Moving services

Move by Design offers a full range of moving support services, including full move management, decluttering, preparing homes for sale, packing, removals, exit cleaning, unpacking, organising, and setting up your new home, including media and art installation. We help make moving feel less stressful by managing the details from start to finish.

Unlike a standard moving company that focuses mainly on transport, Move by Design provides a more complete, full-service and hands-on service. We support the entire moving process, helping with everything from preparation and packing to unpacking and making your new home feel settled. We also offer a very personal service, our team of ladies who look after the packing, unpacking and move coordination, are mature, caring women who all have their own home. The service providers we work with are handpicked and offer the best-in-class service in their specialist area to ensure quality standards are consistently excellent.

Our team carefully packs your belongings, transports them safely, and helps set up your new home so it feels functional and comfortable straight away. Our team is art gallery trained and includes interior designers, professional organisers and qualified project managers.

Yes, we can help with decluttering before your move so you can reduce what you are taking and feel more organised. This makes packing easier, saves time on moving day, and helps create a calmer start in your new home. We can help with donating items, selling items and ensuring any rubbish is recycled and dealt with appropriately.

Yes, we can assist with preparing your home for sale by helping with decluttering, home maintenance, styling and packing away non-essential and non-staging items to get the property ready for the next stage. Our support can make the process feel much more manageable when you are juggling both selling and moving.

Yes, we regularly help clients with downsizing and retirement moves, offering practical and caring support throughout the process. We understand these moves can be both emotional and complex, so we take a thoughtful and respectful approach every step of the way. We work with a number of retirement villages including Vivid Living, Orewa Sands and The Botanic, as well as moving clients to many other villages across Auckland.

Yes, we can manage the entire moving process from the early planning stages right through to unpacking and home setup. Our goal is to take the pressure off you by handling the logistics and details so your move feels smooth, well organised and joyful. Some of our clients even go on holiday and let us handle everything, they return home and their home is completely set-up according to their requirements.

Yes, Move by Design provides moving services across Auckland and lower Northland. If you are planning a move within these areas, get in touch and we can discuss the best way to support your relocation.

 It is always best to book your move as early as possible so there is plenty of time to plan and organise everything properly. Booking ahead also gives you more flexibility and helps make the whole process feel less rushed. Ideally we require a minimum 4 weeks notice, however, we have been able to fulfill moves with less than a week’s notice, depending on our capacity.

Yes, every move we manage is tailored to suit the client’s individual needs, timeline, and level of support required. Whether you need full end-to-end assistance or help with just part of the process, we can create a service that works for you.

We help anyone who requires a full-service move solution. This can include people downsizing or moving into retirement villages; busy professionals and families who are time poor; as well as people with medical needs who need extra support during a move. 

Using a full service moving service can help clients preserve their precious time, energy and health and make the process of moving enjoyable and efficient.
