Access and parking
In Hamilton, a lot of moving follows the university year and the new subdivisions. At the start and end of a teaching year, beds, desks and a few boxes shift between flats in Hillcrest, Hamilton East and Claudelands, with polytech students doing the same closer to the centre. A household settling at Rototuna, Flagstaff or Peacocke might need a single dining suite or a wardrobe picked up out at Te Rapa. You can also post Trade Me collections from sellers at Cambridge, Morrinsville or Ngāruawāhia, or building materials going to a site on the edge of the city. The Waikato River shapes a Hamilton run. The city sits on both banks, so a Dinsdale pickup bound for Hillcrest has to choose a crossing, and drivers weigh the Cobham, Fairfield and Claudelands bridges against each other. A northern job adds Wairere Drive at school time. Streets in Hamilton East and around the university park out, leaving a long carry. Gully sections put steps and a bank between the kerb and the door. Around Victoria Street the loading spaces are short and timed, so a driver plans where the van will sit. Rototuna to Glenview is a cross-town run, and a driver factors that in when ordering the day. Posting a Hamilton job costs nothing, and there is no set city rate, because every bid is priced by the driver who would do the work. A driver based at the northern end might fit your job in before their next one, and a driver already heading past the city on the expressway may price it differently. One person and a van costs less to keep on the road than a truck and a crew, which is another reason bids differ. Put the access at both ends in the listing and the bids you compare are priced on the real job.
How SoundMove works, and what to ask anywhere else
Different jobs suit different options. Here is how ours works, and the questions worth asking before you book any of them.
| On SoundMove | Worth asking anywhere else | |
|---|---|---|
| Couch-sized items | Built for them. Post the item with photos and drivers with a suitable vehicle bid on it. | Check the size and weight limits before you book. |
| Who sets the price | Drivers set their own prices and bid against each other for your job. | Ask how the price is worked out, and what could change it on the day. |
| Payment protection | Your payment is held from the moment you accept a bid until the job's done. We release it when you confirm, or automatically 24 hours after the driver marks it done if you haven't raised an issue. | Ask when payment is due, and what protects it if something goes wrong. |
| Single items & small loads | Post just the one item. Each bid is for the job you posted. | Ask whether a minimum charge applies to a job this size. |
