About us
A whānau centred house moving company
Whānau owned and operated since 2017, based in Hikurangi near Whangārei. Much more than a house moving company, we are a closely connected whānau.

Our people
We invest in our team
The contribution of every member of our team is valued. We invest in people from day one, supporting them to gain additional licences, qualifications and health and safety certifications, alongside comprehensive on the job training.
Our team includes highly trained house movers and heavy haulage specialists, Licensed Building Practitioners, and the administration staff who hold the whole thing together.
We believe in unity, respect and growth. We are clean and tidy on site, we make sure the re-sited building comes through with minimal damage, and we are straightforward to deal with.
Equipment
Hydraulic house trailers, designed in New Zealand
Our house trailers were designed here, for New Zealand roads, New Zealand houses and New Zealand ground. Hydraulics let us lift and set a building precisely, and keep it level while it travels.
That precision is the difference between a house arriving intact and a house arriving with cracked linings.
