4 Star Move
Despite my concern about an antique dresser and it being measured for a crate, and us paying (I thought) for a crate, the wooden mirrored top of the dresser was not created and only bubble wrapped. Of everything we moved this was the thing that I was most concerned about and the thing I most wanted crated so it was very disappointing to find it was not crated in the end. I had made this very clear to the Conroy people in Australia who came to do the quote. Significant damage (crush) was done to our antique dinning room table which we are in the process of making an insurance claim to be repaired. Unloading in Paihia was very unsatisfactory. I acknowledge the ferry truck driver let you down and on the day the Conroy guys did the best they could under the circumstances but that said it still meant that (a) the truck that was initially used was far too big to be driven up our private road - I had warned Conroy in both Australia and in New Zealand about this on multiple times and was assured it would not happen so again very disappointing and (b) there was only 2 guys to unload over 220 items (some large and heavy boxes and furniture). I acknowledge at the 11th hour once all the hard work had been done a couple of other guys turned up. I was not asked by the Conroy guys to help unload (I volunteered) but I spent a good couple of hours helping them because it was obvious that it was going to take a long time with just the 2 of them (compared to the 4 who packed and loaded our stuff in Australia). Despite the difficulties on the day the Conroy guys were helpful and professional at all times but it was obvious they needed help which they did not have. They seemed surprised to find we had stairs which again I had previously told Conroy about on multiple occasions. This is New Zealand after all - who does not have stairs? A few other breakages of smaller items but I guess that is to be expected given the volume and nature of the operation.
Moving Couch
The two guys that did my move was amazing. They were very friendly and very efficient. Trying to help as much as possible. I realised that one of my couches was not delivered and informed one of the guys who immediately contacted Lee. It is now two weeks since my furniture was delivered, and I have not heard anything from Lee. I think this is such bad customer service, especially for the amount of money i paid. Hopefully Lee will contact me as I do not think it is my place to chase him.
I am really not happy with the service and will definately not use your company again.

Helpful & Careful
It was a very efficient move. Very helpful and careful.
"pleasant and efficient"
I'm not sure where the fault lies but this was the WORST move I have ever experienced. The problem, I believe, was at the packing end because I have never had so many breakages in a move before (and this is my 10th). Almost every glass lamp, glass candle lens and vase was broken. A blanket box was totally destroyed, a one of a kind, hand painted cupboard has a deep gouge in it and a coffee table broken. A leg of the main bed head was broken off and the arm of a valuable Chinese chair was also broken. There are many more examples I could list but I believe I have painted the picture.
As I mentioned I do not believe Conroy was responsible for the damage and I would add that the service from Conroy was pleasant and efficient.
Smooth Move
Everything this side went very smoothly. The counterparts in the UK were struggling a little - it seems the systems aren't quite geared to allow for a different Sender to the Recipient. It's as if only one party can 'live' there, which means that communications aren't always going to the right person. Fortunately, we know the recipients well and have been able to smooth things out by forwarding emails, etc. when required. I'd consider that the only spot where you could possilbly look at improving. Everything else went really great and we would be sure to use you again in the future! Thanks again!

Long Transit Time
The initial quote and booking stages were excellent. I queried the time it would take a few times and was told as with the website says 9-12 weeks. It wasnt until I got an email 7 weeks after my boxes left my house( 6/12) that I was told my boxes were been shipped in March no apology or explanation. I emailed my concerns I had presumed they were already en route I explained how unhappy I was and was then sent an earlier date of the end of February. At no point did anyone give an explanation as to why it was late only that the times can vary. My boxes didn’t arrive at my house until 16weeks after they left. I was impressed with the team this side I was just let down with the lack of communication and explanation of wait times. Perhaps you should extend your 9-12 weeks so you can meet expectation especially as if I hadn’t queried my boxes would she another 4 weeks later than this .
