Are You Moving into a New House?
Moving into a new home is a frequent thing for a lot of Kiwis and as most people already know from experience, moving from one property to another is generally considered one of the most stressful and downright daunting processes they will experience in their adult life.
Whether you’re shifting to an apartment or townhouse, upsizing or downsizing, one-room or a whole house, there’s a lot involved in the moving process. From the get-go you’ll be checking off a substantial to-do list, booking Tinkles into the cattery for moving day, transferring utility and mail services, spring cleaning in preparation for the big move and the packing alone can be pretty overwhelming. Booking a house moving company is a time-consuming hassle, and you have far more worrisome tasks to tackle, like how you’re going to pack your 1978 folding cardboard model of the Death Star or your bath bomb collection…all 68 of them.
There is so much to organise, so many small details to remember. You’re definitely going to need professional help, but how do you find the right house movers for the job?
One of the first things on your to-do list is to find a moving company. Fortunately, just hiring a moving company can save you a great deal of headaches. Removal companies take care of almost all aspects of your house move, from packing your items to transportation. A moving company can often make or break your entire moving experience, so it’s important to get it right! You could spend days calling house moving companies all over NZ, some may not even call back and you still have no idea which ones are reputable and reliable. Don’t worry, there is a better way. Take the roulette out of finding a mover and use MovingPros. It’s recommended that you get at least two price quotes but with MovingPros you’ll get up to 5!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cost of moving into a new home?
Prices for moving home vary depending on the size of your move (volume), distance from your pick-up and drop-off locations and how many men you hire to help. Every moving company quotes based on different criteria and there isn’t an industry standard.
As a general rule of thumb, for local house moves, quotes often show the movers hourly rates and any call out fees, and for inter-city moves a fixed fee will usually be provided.
