How To Move Out Of Your Share House Nicely
April 21, 2019 by in House Removals

Vacating share houses can either be a peaceful or stressful affair, depending on your organization and planning. Despite having friends around and expecting things to be done rightfully as you wish, everyone has their way of life. Here are a few things to do to help you move out of your share house amicably:

Notify as early as possible

Before you ring the removalists, it is important to give notice that you will be moving out. At least a month or three weeks before will be a good time. If an agreement was placed earlier, the tenant should have indicated that a notice should be given before vacating.

Do the packing the right way

Your housemates need to get that feeling that you are serious about moving out. Pack all your stuff exclusively, from personal items to work files and study items. Do this in time so that those left behind can reorganize the house. It is wise to pack using a list because it will be less stressful. Read More

What You Need To Take Care Of Before Your House Move
March 18, 2019 by in House Moving Tips

Moving from a house can be hectic and frustrating. Mainly when you dwell in a big house and do it alone. However, this does not have to be the case. Several removalist companies have made moving easy, fast and convenient. The following are things to do to have a smooth transition from one house to another.

Know When You Want to Move
Having a specific date set aside makes planning more accessible and more definite. Choose a convenient day for you, the removalist and the caretaker of your new house, if any. Some removalist companies will not work on holidays and weekends, so checking before making any permanent moving plans is best.

Know What You Want to Move
Some people consider the moving experience the best time to declutter and refurnish their house. If this is the case for you, sort out what you want and do not want. Decide whether you will get rid of the stuff you do not wish to via disposing, donating, or selling them.

Sorting and Packing
Once you remain with the things you want, it is time to sort them out. Some removalist companies help pack up your things, but handling personally fragile and sensitive items is always advisable. Read More

How to Perfectly Pack Your Boxes While House Moving
February 14, 2019 by in House Removals

It is advisable to test all your boxes if they are durable enough before packing them up. Otherwise, there might be damage if the boxes are in bad condition. A strong box has to hold and support whatever is placed in it. It should be rigid and have no tears, rips, or damage on the corners or punctures. Better safe than sorry. Here is how to pack your boxes properly when moving house:

Make reinforcements

Reinforce the corners and the bottom end of the boxes with tape. Make several lengths at the closing point. This is crucial, especially for those boxes that have been used before or are broken on the bottom end. While in transit, the content in the box will not fall through the bottom end.

Heavy items first

Make sure you begin packing the heavier load at the bottom of the boxes, and the lighter ones can be on top. This is to prevent the exertion of uneven pressure that might lead to boxes tearing while carrying them. Read More

What Not To Pack

Wait! Is there really anything to not pack when you are moving? Naturally, you need to pack everything, but some things are better left off the furniture truck.

These can go into the boot of the car so you will have them right at hand when you arrive. When you consider that this will usually be quite late in the day and you’ll all be tired and hungry, two things to not pack for the truck are food and bedding.

Food and utensils

On the day of the move, you will need to be up early to get those last minute things packed. You’ll have the crockery and cutlery that you left out for last minute use, the things from the refrigerator and your breakfast cereals. These can all go in the car so you will have them handy for the next morning – the first morning in your new home. You won’t have had time to unpack much by then, so having food and utensils handy will be a boon. Read More

Long Distance versus Local Move (things to consider)
November 22, 2018 by in Moving Interstate

Local and interstate removalists

When is a move not a move? If you’re removals are to another nearby home, that’s a simple move. If you’re removalist is taking you somewhere that’s about an 8 hour drive away, or move to another state, that’s almost a paradigm shift! So, not all moves are the same. Here are a few things to think about when you are planning that relocation.

Preparations

If the move is to a house still in the same neighbourhood and you can still visit friends frequently, or when you come to work, a change of address will not be necessary if you have a post office box. Some mail senders may have to be notified if they have to send letters to your home address, that is street and number. Of course, if you have not got a PO Box, then you will still have to notify address change to utilities, banks and government departments.

Moving to another city? Well, everything needs to be changed. Banking should be okay if you do it online. Read More
