Planning & Preparation

Planning & Preparation when moving is always an essential thing to keep in mind. If one does, some common mistakes that can give one headache can be avoided.

Create a moving plan:

When moving, it's simple to underestimate the task at hand and put off some tasks, which frequently leads to damage, higher expenditures, and stress. Making a moving plan is a simple technique you can use to help you avoid them.

A&R Removals can help you by clicking onto our checklist list

A&R Removals have been Port Macquarie Furniture Removalists for over 16 years, you will find that we can be an excellent source of advice and support on the best way to prepare for your move.

Overestimate the time it will take:

The first and greatest piece of moving advise we can provide you is to start planning far in advance of when you anticipate being needed. Being proactive might help you avoid last-minute expenses and minimise stress. As soon as you become aware that a relocation is approaching, start by purging as many useless, undesirable, excessively large, and outdated objects as you can. Put all of these things in a pile in the spare room or the shed, then organise them later.

With their portable furniture and junk removal services, A&R Removals can be of assistance.

A box is a box, isn’t it?

The pre-pack is the following stage. The false notion that plastic storage tubs are the finest containers for packing one's possessions for transport has long been known to us. They are not advised since they are prone to breaking when stacked on top of one another in a truck or while being moved about on a trolley. This obviously damages the contents and makes the move more challenging. Striped sisal bags are another popular packing material. They store well in your home's cabinets and garage; they don't usually move well. Rupturing and spilling their contents on the ground, not to mention the zippers and handles breaking easily. Using cardboard boxes made from recycled materials will make the packing of the 3D jigsaw puzzle (which is the truck) take longer. Fruit boxes can transfer the odour from the previous contents.

Because they are uniform in size and make truck loading so much simpler and quicker, standard size packing cartons should always be used. This can actually lower the cost of your move because it makes moving much easier. Professional moving boxes. Regular tea chest cartons and book/wine/crystal cartons. The regular boxes are intended for heavier, bulkier things like Tupperware, large pots and pans, apparel, soft furniture. For smaller, heavier things like books, china, and fragile goods, use the smaller book, wine, and crystal containers. Additionally, we keep Porta-robes, specially designed Plasma Tv cartons, Picture/Mirror cartons, butcher paper. Bubble wrap in store to help you move your hanging clothing out of your closets.

Use the professionals:

Alternatively, we can offer a full prepack service as well as a valet unpack if you'd prefer to have the pre-packaging done for you. You just need to enquire if you want advice on this service. It's not a good idea to choose the removalist based solely on the lowest quote because this is likely to bring you a lot of headaches in the long run. People typically learn about the true causes of el cheapo removalists' low prices too late.

How would you feel if, on the morning of your move, your removalist simply didn't show up or, even worse, showed up with men who appeared to be on parole? Murphy's law states that they will break your most priceless, valuable possessions. You don't have much reason to feel confident hiring these kinds of removalists because they are frequently rude. To have much professional moving experience or equipment, and most definitely unable to legally offer you any insurance coverage for your peace of mind. You'll discover that moving with professionals actually benefits you for the reasons listed above. All reputable removalists in Australia are members of the Australian Furniture Removalist Association.
