Exactly how long does it take to get belongings shipped door to door on average? We are hanging around in UK for a month after the stuff has gone in the hope that we don't have to wait too long in NZ and we are planning to go straight into an unfurnished rental :rolleyes:

We have been told 6 to 8 weeks and most people we know over here waited about that time. If you have only a part container then it could take longer depending on where the other goods in the container are destined for.

From memeory ours took approx 7 weeks door to door. We managed in an unfurnished house for 5 weeks. I packed a duvet, knives and forks that sort of thing. We purchased a new matress when we got here, the rest other forum members lent us bits and pieces to see us through.

If you are a few weeks without your furniture just shout if you need to borrow anything. It was all the little things that you don't want to buy as it is opn it;s way.

Hi!
Our container left our old house on the 4th January, and we took delivery to our new home on Friday 29th Feb, so 8 weeks for us. If I'd done the paperwork quicker at this end, we might have shaved a week off...

17 weeks by Allied Pickfords & still waiting. Its due into the docks today but still have not had a phone call. Boo hoo!! am just hoping that customs don't take as long to clear it.
