FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Many people have questions about finding or hiring a furniture removalist. Here we've tried to cover questions people most often ask when arranging a home or office relocation.
"How much does a furniture removalist cost"?
That depends on how far you're moving and the level of service you need. Some furniture removalists charge by the hour and some also give a set price.
"How long before should I book a furniture removalist"?
As soon as you know you'll be moving. The earlier you book, the better your chances of moving on the day you prefer.
"How long will my furniture take to get there"?
Local moves usually happen on one day. If you're moving interstate or moving overseas, transit times depend on your destination, freight method, volume and availability.
"How much space in a furniture removal truck"?
Most furniture removalists use a number of different vehicles to be sure you get the right furniture van for your job.
"When is the best time to move"?
Furniture removalists are busiest over the warmer months. If you can avoid moving over the peak, there's a better chance of getting movers on a date you prefer.
"Is it ok if I pack my own boxes"?
You can pack your own boxes but that might mean you aren’t covered for breakages. Check with your furniture removalist and insurance before you begin.
"Will my furniture get dirty"?
It shouldn't. A quality furniture removalist will cover your furniture and use a special wrap to protect your furniture to keep it clean.
"What happens with my home appliances"?
Your furniture removalist will treat modern appliances with special care and attention. To maximise protection, lock doors and remove or secure moving parts.
"Do I need to empty my drawers and wardrobe"?
Clothing and other items should be removed and packed separately to your furniture, crockery etc.
"Where can I get packing materials from"?
You can get all your packing materials from your local self-storage or your furniture removalist can provide them for you.
