CDT Transport's general transport service covers the full range of everyday Wellington transport requirements - goods and items that need moving from A to B efficiently, safely, and with the delivery properly completed at the destination. The HIAB crane on CDT's truck means 'properly completed' includes placement, not just delivery to the kerb.
General transport with CDT suits residential customers with items too large for a van, businesses needing regular or one-off freight runs across Wellington, tradespeople who need supplies transported to their jobs, and anyone who has an item that requires more than a courier but doesn't necessarily need a specialised service. If you're not sure which CDT service fits your job, general transport is the right starting point - call Alan and describe what you need.
CDT's general transport service covers Wellington city and the greater Wellington region. For regional runs to Wairarapa, Kapiti, Palmerston North, and beyond, see regional transport. Call Alan on 027 444 2191 to discuss your transport requirements.
Typical loads range from 500 kg art pieces right through to 3-tonne machinery. The exact capacity depends on boom extension and ground stability, so Alan assesses each site individually to confirm safe lifting limits for your specific job.
Absolutely. The crane boom extends over fences, garages, or slopes while the truck stays put on the street. This setup suits Wellington hillside homes and heritage precincts with restricted entry, delivering loads that would otherwise need manual handling or specialised access gear.
Subject to availability, same-day bookings suit time-critical construction or event needs in Wellington, Lower Hutt, Porirua, and the Kapiti Coast when weather and traffic conditions allow. Get in touch early in the day for the best chance of locking in an urgent slot.
Lifts pause or get rescheduled when gusts climb above safe limits. Alan monitors conditions constantly, especially on exposed coastal sites in Miramar or along the Kapiti Coast, putting safety ahead of speed to protect your cargo.
Any task combining truck delivery with crane lifting qualifies. Building supplies, heavy appliances, demolition material, industrial equipment, outdoor furniture, and art installations throughout the Wellington region all fall comfortably within general transport scope.
Small-truck dimensions and decades of Wellington experience let CDT access colonial-era lanes, steep Northland grades, and zero-clearance townhouse developments. Bigger rigs simply cannot get into these spaces - but CDT's compact setup reaches them safely and efficiently.
