Regional Move Readiness Tips
- Plan Ahead for Regional Travel: Long-distance moves can take time—check weather forecasts, pack road snacks, and plan for fuel or rest stops so the day flows smoothly without added stress.
- Declutter Before You Pack: Moving is easier with less stuff. Go room by room and remove anything you no longer use—it’ll lighten the load and make unpacking much quicker.
- Label Boxes Clearly: A quick note on each box can save hours later. Write the destination room and a few key contents on the top and side for easy viewing.
- Secure Valuables Separately: Keep items like jewellery, important documents, and chargers in a separate, easy-to-access bag. That way, they stay with you and don’t get mixed in with general boxes.
- Check Access at Both Properties: Make sure driveways are clear, lifts are booked (if needed), and large furniture can fit through doors. A quick check prevents problems on moving day.

How are moving costs calculated by removalists?
Removalist costs are typically calculated based on several key factors. Local moves are often charged hourly, usually depending on the number of movers and size of the truck. For long-distance or interstate moves, pricing is commonly based on total volume (in cubic metres) or weight, plus the distance travelled. Extra charges may apply for packing services, stairs or difficult access, heavy or fragile items, storage, and insurance. Some companies also offer flat-rate quotes for full-service moves. To get an accurate estimate, it’s best to request an in-home or virtual assessment and a detailed breakdown of what’s included.
What items should I move myself instead of using removalists?
Some items are better kept with you during a move for safety, legal, or sentimental reasons. These include important documents (passports, birth certificates), personal electronics, medications, jewellery, cash, and small valuables. Most removalists also won’t transport hazardous items like fuel, aerosols, paint, or chemicals due to safety regulations. Perishable food, live animals, and certain plants may also be excluded, especially for interstate moves. If something is irreplaceable or highly valuable, it’s often safer to transport it yourself. Always check your removalist’s restricted items list and plan accordingly to avoid issues on moving day.
How far in advance should I start planning a move?
Planning a move should ideally begin four to six weeks in advance, especially if you’re moving long-distance or during peak periods like school holidays or month-end. Start by decluttering, gathering quotes, and booking your removalist early to secure your preferred date. You’ll also need time to arrange packing supplies, update your address with services and providers, and organise utilities at your new property. If storage is required or access is restricted at either end, more lead time may be needed. A well-planned timeline allows for fewer surprises and a smoother, less stressful moving experience from start to finish.
