Movers on the Hibiscus Coast

Trusted movers on the Hibiscus Coast.

House, apartment and retirement moves across Orewa, Whangaparāoa, Silverdale and Millwater, from an owner-operated team rated 4.9 on Google from 228 reviews.

Local knowledge

We know the Hibiscus Coast.

The Hibiscus Coast covers beachside homes and apartments in Orewa and Red Beach, family homes along the Whangaparāoa Peninsula, and fast-growing new suburbs in Millwater and Milldale. It’s also a popular place to retire, so downsizing and retirement village moves are common here.

We plan longer runs from the city carefully, so the truck arrives when we said it would.

Planning your move

Moving on the Hibiscus Coast: what to plan for.

Peninsula traffic

Whangaparāoa Road is the only main road on and off the peninsula, and it gets slow at peak times. We plan start times around it.

New streets in Millwater and Milldale

Some new streets are still being built, and parking can be tight. Send us your exact address and any directions from your builder.

Beachfront apartments

Apartment buildings on the Orewa waterfront often need the lift and loading area booked ahead. Check the rules with your building manager.

Hibiscus Coast moving guide

Making your Hibiscus Coast move easier.

Moving up from Auckland

Moving from the city or the North Shore to the Coast is usually done in one day. SH1 north of Albany is the main route, and we time the drive to avoid the heaviest traffic.

Downsizing and retirement villages

If you’re moving from a family home into a smaller home or a retirement village, start sorting early and work out what will fit. See our downsizing and retirement village moves page for a step-by-step guide.

Steep sections and coastal access

Some homes in Stanmore Bay, Manly and Army Bay sit on steep sections or have stairs down to the house. Photos of the access help us plan the right crew.
