Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
When should I call a moving company?
The earlier, the better. It's wise to give your moving company from four to six weeks' notice, if possible. The more lead time you can give, the more likely we will be able to meet your preferred delivery schedule. All moving companies, for their standard type of service, require varying notice of your pending move. Additionally, if your move is arranged in advance often your price will be more competitive and you will have more flexibility when choosing the date of your relocation.
How do I obtain a moving quote?
There are a number of ways you can source a price for your move. Whether you moving locally, interstate or overseas it is always better to have a consultant call at your home to estimate your move costs. This will ensure the moving company can assess the access to your property estimating the time required for collection. On site estimates also mean a fixed price to ensure there are no surprises on the moving day.

Checklist - The Day Before Moving?
Wash and dry all dishes for packing. Clean out your medicine cabinet and take all unwanted medication to your chemist for proper disposal. Decide what items you want packed together, for example all your linen, or children's toys, and group these items together for the removalists. Check all your drawers and remove any heavy items, liquids or breakables. Remove all food from your refrigerator and freezer. Defrost both compartments and wipe the interiors dry, then leave them for 24hrs to air.
Checklist - On the Day of Your Move?
As soon as the removals crew arrives, tell them whether they can park their vehicles in your driveway whilst they are being packed. The same applies for the new location you are moving to. Tell the removals crew what items you will need first on your arrival, as they will pack these items last for transport. Arrange for any small children to be kept out of the removalist's way. Be on hand when the removalists arrive. If you can't be there, please arrange for someone to take your place.
