How can I protect my furniture when moving?

High-grade packing materials such as moving blankets, foam, shrink or bubble wraps and protective covers are ideal.

Should I empty out the contents in my furniture?

How can I move furniture myself?

Push, pull and slide items wherever possible to avoid stress on your back. For bulky items, use a dolly or lifting straps.

How do I keep parts from my dissembled furniture safe?

Put nuts, bolts or screws in a clear bag, then mark or tie it to the piece of furniture it belongs.

What could I do to make moving easier?

Know your access points to move in/out and keep clear. Find the best way to move items without damaging walls or doors.

What’s involved in relocating interstate?

The majority of interstate moves are completed via rail and belongings are transported in shipping containers.

Can I use newspaper as packing paper?

It’s best not to use newspaper to wrap individual items as it can stain them permanently. Use butcher’s paper instead.

Should I move on a weekend?

Consider that there may be higher rates for the removalist, utilities may be off and there could be a lot more people around.
