What do you need?

Move-out services in Christchurch

  • Moving

    Movers who handle student flats. A single room or a five-bedroom house in Ilam or Riccarton — we scope it, price it and get it shifted.

  • Cleaning

    End of tenancy cleaning, sorted. Cleaners who know exactly what landlords and property managers inspect for at handover, so you get your bond back without doing it yourself at 11pm.

  • Rubbish

    Rubbish removal and furniture disposal across Christchurch. The couch nobody wants, the broken desk, the pile in the garage that came with the flat — we'll get it taken away.

  • Storage

    Student storage over summer. Rather than hauling everything home for three months, we'll sort storage so it's waiting for you in February.

Who turns up

The people doing the work

Every contractor we use is a local Christchurch business on a signed agreement with us. We require them to carry their own insurance and show us the certificate before they take a job.

Your agreement is with FlatOut, not with them. So if something turns up broken or a job isn't up to scratch, you call us and we deal with it. You're not stuck chasing a contractor you've never met.

Leaving a hall

Moving out of a hall of residence

Halls are a different job to flats. There's no landlord inspection and usually no clean to organise — but there is a hard closing date, a room full of things that won't fit in a car, and a few hundred other people trying to do the same thing in the same week.

What most people in halls actually need is somewhere to put their gear over summer, a run to the tip for what isn't worth keeping, and a lift for the rest. We'll do the lot in one visit, and if a few of you on the same floor go in together it works out cheaper for everyone.

Who actually turns up

Some of our vetted contractors

These are local Christchurch businesses we work with. Each one is on a signed agreement with us and carries their own insurance — we sight the certificate before they take a job. Your agreement is with FlatOut, so if something isn't right you ring us, not them.

  • Cleaning Complete Clean Team
  • Storage Storage2U
  • Storage Storage King
  • Rubbish Junkman
  • Rubbish General Junk

We use others depending on the job and the week — these are the ones we come back to.

What it costs

What it costs

One price for the whole job. We come and look at what needs doing, give you an estimate on the spot, then send a written quote once we've locked it in with the people doing the work. You pay us, we pay them. The visit and the quote cost you nothing.

We don't put prices on the website, because a four-bedroom flat in Riccarton with a garage full of junk and a tidy one-bedroom aren't the same job. Ask at the visit and we'll tell you straight.
