Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

N8tidy - Same garden. Massive transformation

Fred from N8tidy - Neat by Nature. Tidy by Trade

Big garden transformation completed 🌿✨

We recently finished a garden clean-up with some seriously visible results — the kind of change that reminds us why we do what we do.

See walk-in video below (before/after): youtu.be...

At N8tidy, we are fully commited whatever the challenge you have:
👉 showing up on time
👉 working hard
👉 delivering quality results
👉 keeping prices fair and accessible

We genuinely want our Nelson/Tasman community to enjoy tidy, well-cared-for homes and gardens without it costing the earth. Affordable doesn’t mean cutting corners — it means caring about the people we work for.

Thanks to everyone supporting local 🙏

If you’ve got a garden that needs a reset, you know where to find us.
If you have a house that needs regular cleanup or one-off, we will exceeed your expectations.
