Logistics of moving...

When moving house there are multiple things that need to be taken into consideration, and many of  these can be simply overlooked as you are caught 

up in the very process itself. One of the most important of these is notifying all respective organisations that you are moving.The first that come to mind are the utilitiy companies eg, water, gas, electricity, internet & telephone.

Primarily you need these services disconnected at you existing address & 

reconnected at your new address, bearing in mind too that this can generally take up to 3-5 working days. Secondly insurance companies particularly for

household & contents, car & health insurance. And lastly the banks, tax office,

electoral commission & Post office so as to have your mail redirected. There are numerous sites online that can assist you with this very process. And whilst online it always pays to check out Removalists Choice Australia one of the most comprehensive national removalist directories, so as to be sure you have a removalist booked well in advance of your move & can gain 2-3 quotes on the actual price of the move & compare. Don't forget to ask about special discounted weekday prices where with a big move you can make a notable saving.

Yes...Boxes matter...

Best idea is to always use boxes that are not soft & worn out, and ideally when stacking them it certainly helps if they are all the same size so as to stack neatly on top of each other. remember not to pack your boxes to heavy, generally under 15 kg is an accepted weight. you can purchase port a robe boxes for clothing, boxes for documents and files too. Now all you need is a removalist and the best place to find a reputable one is removalistchoice where you can browse by region nationwide and find one in your area which is always the best move particularly when you can save some good money on depot fees, the paid time  you are charged by the removalists driving time from the depot or the previous job they are coming from.

Boat Storage...Wet Docks or Storage Racks...

Dry Doc storage is increasingly becoming more popular with Australian boating enthusiasts more & more these days. The storage capacity can be much greater than the conventional style using a marina. Some of the positives are that the costs can be a lot cheaper & greater security too, but most importantly your boat is not subject to the harsh weather conditions also often easier to carry out maintenance & repairs on a boat out of the water. If your looking for boat storage in and around Perth click here for a choice of both dry & wet dock boat storage. Really it all comes down to the size of the boat & if you use your boat most days of the week, wet or marina storage would be the best option for you, but if your only taking your boat out say 2 weekends per month then dry dock storage is for you.

 Be sure you use a reputable removalist company...

Let's face it, there is always a rouge element in any of the service industries, and the removalist industry is certainly no exception to the rule. There's business's out there that are happy to take your furniture for a ride & that includes you as well. Best idea right from the start is to be sure you get yourself a minimum of 3 quotes. Are your goods insured whilst in transit & if something is broken is it going to be replaced. Always quiz them about the depot fee, when really they may be just coming from a job 5-10 minutes away in a neighbouring suburb. Do they charge by the half hour or do they round up 33 minutes to a full hour. You also don't want them to be taking their lunch break 45 minutes into the job on time you are paying them for either. Well If things don't seem just quite right visit Removalistchoice an online directory where you can always find a reputable removals business, even in your area. And most of the companies listed on the site are members of AFRA (Australian Furniture Removalists Association) whereby the business's have to abide by strict procedures & guidelines.

Moving Interstate?   You should consider backloading...& save...

Even If your not moving interstate & moving from a metro area to a regional area or vice versa, you should give some strong consideration to backloading. When a moving truck returns from it's destination it is more often than not carrying an empty load, effectively using some of the space on that truck with your furniture & only paying for the space you use is backloading. In some case's you will be sharing the space with someone else's furniture, so its always a good idea to tag items & have boxes clearly marked. Its fair to say that this does not suit all cases, so if your going to use the conventional mode of moving & you do need a removalist a good tip is to visit Removalistschoice and find a removalist in your area. From an environmental point of view you can feel pretty good about the backloading, as you reduce your carbon footprint with one less truck on the road. One last advantage is that you can generally carry out backloading at very short notice too.
