Different ways you can move house

Moving house is an inevitable task that most of us will have to endure at least once in our lifetimes. The size and number of items that we accrue over the years can make moving a difficult and sometimes stressful task.

There are a number of different ways that you can move. Which option you choose will mostly depend on the number and size of items you have to move.

FRIENDS & FAMILY

If you only have a few small items why not have your family or friends pitch in to help you out. If a friend or family has a large enough car you may be able to fit most of your items in a couple of trips. This is one of the cheapest options there is to move, but be prepared because one day your friends and family might ask you to return the favour!

HIRE A TRAILER

If you have some larger items such as a queen bed or kitchen table that won’t fit into your car you could look at the option of hiring a trailer for the day. There are a number of companies that offer this service for a nominal daily rate. However you will need to ensure that the car you are using has a towbar so that you can tow the trailer.

HIRE A TRUCK

If you are moving a 2-3 bedroom house or larger, you are probably going to need a truck to help move all your gear. Hiring a truck is a great option as you should be able to move all your household items in one trip. You can hire a truck from a number of different hire companies – we recommend using Budget Truck Rental (www.budget.com.au). With hiring a truck you will need to ensure that the person driving the truck has the correct licence. Some larger trucks require that a person has an MR licence or higher.

HIRE A REMOVALIST

If you can’t find enough people to help you move or if you are moving a very large house you could look at hiring removalists to help you with your move. Removalists will normally charge by the hour for the use of their truck and two or more of their men. If you are looking for a removalist to help you move, we recommend our friends – The Smooth Movers (www.thesmoothmovers.com.au).
