Case Overview: Ms. Fang entrusted Hippo International Moving to ship her furniture items from her home in Suzhou to Auckland, New Zealand by sea.

Auckland, known as the "Sailing Capital", is the largest city in New Zealand, as well as the economic and cultural center. With its natural beauty, pleasant climate and multicultural atmosphere, Auckland attracts immigrants from all over the world. It is not only a haven for adventure and outdoor activities, but also a vibrant, innovative and inclusive city that offers a wide range of living and development opportunities for people from different backgrounds.

Ms. Fang is a senior executive at a listed company in Suzhou and has earned high praise from the company's leadership for her outstanding work performance. Recently, the company decided to transfer her to work at its headquarters in New Zealand, meaning she would face a lifestyle change and would need to settle down in New Zealand.

Fortunately, the company offered her expatriate benefits, allowing her to ship her personal furniture to New Zealand with most of the costs covered by the company. Faced with such a generous offer, Ms. Fang decided to take advantage of this benefit without hesitation.

Before deciding to move, Ms. Fang was not familiar with international moving, so she made extensive inquiries and comparisons, and finally chose Hippo International Moving Service. After signing the transportation contract, Ms. Fang made an appointment for door-to-door packing service. On the agreed date, Hippo's supervisors and staff came to Ms. Fang's home in Suzhou, where they first carefully inspected the furniture and confirmed the list of items to be packed with Ms. Fang, and then started the careful packing process to ensure the safety of the furniture during the shipping process. Below is the pick up and packing site on the same day:
