Cerrax vs Yembo
How Cerrax and Yembo compare for moving companies in New Zealand, from what each one publishes — including where Yembo is stronger.
Written by Cerrax, so we're not neutral. Everything here comes from each product's own public pages and review listings, linked in the footnotes, checked on 28 September 2026. If we've got something wrong, email hello@cerrax.io and we'll correct it.
Where Yembo is stronger
AI-powered virtual surveys for movers: smartphone walkthroughs become priced, reviewable inventories.
- Specialist AI survey technology with granted AI patents and a large annotated video dataset.
- Integrations with moving CRMs and inventory platforms (e.g. Move4U).
- Also covers claims and insurance use cases from the same inventory record.
Where Cerrax differs
- Every figure shows its working, line by line, and you can always override it.
- One tool from the quote to the crew: the quotation, the deposit, the diary and the day itself.
Yembo does not publish its prices. Cerrax is priced by how much you quote, from $89 a month. Yembo prices from rates the firm sets up; Cerrax works the price out from the job's facts — volume, distance, access, crew and time — and shows the working.

A weatherboard villa in an Auckland suburb going down State Highway 1 to Hamilton: a moving truck with a tail-lift, a sloping section at one end, and a long carry from the road to the front door at the other. Cerrax prices it from the villa's volume, the open-road kilometres, and the time the slope and the carry add to the crew's day.
The vehicles it plans with here:
- Small removal truck (18–20 m³, class 1)
- Large rental truck with tail-lift (24–28 m³, class 1)
- Removal truck (40–45 m³, class 2)
