Why Choose The Collective?

Because moving forward shouldn’t cost the earth — emotionally, environmentally, or financially. We help you move forward — with heart, purpose, and sustainability.

The Collective began as a boutique second-hand store and social enterprise, and those same values still guide everything we do:

✅ Kindness over convenience
✅ Sustainability in every service
✅ Meaningful impact for mental health in Aotearoa

The Collective is a purpose-driven Auckland business supporting people through life’s big transitions. From downsizing and senior relocation to house and deceased estate clearances, we provide practical, compassionate, and environmentally conscious moving solutions. From full-service senior relocations and estate clearances to waste-free packing with Eco Crate — we offer thoughtful, end-to-end support for life's big transitions. Whether you're downsizing, decluttering, or donating, we’re here to help make the process easier and more meaningful.

Join us in making a difference — one move, one find, one story at a time. 💚

Donate Preloved Goods

Through our online community and sales platforms, we sell donated preloved items to raise funds for mental health initiatives — with 50% of profits going directly to the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand. Many items find new homes or are lovingly repurposed, giving them a fresh opportunity to be enjoyed while supporting meaningful causes.

By donating quality items, you help sustain our community marketplace, reduce waste, and contribute to mental health support. Every donation strengthens our mission of care and connection.
