Your Moving Checklist

A little preparation makes moving day faster and smoother, and helps keep your costs down. Here’s what to do and when.

When you book

• Call or message us to book your move
• Send us a list of your larger items (beds, wardrobes, fridge, piano and so on)
• Confirm your pick-up and drop-off addresses
• Confirm your moving date and preferred start time
• Let us know about stairs, lifts or tight access at either end

In the weeks before

• Sort through your things – sell, donate or throw out what you don’t need
• Pack small items into boxes and clearly mark anything fragile
• Start using up food in the fridge, freezer and pantry
• For apartments, book the lift and loading bay for moving day
• Check your property settlement or key collection times

The day before

• Disconnect the washing machine and let the hoses drain
• Disconnect BBQ gas bottles – we can’t carry these
• Empty and defrost the fridge and freezer
• Prepare other appliances for the move

On moving day

• Make sure there’s parking for our truck close to the door at both ends
• Keep valuables, documents, medication and keys with you
• Do a final walk-through before we leave
