Home Move Box is the leading in-home marketing channel for retailers, FMCG products and property professionals who want to connect with home movers on the first day in their new home.

We connect businesses via our welcome boxes which are delivered to home movers on moving day. The welcome boxes contain a selection or FMCG products and marketing offers from retail brands, and they can be branded with your company logo.

Our range of welcome boxes contain a great selection of treats, handy household items and retail discounts to help movers get up and running in their new home.

Our subscription welcome boxes for agents also contain a selection of treats, household offers and retail discount, but the items changes from month to month.

If you want to create a branded box for movers, you can choose a fixed set of items for your boxes.

We work with leading retailers and FMCG brands who add marketing offers and products to our welcome boxes do drive customer acquisition and product trial amongst home movers.

We also work with estate agents, house builders, mortgage advisors and mortgage lenders to thank their customers and drive customer loyalty with a welcome box as they move in.
