Purchasing that magnificent antique oak Welsh dresser on Trade Me can be a great solution as a place to put your China plates and photographs, but it can come with problems. The price may be excellent, but that may be because the seller is in New Plymouth. So now the challenge is to organise freight to get the thing up to your home in Mt Maunganui.
Once it’s brought to your house, there is the challenge of finding somebody to lift the item into place.
By using an online marketplace application we can let the market respond and find movers offering the best price, service, and quality assurance. The best marketplace is Wise Move, which has been making waves in New Zealand’s moving industry. At WiseMove.co.nz, independent carriers can bid to take care of your transportation needs. Since they’re bidding against each other, moving companies are going to put their best prices, speediest delivery time estimates and best reputation in front of you.
The best features:
- It doesn’t cost a cent to find your mover.
- Posting a listing on WiseMove.co.nz means competitive quotes will pop into your inbox.
- You can upload photos, dimensions, specs and handling requirements for whatever you’re moving.
- You don’t have to do it over and over: one job listing will attract multiple quotes so Kiwis can find the best price.
- The platform saves time and money; Wise Move estimates the price of moving services can be 75% cheaper than standard moving rates if you are matched with the nearest or cheapest provider.
Essentially, the marketplace application does all the heavy lifting. All you have to do is choose who to go with.
Wise Move is gaining a reputation around New Zealand for being helpful, easy-to-use and, most important of all, safe. The independent movers who sign up as providers have security vetting and proof of identity supplied – so you know your goods have both assurance and insurance.
Manager Emma Pearl says Wise Move was brought to New Zealand because a lot of people, particularly older people, may be on their own and may not have a strong family member to help move an item.
“They have found the platform really helpful in separating honest, independent and fairly-priced movers from other options,” Emma says. “It’s about offering Kiwis a market with more fairness – plus a chance for independent movers to find fresh customers from the North Island to the South and everywhere in between.”
Wise Move has specialist pages of advice solving all the following problems and more:

- If you’re impressed by Diane’s experience and would like to get a quote from FridgeFreight, that’s doable.
- If you want your mover to know the dimensions, specs and handling requirements for whatever you’re moving – and you’d like to upload a photo to demonstrate – that’s easily done. One job listing will attract multiple quotes.
