Move to the Regions Hero Image

Come join us!

Business is booming in the Regions!

We would like to assist more people and families to move to one of our beautiful regional towns.

There are many benefits of living in the regions: Earnings are the same as the big cities, costs are way less.

There is less traffic, it’s cheaper to rent or buy a house, there are great schools with many sporting opportunities, and polytechs and universities are accessible. Overall a great lifestyle, better than the cities.

We offer full-time cleaning businesses, and family sized businesses. We are looking for keen couples or families who would like to have their own successful business, with the back up, training and support of a strong national company.

We have immediate start opportunities available in many South and North Island regional towns.

 

Relocate to one of our smaller regions

CrestClean has successfully relocated more than 50 families and couples to Cromwell, Alexandra, Queenstown, Wanaka, Invercargil, Nelson, Blenheim, Hawkes Bay, Whangarei, Wairarapa, Kapiti Coast, Palmerston North, North Harbour, Hamilton, and Taupo… where each family has a busy CrestClean business.

Move to any of our high-demand regions, establish a CrestClean franchise and you’ll receive $3,500 towards relocation costs.

You can see the lifestyle of some our recent franchise owners that have moved to the South Island in the featured stories below.
