Moving home can feel like you’re juggling tea cups while riding a unicycle, thrilling yet perilous. With our proven process, you’ll glide from old front door to new with zen-like ease (and maybe even time for a celebratory cuppa in between).

1. Prepare Like a Pro (6–8 Weeks Out)

Download our printable moving checklist and slot each task into your calendar. At this stage:

• Book a pre‑move survey: schedule a free video survey so we can quote accurately and flag access or parking permits early.
• Reserve your removal date: our home moving team books up quickly during school holidays and month‑ends.
• Gather records: school transcripts, medical/dental files, vet reports if you have furry family members.

2. Choose Quality, Sustainable Packing Materials

Sturdy, eco‑friendly supplies save breakages and the planet:

• FSC‑certified boxes, paper tape, corrugated wrap
• Reusable plastic crates (ask about our crate‑hire service)
• Old towels or jumpers re‑imagined as padding. Zero waste!

Prefer a white‑glove approach? Our professional packing service handles it all, including custom‑built crates for artwork and antiques.

3. Declutter, Donate & Save Money

Every kilo you eliminate trims fuel costs and cardboard waste. Try the 3‑box method. keep, recycle, donate. For items you love but can’t fit, our household storage keeps them secure and insured.

4. Strategic Packing Hacks

1. Start with rarely‑used rooms (attic, guest room) and seasonal gear.
2. Label two sides of each box with Room • Contents • Priority.
3. Create an ‘Open First’ box: kettle, biscuits, phone chargers, toilet roll.
4. Photograph electronic setups to speed up re‑assembly.

5. Notify Utilities & Services

A fortnight before moving day:

• Energy, broadband and waste collection: arrange transfer or switch.
• Financial institutions and insurance: update addresses online.
• Redirect post via An Post Mail Redirection.

6. Moving Day Mastery

Your dedicated supervisor ensures safety protocols, from mattress covers to fragile stickers, are followed to the letter. Track progress via our customer portal while enjoying a stress‑free coffee.

• Keep passports, keys and medication in a belt bag, not in the van.
• Arrange pet/child care. (We’ve seen toddlers label the dog!)

7. After‑Move Essentials

Start with beds and the fridge. Recycle used boxes.
