Getting Set for Relocation
- Plan Ahead for Regional Travel: Double-check drive times, rural road conditions, and forecasted weather. Have essentials like snacks, chargers, and water on hand in case delays pop up during the longer drive.
- Declutter Before You Pack: Don't pay to move items you don't use. Take the opportunity to clean out cupboards, wardrobes, and sheds—keeping only what's necessary or meaningful for your next chapter.
- Label Boxes Clearly: Avoid confusion by writing the destination room on all sides of each box. Adding arrows for upright positioning or fragile notices helps prevent damage during loading and unloading.
- Secure Values Separately: Pack jewellery, electronics, keys, and sensitive documents into a personal bag or case. Moving day can be chaotic—having these items with you keeps them protected and easy to find.
- Check Access at Both Properties: Evaluate driveways, parking zones, and entry points. If moving from or to a property with tight access, let your movers know ahead of time to plan truck sizes or parking permits.

What should I look for when choosing a removalist?
When choosing a removalist, look for experience, licensing, insurance coverage, and customer reviews. It's important to confirm they offer the services you need—such as packing, storage, or interstate moves—and that they’re equipped for your type of relocation (e.g. home, office, or regional). Ask for a written quote, clarify what's included, and check whether they charge extra for stairs, long carry distances, or heavy items. A good removalist will be transparent, punctual, and willing to customise their service to suit your needs.
How far in advance should I book my move?
Ideally, you should book your removalist at least 2–4 weeks in advance—especially during busy periods like school holidays, end-of-month dates, or summer. This allows time to coordinate packing, storage (if needed), and confirm your preferred move date. If you're moving long-distance or interstate, it's even more important to allow extra time for planning and logistics. Booking early can also give you access to better availability and more competitive pricing.
What's the best way to prepare for moving day?
To prepare for moving day, start by decluttering and organising your belongings in advance. Pack non-essentials early and label all boxes clearly with the room name and contents. Keep important items like medications, documents, and valuables in a separate bag you take with you. Confirm access and parking at both locations, and let your removalist know about any tricky stairs, narrow hallways, or oversized furniture. Good communication and early preparation will help your move run smoothly and reduce stress on the day.
