Getting There — Wellington to Christchurch

Your belongings travel via Cook Strait ferry from Wellington to Picton, then SH1 south through Kaikoura and Canterbury. The total distance is approximately 350 km, taking around 5 hours of driving time. This route includes a Cook Strait ferry crossing between Wellington and Picton — your mover coordinates the booking and your items stay securely loaded on the truck throughout. When listing your move on Movestuff, include details like property type, stairs, floor level, and how far the truck can park from your front door — these all affect your quote.

Inter-Island Office Relocation — Planning & Logistics

Relocating an office from Wellington to Christchurch involves coordinating road transport with a Cook Strait ferry crossing. Equipment typically travels via SH1 to Wellington before crossing to Picton. This adds scheduling complexity, particularly for sensitive IT systems and time-critical equipment. Plan for a 2–3 day transit window and consider a staged move to keep your business running.
