Moving is a stressful time for many people. It can also be rather expensive. One way a lot of people have saved on costs in the short term is by moving their furniture, however, this may lead to higher expenses in the long run, for several reasons. Many people across Sydney, whether it’s in Sydney’s Inner West, or finding removalists in Western Sydney,  Here are 8 reasons in favour of using a removalists service for your move. 

Risk of Damage

Removalists do this work day in, and day out. They know how to handle your heavy or fragile items. And they know how to stack them/ strap them in the truck so they are less likely to get damaged on the way. They know how to prepare and pack your electronic devices when moving. If you attempt to move your stuff, you might find yourself dropping or damaging things.

Risk of Injury

Let’s face it, most of us don’t know how to lift or carry heavy or bulky items well and this can increase the risk of injury. Most of us end up putting our backs out or spraining our ankles whilst moving house if we’re not careful. To avoid injury, let the professionals do the heavy lifting and carrying!

Time is Money

So you think that you want to save money on your move? Consider the cost of petrol and tolls if you use your car, plus hiring a van costs if you do this. The cost of taking days off work, or the potential damage caused to your possessions and your body by doing it, and suddenly these costs fully skyrocket. Get a high-quality, reasonably priced removalist and you will SAVE money long term. 

Those Pesky Stairs

The worst part of moving is not just getting your stuff out of your house or apartment, it can be especially challenging when you have to navigate stairs or tight elevators, especially when it comes to moving a piano. However, you can avoid all of these hassles by hiring a professional removalist who is experienced in handling these types of challenging moves.

Insurance

Let’s be honest here. Sometimes things can get damaged or broken on the way. A removalist will have insurance to cover the costs of repairing or replacing if this does happen.

They Already Have All The Equipment

Wondering how to get your fridge safely up and down the stairs? Try the trolley that all removalists have with the tri-wheel structure making it a cinch. Not only this, but it means you can keep your fridge upright, and the fluids don’t mix up too much. 

Faster, and More Efficient

As mentioned before, professionals like your efficient removalists in North Sydney have done this day in, and day out. They know how to play the giant game of Tetris to fit your stuff perfectly, and safely, on the back of their truck. They know how to lift and how to be quick. They’ve got all the right tools. They know how to take it all back off again. 

It Removes All Of Your Stress

Moving is always a stressful time. If you have to organise your hire truck and move your heavy items, you will find yourself becoming more and more stressed. You might miss things on your list of things to do for your move. However, if you can take this particular stress away, you can find yourself ticking through your to-do list with far less stress, and also taking fewer days off work, which, let’s face it, will reduce your stress levels when getting back to your email inbox at work!

We hope we’ve convinced you enough to allow you to hire a removalist so that you can keep your move as stress-free and smooth as possible!
