Removalists – What to Consider As Initial Moving Tips
• Fragile items require innovative techniques such as tube wrapping in tissue paper, craft paper and corrugated cardboard.
• Paintings should be individually wrapped then packed into flat picture packs.
• Smaller cartons should be used for books, CDs and DVDs to minimise handling weights.
• Flat linen cartons protect bed linen and general clothing.
• Suits and gowns are packed in custom designed hanging cartons.
• Some items such as plasma TVs require specialist care and purpose made packaging.
• Heavy duty plastic is used to protect lounges and mattresses from dust and damage.
• Furniture covers, custom made will protect household furniture such as lounges.
• Rugs are to be rolled, secured and wrapped to avoid creasing.
• For high value items, special crates can be built for purpose for maximum safety.
• On completion, all your packaged items are labelled and numbered so that they can be cross checked at your destination.
Transit Options:
The goal of a reputable removalist is to relocate your goods promptly, safely and with the least amount of inconvenience to you. The transit options to consider are:
• Containerised transport by road, rail or sea. Having containers eliminates the unnecessary double handling of goods and is safe and cost effective. Custom built containers too can be specially built and tie rails are used to secure loads and prevent any movement.
• Purpose built furniture vans are specially equipped for the sole purpose of transporting household goods.
• It is best to directly load your belongings at your residence. This minimises the number of times your goods are handled which in turn, reduces the risk of accidental damage.
• You may even need some goods to be air freighted if you need them at your destination quickly.

Sometimes it may be necessary to store your belongings before your relocation or they may remain at your origin if you have a corporate relocation. It might be short or long term, but storing your goods at a purpose built facility with the right equipment provides you maximum safety and security. If you need storage, consider the following:
• Are the storage modules custom built?
• Does the facility have kiln-dried storage modules to prevent condensation?
• Is each consignment isolated from other people’s belongings?
• Is there 24 hour security and is the facility alarmed and electronically monitored by external security specialists?
Whether you have a local, interstate or international move, having an experienced specialist removalist company gives you a full range of service options to meet your needs. The confidence you have in your removalist starts from your first meeting with your relocation consultant and having a plan in place that helps you manage your move as easily and comfortably as possible.
