what was destroyed. Whilst the climate can be unpredictable, the seasons tend to be fairly mild and rainfall is moderate. The city offers high quality health care and a brilliant education system, offering both single-sex schools and traditional English style public schools. The primary mode of transport in Christchurch is the car, however there is an extensive bus network and tram system, with the latter doubling up as a popular tourist attraction. The city's flat terrain also makes for an ideal place in which to cycle, which many people do. Visit the Air Force Museum of New Zealand, check out the various species of animal at the Willowbank Wildlife Reserve or listen to the majestic Christchurch Symphony Orchestra. However you choose to spend your time, you will never tire of this radiant city.

Be sure to choose the right size shipping container before you make the move to Christchurch. Here's an idea of how many items can fit into two different size containers: A 40-foot container could hold the contents of a 4 or 5-bedroom house, or a 3-bedroom house along with a car. The second option is a 20-foot container, which could hold the contents of a 3-bedroom house only.
