Busy Little Truck was an idea born out
of a desire to make a difference in people’s lives – in a new way.

After losing their family home in Cyclone Gabrielle, Ben and Lauren moved their 3 kids to Tauranga in search of a fresh start and new purpose.

With 20 year’s experience in the Police, Ben has always been a community-minded problem solver and for several years, he also ran a DIY Dads volunteer group in Auckland, rallying a group of mates for monthly DIY days. This also extended to helping people in the community who needed an extra hand around their homes and properties.

Ben has always loved the satisfaction that comes from deconstruction, decluttering, and tidying up messy spaces. For him, clearing clutter isn’t just about physical space – it’s about reducing stress and lightening the mental load. He gets a real buzz from seeing the positive impact a tidy space can have on someone’s mindset.

Known for being super friendly, mission-driven, and always up for a good laugh, Ben brings a people-first approach to every job. It's this combination of practical problem-solving and genuine care for others that makes BLT as much about people as it is about removing stuff.
