Car Transport Companies?

[subiv5]

Anyone know any really good car transport companies?

We need to get a car from Auckland to Queenstown.

I have tried most of the ones that pop up in Google and the best quote I have so far is $1,200ish. Is that good or not?

Can anyone recommend any other businesses to try?

Thanks Andrew

Jeff Ward. Don't remember the pricing, but used them a couple of times, and always good.

think toll do a good deal if you stick it on a train something like $350-$500

Yup the background is that its a car for my sister thats living down in Queenstown, we couldnt find anything that suited her down there but found her a nice 04 impreza hatch up here. Now just want to get it down the cheapest and easiest way.

Would love to drive it down and fly back but starting back at work on the 11th and flights seem to be extra pricey at the moment something about the national sevens being held down there at the moment ???

1 would assume that 1200$ is pricing for your car collection an delivery alone . Where as if you were not running on time restriction and you organised the car to be collected on a return run from a transport company surely it would cost considerably less. Also try training it down as an option.

Yeah that was for just the delivery no collection or anything, thats why I thought it was a little over the top. Apparently Christchurch is way cheaper so looking into that option.

Train makes sense..I paid about $380 Puke to Welly (Auckland car deliveries)so when u add ferry costs and then same distance again u get up a bit.

I used captian trasnporter a few months back to get my RA down from aucks to taupo, very competitive pricing and very thorough according to my old man.

Looking at there online quote its only $600 to get from aucks to christchurch and thats pick up and drop off.
