"You have friends on island"

 E Komo Mai (welcome) to
Hawaii Relocation Concierge!
 
Aloha! We’re Dave and Tammy Bucknell.We made the exciting move to Hawaii Island in August 2018—right in the middle of the volcanic eruption and just days before Hurricane Lane, with our kitty in tow!

Thankfully, we were lucky to have “friends on the island” who lent us a helping hand.Before our arrival, our new home had been sitting vacant for months. We quickly realized that scheduling basic maintenance—like lawn care and water catchment services—wasn’t easy, especially from over 2,500 miles away. Finding reliable and trustworthy help was a real challenge.

Once we settled in, we embraced our new community, lending a hand to others as a way to pay it forward. Over time, we noticed a pattern—many people, both new and long-time residents, were still facing the same struggles we had. They needed services that simply didn’t exist.

That’s when we had an idea!

In 2020, we launched Hawaii Relocation Concierge to fill this gap, offering personalized, trustworthy services to make life easier for those moving to or living on Hawaii Island.

Whether you’re new to the island or a long-time resident, we provide the assistance you need to navigate tasks that can feel overwhelming.Our mission is simple: to offer the same support we once needed—just like having “friends on the island” to help.Take a look at our services below—we’d love to make your transition to island life smooth and stress-free!MY BY CLICKING BUTTON BELOW 
Please take the Pono Pledge at:  https://www.ponopledge.com

I pledge to be pono (righteous) on the island of Hawaii.
I will mindfully seek wonder,
but not wander where I do not belong.
I will not defy death for breathtaking photos,
or venture beyond safety.
I will malama (care for) land and sea,
and admire wildlife only from afar.
Molten lava will mesmerize me,
but I will not disrupt its flow.
I will not take what is not mine,
leaving lava rocks and sand as originally found.
I will heed ocean conditions,
never turning my back to the Pacific.
When rain falls ma uka (inland),
I will remain high above ground, out of rivers and streams.
I will embrace the island’s aloha spirit,
as it embraces me.
Lawe i ka maalea i kuonoono.
"Take Wisdom and Make it Deep.
