What to Know Before You Move
- Plan Ahead for Regional Travel: Create a moving day schedule that includes rest stops and meals. If you're relocating to or from a rural area, be sure to download maps in case of poor signal.
- Declutter Before You Pack: Sort your belongings into keep, donate, and discard piles. Reducing volume now will save on moving costs and make your new space easier to organise.
- Label Boxes Clearly: Write the destination room and a brief item list on each box. Clear labelling helps the unloading process run smoothly and ensures nothing gets misplaced.
- Secure Valuables Separately: Place irreplaceable items like jewellery, IDs, and electronics in a personal carry bag. Keeping them with you prevents loss and gives added peace of mind.
- Check Access at Both Properties: Confirm parking space for the truck and clear any obstacles from driveways, stairwells, or entries. Good access avoids delays and protects your belongings from damage.

What is the average time it takes to move house?
The time it takes to move house depends on several factors, including the size of the property, access conditions, distance between locations, and how well-prepared everything is before moving day. For local moves, the process might take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours, while long-distance relocations can span one or more days. Packing, loading, transit, and unloading all contribute to the total time. If additional services like storage or disassembly are required, this adds to the timeline. Early planning, clear communication, and using professional removalists can significantly streamline the process and minimise unexpected delays or disruptions.
Should I empty my fridge and freezer before moving?
Yes, fridges and freezers should be completely emptied, defrosted, and cleaned at least 24 hours before moving day. This prevents leaks, mould, and odours during transport. Moving a fridge with food inside can damage the appliance and spoil its contents. Unplug the unit and leave the doors open to allow proper air circulation and drying. Once moved, let the fridge stand upright for several hours before switching it back on—this allows coolant fluids to settle. Transporting appliances properly prepared ensures they arrive in good working order and ready to use at your new location.
What's the best way to label moving boxes?
The most effective way to label moving boxes is to clearly mark each box with its contents and the room it belongs to using a thick marker. Label multiple sides for easy identification regardless of how boxes are stacked. Colour-coding boxes by room using tape or stickers can speed up unpacking. Indicate if items are fragile and include handling instructions like “This Side Up” or “Heavy.” Numbering boxes and keeping a written inventory is also helpful, especially for large moves. Clear, consistent labelling helps movers place boxes in the correct rooms and simplifies the unpacking process after arrival.
