Recent urgent and same-day deliveries in Auckland

Real completed jobs from SENDIT listings.

Each card shows the timing for that job — Same day, Flexible, or Scheduled — so you can see what Auckland deliverers have actually completed.

Among these 6 completed delivery examples, prices ranged from $29–$150

Prices vary by distance, item size, urgency, access, and whether extra help is needed. This is a sample of published examples — not a complete price list or national average.

When you need something moved today

Sometimes you need something moved today, but traditional courier options are too slow, too rigid, unavailable, or not suited to one-off items. SENDIT is ideal when you need something moved quickly — availability depends on nearby deliverers.

  • Forgotten keys, documents, bags or tools
  • Click and collect orders you cannot pick up yourself
  • Facebook Marketplace and Trade Me pickups
  • Small business orders and customer drop-offs
  • Parts, samples, supplies or equipment
  • Personal items across Auckland suburbs

The SENDIT way

SENDIT is a flexible delivery app — not a courier fleet. You set your price and timeframe, then available verified deliverers can accept or quote.

Add pickup and drop-off locations, item details, timing, photos and your price.

2

Get interest from deliverers

Verified deliverers can accept your listed price or send a quote.

3

Choose the right deliverer

Review the deliverer profile, rating and quote before accepting.

4

Track confirmation

Use in-app chat, pickup/drop-off photos and delivery status updates. Pickup and drop-off photos help confirm the delivery.

How pricing works for urgent Auckland deliveries

With SENDIT, you choose the price you're willing to pay. Deliverers can accept your price or send a quote. Urgent jobs may attract faster interest when the price reflects the distance, item size and timing.

Distance and route

Short local runs typically cost less than cross-city urgent jobs. Deliverers factor travel time into their quotes.

Item size and access

Larger or awkward items may need a bigger vehicle and more handling time, which can affect quotes.

You always see the price before you accept a deliverer. For more on how SENDIT pricing works, see our fees page.
