Our Australia car shipping success stories

“We were genuinely worried about our much loved Commodore being damaged in loading and shipping from Australia to NZ. However, Joe immediately set us at ease with his knowledge and his calm can-do attitude. He personally stayed in touch while our Commodore was in transit – just to keep us up-to-date and manage any trepidation. McCullough provided us a trustworthy, first class service with flawless execution.”
