CDT Transport's local transport service covers short-haul moves within the Wellington region - from one suburb to another, from a storage facility to a property, from a retailer to a residential address. The key feature is what happens at both ends: the HIAB crane handles loading and unloading, so there's no dependence on facilities or infrastructure at either point.
Wellington's compact geography means local transport jobs often have more complexity than the distance suggests. A move from Karori to Island Bay might be a 20-minute drive, but the pickup might be from a steep driveway and the delivery might need to go over a back fence. CDT is set up for exactly these kinds of jobs - the short distance doesn't reduce the equipment or expertise needed.
CDT offers both local freight (under the Trucking category) and local transport. The distinction is mostly about the nature of the load: freight tends to mean commercial or business goods, while transport is broader - it includes residential moves, one-off items, and anything that doesn't fit neatly into a freight category. In practice, both services use the same truck and operator. Call Alan and describe the job - he'll fit it to the right service.

That depends on boom extension and where the load sits relative to the truck. Typical smaller HIAB units handle between one and three tonnes at safe working distances, which comfortably covers most residential and light commercial jobs around the region.
Yes - compact equipment fits narrow driveways and copes with steep gradients, provided the access is stable and overhead clearances (power lines, branches) have been checked thoroughly beforehand.
Local transport covers the entire Wellington region, including Wairarapa, Paraparaumu, and surrounding areas when booked with sufficient notice.
Building materials, stage rigging, sculptures, spa pools, demolition waste, and machinery - essentially any heavy or bulky load that standard vehicles or people carrying it by hand simply can't place safely.
It hinges on the current schedule, but single-operator flexibility frequently allows same-day or next-day service for urgent projects when availability permits.
