Do not use PBT, unless you don't care how long it takes or what condition the parcel is on delivery

Another company I would give half a star to if I could. At one point, way back in the beginning of time, they may have been okay to deal with, but now? no it is terrible. I have had several calls now where it takes them nearly half an hour to answer their phone. Once, it took an hour. This is for a business account as well. The PBT One website is a joke; it is clunky and not user-friendly. They advertise that they offer an overnight service between Nelson-Blenheim, but I was told by one of their call centre staff that they don't actually do that anymore. Blenheim to Christchurch is four days at the earliest. I am in the process of changing to another company. The only good thing about PBT is the companies they sub-contract thier jobs too as they provide great customer service and their truck drivers are great as well.

Don't use PBT, they suck at communicating

If you want anything bigger than a large cardboard box that weighs 100kgs from one side of Auckland to the other, you'd be best to drag it home yourself. It will get to it's destination quicker by about a week. Next time I'm going to get a trailer and save myself a few hundred bucks. I've even received stuff from China that I ordered a week after my goods were picked up by PBT.Also communication. The person at reception was good as she actually replied. Dispatch, not so good. Zero communication from them. I have no idea of a timeframe so I cant arrange to be at the delivery location when/if it arrives. Again, definitely don't go with these guys- over priced, bad service (for the main part) and little to no communication.

PBT ‘Express’ Freight - Utterly Useless!

PBT ‘Express’ Freight and I can say they’re by far the worst freight company I’ve ever dealt with. Took 10 days from Christchurch to South Canterbury (140km), most of which seemed to be in some Timaru-based freight purgatory. After a week of waiting it took multiple emails and phone calls to have them eventually find it. Finally delivered by some poor sod who was expected to lift a 75kg crate off a truck by himself: no tail lift. Their tracking software bore zero resemblance to reality and I wondered if they were on crack when they designed it. Any business using them to deliver their products gives themselves a bad name.

My fears were unfounded

I was really worried after reading these reviews! My packages arrived yesterday in a very timely manner, but as no one was home, they left a card to arrange redelivery. The QR code didn't work, nor did the website have any option for redelivery. So I phoned this morning, and they advised the supplier needed to authorize the redelivery. I phoned the supplier, they sent an email, and I phoned again. The package was safely delivered this afternoon.

PBT is the worst freight company in NZ

PBT is by far one of, if not the worst freight company in NZ. Absolutely useless service and communication. I have dealt with them off and on for about 10 years and they have always been terrible. Finally had enough and won't even shop with a company if PBT is my only freight option. I want nothing to do with this company again.

Very poor service

Got an item sent from Auckland. Their tracking data showed it is in their location in Seaview and not out for delivery. Tried to phone to arrange for someone to collect it and got an answering service that said they are not open as they are out of business hours, yet their web page shows that their operating hours are 8 am to 5 pm, My call was at 8:45 am

A few years ago I ordered an item and…

A few years ago I ordered an item and the seller sent it via PBT. The item never came. I didn’t know how to contact PBT as their phone number seemed non-existent. The seller managed to contact them and they said they’d look for the parcel. Item never came and seller sent replacement. I never got the item they lost. I think that’s terrible…
