Removalists can perform everything from packing up your stuff all the way to unpacking it in your new home.
The happiness you gain from moving into a new home comes with the headache of packing and unpacking your stuff. A lot can happen in the process.
Some people say that removalists are magicians that handle all of your possessions with care and transport them safely.
A removalist offers relocation services such as packing and unpacking, transportation, loading and unloading and additional services like cleaning services for your house, office, and warehouse.
Removalists usually charge $20 an hour if you want to move only small items. For an apartment with 1 bedroom, expect to pay $25/h. Similarly for an apartment with 3 bedrooms, removalists charge $45/hour.People usually just assume that their stuff will already be insured when moving but, that’s not completely true. Even if the insurance policy covers your possessions, there might be some conditions for them. You might have to use a specific removalist for the insurance, which isn't always practical. A moving company offers some types of insurances like public liability, carriers’ liability, and motor vehicle third-party liability. But, there’s more to this. These insurances only apply if you can prove the damage or loss of your stuff. Even after that, if the specified value of the stuff is not known, their policies may not cover your items.
If your furniture gets any kind of damage, the company must take this seriously if it’s covered in your contract and recompensate you. If you get any type of insure, you can make amendments to your policy according to your needs and circumstances. You can choose a policy that gives you the full cost of your stuff if it gets lost or damaged. The cost of insurance depends upon the travelling distance, types of goods, and whether the goods need storage or not.
Moving companies don’t need to have any insurance, according to Australian law. So, they are not fully responsible for any damage to your furniture. So, make sure that you look at this in your contract and read the removalist company quote.
