Re: When your container arrives, how long till you get your belongings?
Our container is due to arrive end of August and I just wondered how long I should expect to wait before we take delivery of the contents. It is coming into Auckland and will contain lots of camping equipment, horse tack and equipment etc so I assume it will be inspected.
PSS shipped it so not sure what the process is when the ship arrives.
Thanks in advance!

We used Toll to bring it from Auckland to Whangarei, they collected dockside and drove it straight here, we took our own padlock off on our drive here.

Ours is through now. Have the princely sum of $46 to pay which is pretty sweet.
Now just need to convince our prospective landlord that we will get jobs soon and not be a risk when renting their house!
