Solicit quotations from various moving firms to evaluate their offerings and fees. For those working within a strict budget, consider opting for self-service moving options or enlisting the aid of friends and relatives for the manual tasks.

Document each item along with its current location in your old residence and intended spot in your new home. This will aid in keeping you organised throughout the move.

Initiate the packing process weeks before the move to circumvent the stress and turmoil of last-minute preparations. Mark all boxes clearly for easy recognition, and you might want to think about using a colour-coding system by room or item category. We provide packing kits suited for moves of any scale, from student moves to relocating large 2-3 bedroom households.

Encase delicate items in bubble wrap and employ newspaper or packing paper to occupy any voids in the boxes. Secure the bottoms of boxes with sturdy tape, ensuring each is clearly labelled with its contents.

For items or collections you’re uncertain about keeping, such as upright pianos or extensive DVD and CD collections, storage can be a practical option. If these items remain unmissed after a few months in storage, it may be time to contemplate parting with them permanently. This approach also applies to our business storage solutions, which are ideal for entrepreneurs needing to store stock or trade show equipment until the following season. Our business storage facilities are both secure and conveniently accessible

If your move takes you beyond the vicinity of your children’s current school, initiating the transfer process early is crucial. Completing a transfer form and arranging meetings with the new school should be started as soon as possible.
