What our customer say
“Move The Earth have provided reliable electrical and automation support at our Lactalis Nambour site. Nick brings a high level of technical knowledge and practical experience, particularly in industrial electrical systems and fault finding. Their work is well organised, safety focused, and completed to a high standard, making them a trusted contractor for our operations.”
Matthew Heffernan
Lactalis Nambour
“Move The Earth installed a smart automation system to optimise our solar power and control when our hot water system heats. The HWS now only runs when we have excess solar being exported to the grid, which has made a noticeable difference to our energy bills. Nick explained everything clearly, set it up neatly, and the system has worked exactly as promised. We couldn’t be happier with the result.
