Need strong backs and a van: moving Matthew to safer housing
Moving day on Sunday: we need anyone with a van and ideally a van.
🇳🇿 Manukau, Auckland, New Zealand1,215 views
After my landlord sold the building, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Manukau, and the lease starts on Sunday. I have two children, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for anyone with a van for about four hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the fourth floor walk-up and the new place has just one flight of stairs. We'll do it in two trips. Lunch and cold drinks are on me.
I know this is a lot to ask of strangers. I'd be happy to share references from my landlord and my employer.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thanks for sharing this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Boulogne-Billancourt so I could bring a meal. Take care
Stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Oakland donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Oakland.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
