Less is More Auckland

Team member shout out to Tess 🙌 She showed a new side of herself this week - prowess with a crowbar!! 💪💪 our team members are like Swiss army knives, we try to do as much as possible ourselves, and, when it is too technical, we've got people we trust to come in and get it right to Less is More standards.
A big thank you from us to Tess for always going above and beyond for our clients - including staying till 9pm to make it perfect. 🫶

When you are mums to 20-something students - a great way to spend time with them is to pay them for it!!! Our boys are the reason we are friends and they bring lots of energy, care, muscle and fun to Less is More. And lots of happiness to us 🥰

We haven't posted any before and afters lately so here is this week's job. Enjoy! 😊

It is the small details that count : seeing how screws and nails can be classified, polishing the furniture for auction, cleaning the family silver so it can be enjoyed and cleaning right down the back of the toaster. It matters to us to give people's belongings the respect they deserve. It is the small things that give us satisfaction on every job.

Getting your parents' house ready for sale is tough and it is easy to feel overwhelmed by the emotions and the size of the task. We love this sort of job - it doesn't take us long to make a plan and get goring to help you feel more in control.

The moment clients step into their new home and can't stop smiling is pure magic. Being part of their new chapter is what makes our work so rewarding. 🍾🥂

If your new stovetop is induction and you've had gas before, Melissa tests every single one of your pots and pans to make sure they work. Then you don't have pots you can't use taking space in your drawers.

Rachel is very excited about her new tool belt! $14 from Bunnings and it is truly a game changer. Jobs feel very different without Rachel saying "where's my Stanley knife?" Or "where's my tape gun?" every 10 minutes!!

Yay! Our first move for the year complete today. We wish everyone a happy, healthy 2026 - and a clean benchtop every day 😇
