When it comes to moving in Canberra, your furniture and possessions will be handled with the utmost care by trained moving professionals./p>
Your moving team will arrive on the scheduled date and begin to protect your items with the necessary moving blankets and packing materials. Once satisfied, your items will be loaded and secured in the moving truck ready for transport./p>
Tip: Clearly label boxes with the room they belong to in your new home. This makes unpacking much easier, especially in multi-level homes common in suburbs like Tuggeranong and Belconnen./p>
Once your furniture and belongings have arrived at the new property, they’ll be carefully unloaded from the moving truck and placed into each room by your removalists team. If you’re moving to areas like Weston Creek, where steep driveways and hilly terrain can add complexity, your experienced movers will ensure a smooth transition, even in more challenging locations./p>
Packing and unpacking services are also available to save time on both sides of the move./p>
Your Canberra removalists will handle all the physical work, including lifting and loading large items. From navigating the winding streets of the Parliamentary Triangle to moving in high-density areas like Braddon, our skilled removalists ensure every item is transported safely.
To best look after your belongings, and help the Canberra removalists team, it’s important not to overpack your boxes. Aim for each box to weigh no more than 20kg to avoid any damage from overly heavy boxes pressing down on others. If you have weighty items needing boxing, just mark those boxes as HEAVY. The moving team will strategically use these as the foundational layer in the moving truck to shield your fragile items above. Additionally, ensure that boxes containing breakable items like plates and glasses are clearly marked with FRAGILE on both the sides and top.
No matter the specifics of your move, our teams of removalists Canberra are fully equipped and skilled to transport your items securely. We handle everything from lifting large, heavy, or awkwardly-shaped furniture, to navigating narrow hallways and multiple flights of stairs.
Your Canberra removalists team will prioritise the protection of your home during the move. Taking special precautions to safeguard your carpets, wooden floors, bannisters, and doors before we start moving your furniture.

Furniture disassembly and assembly: This service is for furniture that cannot be moved as a whole piece due to its size or shape, or if it is vulnerable to damage during transit.

Vehicle transport: When relocating interstate, or when multiple vehicles need moving, consider using specialist car transport or motorcycle transport services.
