Can I fill my vehicle with goods and ship it from the UK to NZ?

Items can be placed inside your vehicle for shipping, but this is only permitted if your vehicle is transported within a shipping container. All contents must be declared to New Zealand customs & MPI upon arrival or to the appropriate authority in the destination country. However, if you’re using the Roll on Roll off method, shipping lines don’t allow vehicles with personal effects loaded inside. Feel free to reach out to Rocket Freight if you have any questions about permissible cargo.

Is it worth shipping a vehicle from UK to NZ?

Shipping a car to New Zealand from the UK can seem overwhelming, and your initial inquiry should revolve around whether it’s worth the effort. To determine this, consider several factors: Does the car hold special significance for you? Is it rare or unavailable in NZ? Does it possess sentimental value? Additionally, compare its overseas value to its worth in NZ. Reach out to Rocket Freight today, and we can calculate the total landed cost in NZ for you to directly compare with the local sales price. This will help you ascertain whether the endeavor is financially viable and whether you should proceed.
