Furniture Removals on Time and on Budget

Are you moving into a new home? If so, you're going to be up for some stress and elbow grease as you:

• Organise packing containers and materials
• Physically pack up items that are going to move with you
• Sell, give away or throw away items no longer required
• Organise the removal and delivery of your possessions to the new address, and
• Unpack and move your belongings into place after delivery.

Unless you've got a mate with a truck and a couple of physically strong friends, you're probably going to need some help moving your personal items, household goods and furniture to your new accommodation. And if your budget is restricted, then you'll also be looking for a cost-effective solution.

Planning the Furniture Removals Process

The first thing to do is set a date for moving day and then work backwards to set the key tasks you have to get done. You will need to:

• Put together a list of large heavy furniture items that may require special care – e.g. pool tables, pianos, heavy sideboards and buffets
• List valuable items for insurance purposes (e.g. jewellery and antique items)
• Research and book a removalist in advance
• Make sure your insurance is up to date and your possessions adequately covered, and
• Make sure your furniture removals company is properly licensed and insured.

When you discuss these arrangements with your removalist you should get straight answers on any issues, costs and get the feeling they are knowledgeable and trustworthy.

Sorting and Decluttering

Smart people know that the art of packing goes hand in hand withthe art of decluttering. Be ruthless as you sort through articles. If you haven't used them in some time, or have forgotten they even existed, it's time to think about getting rid of them. Reducing the number of movables will not only save on packing and removing costs, you might even make a little money by selling some pieces.

Before the big move, you may want to pack some personal, intimate or sentimental items separately, and then leave the rest to your removalist. If you need boxes and packaging materials delivered to your home beforehand, a good removalist will do this for you.
