1. Understand your move
Before calling a removalist, get your own mind clear about your move. The better you are prepared the more accurate the quote will be.
2. A trusted moving partner
There are many removalists in Sydney. However, it’s important to find one that treats you like an individual, not just another job. Your removalist should be a trusted partner. They should listen to you, acknowledge your needs, offer you solutions and advice, and accommodate you and those moving with you.
3. Keeping promises
You need to be sure that your removalist will keep their promises. One way to tell if they will is, did they get the quote back to you in the timeframe they said on the phone or website?
4. Taking you seriously
Your moving needs are important, and your removalist should take them seriously. If you find they are not taking your specifics seriously and not offering sound solutions, alarm bells should be sounding!
5. Experience matters
Your removalists should offer a service that has successfully helped others like you before.
Don’t be afraid to ask about their experience, review their testimonials not just from their website but on Google, Facebook Etc. And ask around others you might know may have moved before and have an insight into the company.
6. Guarantees
Does your furniture removalist guarantee their service? Is the guarantee backed up with a
clear explanation of how it works and its conditions?
7. The talk around town
Do your research and find out what the talk around town is about the removalists you’re
considering.
8. More than just a quote
Your quote from a removalist should be easy to understand and reflect the services you
have asked to be quoted. A well-presented quote will reassure you that your removalist
understands your moving needs. When comparing quotes be aware of different pricing
approaches used, such as depot to depot or hourly rated time estimate.
9. To insure or not to insure?
Talk to your removalist about moving insurance. Be sure your removalist has the legal authority to offer you moving insurance. If they can, be sure to carefully read the product disclosure statement so you know what the insurance does and does not cover. But before you get moving insurance. Check if your home and contents insurance policy. It may already cover you for the move.
10. Consider your options
You should be open to getting more than one quote, even if you are happy with the first
quote you get. This will help you to have more confidence in your decision.
11. A clear plan
Your removalist should be able to offer you a clear plan on how they will deliver the services
at a specified time and in line with the quote. And make sure to take advantage of free online tools such as our “Moving House Checklist” which can be seen here:
