Moving large, heavy or difficult objects from one location to another is not something most of us do every day. It’s not like delivering a small parcel which you can post by New Zealand mail or through your favourite company cheaply and efficiently.
So when you have to shift your boat, a treasured motorcycle, your house contents, perhaps a sofa, table or even a pet or livestock, you’re in unfamiliar territory. That usually means, dedicating a significant amount of time to researching companies that might be able to help.
When you have narrowed down your online search, you get on the phone and start calling, asking whether they deliver to your planned destination, how much they will charge, when they’re available, and so on. All companies will have a different price but who knows if their service is comparable.
Some might even ask if this is your first time. When they see you have no clue about costs, they can play on your vulnerability to offer a stupidly high fee.
The difficulty is, you’re usually working blind and have no credentials that reassure you’re getting a quality service for a good price. But you come to an agreement anyway and hope for the best. Unfortunately, in these situations, many people have been scammed out of their money. We’ve all heard sad stories about moving companies failing to deliver on their promise.
That’s the traditional way of doing things. But Wise Move is a new and smarter way that offers greater transparency and takes away a lot of time, effort and worry.
WiseMove.co.nz is an online platform that lets you compare moving services and get free quotes for your particular delivery request within minutes. Once you fill in the form on the Wise Move website, your request is automatically sent to registered, pre-qualified movers on the site that specifically match your needs.
For example, if you want to move a piano, the request will be sent to companies with the technology, knowledge and skills for moving pianos. If you want to shift your home contents and don’t want to do the heavy lifting, your request will go to companies that can supply several strong moving people.
Whether they are large national moving companies or independent operators, they’ll quickly come back to you with a quote and all the details you need. Because it creates a competitive situation, the platform makes it easy to select the best price available and to check the feedback others have provided about their service. User reviews are encouraged so new users can assess the true value of the quote.
You may even find a special deal where a mover is travelling between cities and has spare capacity to fill and wants a last minute decision.
The whole idea of the platform is to make moving things simple and transparent, so you get the best service from specialists at the cheapest price for the least amount of effort. Wise Move saves time and reassures that you’ve made the best possible delivery decision.
The service has been operating across New Zealand for two years now. Check the reviews online to see what other satisfied customers have had to say.
