Removalists Brisbane

If you need a hand to disassemble some furniture items on the day of removal then we can do this for you, and then reassemble the items in your new home or office. The type of items that need to be disassembled, are weak furniture items that may collapse during transit or items that will not fit through doorways or around tight corners and hallways such as bed bases and extra large bookshelves. If you have booked our removalist Brisbane moving service to be charged at the hourly rate and you wish to save time and therefore money by dismantling these items yourself, be sure you’re ready for the day, make sure the furniture is broken down before we arrive. Most items do not need to be pulled apart. So if you are in doubt about any pieces of furniture please give us a call on 1300 138 851 and we can advise you. Generally, removalists in Brisbane will not transport your pot plants, but we are happy to.

1. We highly recommend that you write on each box. You should mark on the boxes which room they belong to, what is in the box, and if the items in the box are heavy or fragile. Having clearly labeled boxes will make the move, as well as unpacking so much easier. If the items in the box are fragile then it is a good idea to also write the words “top load” on the box so the removalist knows not to stack anything heavy on the box and to keep it up high in the truck.
2. If you have the time you can create an itemised list of all important items and what box or storage container they are in. This will help when you are all moved into your new house, apartment or office. Having everything left in its right place by the removalists or moving company saves you valuable time and energy.
3. Safely pack away all important and fragile items into sturdy packing boxes and secure them with proper tape. Take care to purchase quality moving boxes as well as proper packing materials as they are designed specifically for this task. If you need packaging from a removalists in Brisbane, we can sell or loan you the boxes, and we sell the packaging materials also.
4. Separate out your essentials items in marked boxes and suitcases etc.. Especially if you are leaving all of the packing to us, the professional removalists. You want to have your essentials set aside and accessible such as toiletries, clothing, car keys etc.
5. Get rid of what you don’t want or need. There is simply no better time to get rid of unneeded items and clutter then when moving into a new home or office. Think about getting rid of damaged furniture items or maybe it’s time to sell that old pool table or piano. As difficult as it may be to choose what stays and what goes, you should definitely use this opportunity to decide what goes into storage, what you sell or dispose of and what makes it into your new place of residence. What is best moving into the garbage as opposed to your bedroom, house, apartment or home office? Making this decision is a tough job, moving always is, but the earlier you make it the easier the moving process will be. You want everything streamlined when Vic Palmer’s removals company arrives.
6. Keep important items and documents such as passports and banking information safely with you or in a clearly marked box during your move.
7. We include free transit insurance for all our customers. This is a question we would highly recommend you ask when you are shopping around for a removalist.

1. The size of the home, business or storage unit you are moving from and to. If it is a multi-storey house, or an upstairs apartment or flat, it will take longer to complete the removal and/or drop off.
2. The distance between the pickup and destination. If you are only moving within Brisbane QLD, it will be a different price than moving to another city.
3. Removalists in Brisbane can charge a different rate for each day of the week. They usually charge more as the week goes on and the most expensive days are the weekend. We charge the same rate for all weekdays and only a little bit more on the weekends.
4. 2 men and a truck is the most commonly used service for moving an average home or office. However we can provide as many men or trucks needed to get the job done in good time.

1. It’s best to start with deciding what is going with you, what goes to storage and what to get rid of. Begin by going room by room and deciding what is going where and remove all items that are going into the bin.
2. Make sure you have plenty of proper boxes, packaging paper, good quality tape and marker pens on hand. Do your best to calculate how many you will need and what sizes before you go out and buy them. Remembering that your heavy or fragile items need to go in small boxes and your bulkier lighter items in to large boxes. As you pack your things away you want to know what’s in which box and where each box goes in its final destination.
3. If you live in a multi-storey house or townhouse, start at the top floor and work your way down floor by floor. If you live in a single storey house or apartment, then start from the back and work your way to the front.
4. Keep all boxes that are going in the same room together and make sure to label them as such.
5. Organise quotes from removalists in Brisbane. It is good to contact us for a quote 2 to 4 weeks prior to your removal date, however we can accomodate a move at short notice if we have availability at that time.
6. If you are pre-packing the boxes yourself, make sure that most things are packed, ready and organised at least 24 hours before your our removalist service is due to arrive. I should definitely use this period to create a strategy for the move and be 100% ready for action on the day of the move.
7. If your move will require multiple days, you want to plan what goes to your new place of residence first and what comes on other days.
