How the Todds ‘Moved On’ in style

But their most recent transition - to Parklane retirement community in Forrest Hill, Auckland - came with the added magic of Moving On. When new residents join an Arvida community, they receive the relocation services at no charge*.

Downsizing from a home to a villa could have meant anxiety over second-guessing what to keep. Instead, Fay and Lindsay found themselves discussing, lunching, and planning their move with the Moving On team.

Fay, an avid gardener, watched as her pots, plants, and precious gardening supplies were transported carefully by the team. Meanwhile, Lindsay marvelled at how the Moving On crew made even the dining room table assembly look easy. In Lindsay’s words: “It’s all been plain sailing really. The Moving On team are nice friendly people and easy to deal with.” Fay chimed in, “They were wonderful with moving everything, the care was 100%.”

But what really sets Moving On apart? It’s more than just boxes and bubble wrap. This nationwide New Zealand service specialises in stress-free relocation - handling every step from downsizing and packing to storage, and even the final exit clean. Empathy is at the heart of their work and every new resident is welcomed home in comfort and style.

For the Todds, Moving On transformed a daunting moving chore into a breeze, proving that when it comes to new beginnings – a helping hand goes a long way.
