Here are some moving house tips – Break down items which come apart easily that you won’t need to use in the lead up to moving house.

– Put any removable hardware (like screws and bolts) from dismantled furniture into a clear plastic bag or container. Tape the bags to larger pieces of furniture or safely secure your container elsewhere.

– Flat pack or dismantle as much as possible

– Consolidate smaller objects that could go missing into a larger box

– Use vacuum seal bags for out-of-season clothing

– Make use of baskets, laundry bins and suitcases by packing things inside them (but never pack your treasures inside furniture, such as cupboards and drawers)

– Pack odd-shaped items in larger cartons to secure and stack them more efficiently

– Remove accessories from sporting equipment (like bike pumps, water bottles) and pack together

– Pack plates upright. Stack plates vertically, like in the dishwasher, as they are less likely to break

– Take a picture. Before dismantling any computer equipment or electronics, photograph the cords and connections to help you remember where all the wires go

– Don’t risk spills. Drain garden hoses and tighten the lids on all jars or bottles in the pantry before packing

– Look sharp. Take special care when packing sharp objects, ensuring sharp edges are well insulated

– Remove BBQ hoods, grills, hotplates and gas burners. Line a suitable carton with heavy duty plastic and place all BBQ components in a box of their own. Gold Coast Removals

– Do not pack dangerous goods such as corrosive, flammable, explosive, spontaneously combustible, toxic, oxidising or water-reactive goods. Items like LPG gas bottles and mower fuel fall into this category.
