Nice Neighbour: Dave Murdoch - 'They don't come better!'

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Dave Murdoch of Tauranga was nominated by Ian Smith for being quite simply, the nicest neighbour!

"Dave next door is the best - we live in an apartment block in the CBD and every day he gets up and cleans the driveway- always puts out everyone’s rubbish bins and scrubs them out every time they are emptied. He cleaned around our pool area after a storm recently as we were busy at work. He is always first to help others whenever he can whether they have an issue with their unit or a stranger having car trouble out on the street - They don’t come better!"

If you have a Nice Neighbour, don't keep it to yourself. You might win a $25 Prezzy® card each and a shoutout on Stuff. Go on, nominate them now!
