💡 Top Tips: How to Save Money When Moving Between Cities in NZ
Here are the most effective ways to reduce costs on your intercity move:
1. Declutter Before You Move
Less stuff = lower cost. Before packing, go through your home and sell, donate, or recycle anything you no longer need. You’ll save on space, labor, and transport fees.
2. Choose the Right Truck Size
If you’re not moving a full house load, don’t pay for a full-size truck. A smaller truck or van is often cheaper in terms of fuel and labor. We can help assess the best vehicle for your needs.
3. Pack Your Own Boxes
At Auckland Movers Cheap, we don’t currently offer packing services—so doing it yourself is a great way to save. Use second-hand boxes, wrap fragile items well, and label everything clearly.
4. Book in Advance
Booking early can help you lock in lower rates, especially before busy seasons like end-of-year holidays or university move-in dates.
5. Move Midweek or Off-Peak
Weekends and holidays are peak moving times. If possible, schedule your move for a weekday or off-peak month to enjoy better rates and more availability.
