This week marks a significant milestone for NZ Van Lines as we celebrate 40 years of service. Since our establishment in 1985, we have grown to become New Zealand’s household name for moving and storage services.
Over four decades, we have developed a strong nationwide presence with 13 branches and warehouse facilities, a dedicated team of more than 250 professionals, and a fleet of over 140 specialised vehicles. This extensive network enables us to deliver seamless domestic and international relocations backed by industry-leading modern infrastructure and a commitment to exceptional customer care.
New Zealand Van Lines’ journey has also been underpinned by rigorous industry-leading quality standards and global affiliations. Our long-standing membership with the FIDI Global Alliance and certification under the FAIM Quality Standard – the world’s only independently audited benchmark for international moving underscore our commitment to excellence. In addition, we are proud members of the OMNI Network International, the International Association of Movers (IAM), and the New Zealand Overseas Movers Association (NZOMA), extending our global reach and ensuring consistent service standards across every relocation.
NZ Van Lines was the first in the moving industry to obtain Toitu carbonreduce certification, reflecting our commitment to a sustainable future and maintaining our market-leading position.
Over the decades we have built strong partnerships with government agencies, major corporates, and thousands of Kiwi families and remain the trusted transport partner for the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra (NZSO) and the Royal New Zealand Ballet (RNZB). This reflects our long-term support for New Zealand’s arts and cultural sector – partnerships we are honoured to uphold.
Mark Pitcher, Group Managing Director, comments: “Celebrating 40 years is a milestone of which we are incredibly proud. It reflects the strength of our people and our network and the vision of the company’s founders: it honours the trust placed in us by families, businesses, and our global partners. As we look ahead, we remain focused on growing our capabilities, strengthening partnerships, and continuing to deliver premium moving and storage services.”
