  • Declutter before packing — Reduce your moving costs by donating, selling, or discarding items you no longer need
  • Label every box clearly — Mark each box with its contents and destination room to make unpacking easier
  • Keep important documents with you — Carry passports, contracts, medical records, and valuables personally rather than in the moving truck
  • Notify all relevant parties — Update your address with NZ Post, banks, utilities, and government agencies before your move date
