It is advisable to book your interstate move at least 4-6 weeks in advance. This timeframe allows for adequate planning and preparation, ensuring our interstate removalists on the Gold Coast available on your desired moving date. Booking early can also provide you with a better chance of securing a more convenient moving schedule.
Preparing your appliances for an interstate move involves cleaning and drying them thoroughly to prevent mould and odours. Disconnect and secure any hoses and ensure appliances are empty. For refrigerators and freezers, defrost them in advance and clean the interior. It’s also advisable to secure any moving parts or doors with tape or straps. Check the manufacturer’s guidelines for specific moving instructions for each appliance.
The best way to label your boxes for an interstate move is to use a clear and consistent labelling system. Write the contents and the room destination on each box. You might also consider using colour-coded labels or stickers for easy identification. For fragile items, clearly mark the boxes as “Fragile” and indicate which side should face up.
