Our tips for a smooth move
Wondering how to go start the process of moving? We’ve got you covered. Here is our fool-proof guide to a stress-free move:
1. Assess how many items you will need to move
Many people choose to recycle, throw out, or donate some of their personal possessions before moving home. After all, relocating represents a great excuse to start afresh and get rid of items you no longer need.
Once you have conducted a clear-out, you can examine how much stuff you would like to transport to your new place. If you’re hoping to move more than a few boxes, it is well worth investing in professional removals services such as those offered by Caloundra Removals and Storage. While it may seem like a good idea to enlist the help of friends and family, shifting lots of furniture can be much more difficult than expected and could even cause relationships to fracture.
2. Select a convenient time
Try to conduct your move at a time when you’re relatively free from obligations or a hectic work schedule. While we aim to offer speedy services to help you resume normal life ASAP, unpacking boxes and arranging furniture in a new home will inevitably take up some of your time. Remember – moving home is a milestone and you should allow yourself to enjoy it!
3. Work closely with your professional movers
Our movers are trained to work with clients to ensure their every need is met. Don’t be afraid to negotiate with our experts regarding issues such as removal times or packing methods. Ensuring that both parties are on the same page will help to reduce feelings of stress and speed up the removals process. Just remember to ensure you are fully contactable on moving day.
4. Leave your old property in good condition
Before waving goodbye to your old home or office, remember to ensure that all switches are turned off, windows are shut, and doors are locked. You must also retain all the relevant documents regarding the property handover.
5. Bask in your new property
Once all of your possessions are sitting in your new place, take a few moments to revel in the feeling of a fresh start. Our operatives love the satisfying feeling of helping people start a new chapter in their lives, so feel free to give them a high five once the move is complete!

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I empty out the contents of my furniture?
Yes. It is very rare that goods can be left in drawers and cupboards. You can however, pack things like soft toys, pillows and doonas into toy boxes or drawers.
How can I protect my furniture when moving?
We will look after this for you. Our service provides heavy duty plastic covers for fabric items, packing of TVs, wrapping of all furniture in thick removalist blankets and dismantling of furniture that should travel as the complete item.
What is the easiest way to move a sofa?
Depending on the sofa’s size, weight and bulk, straps may be required for movement. Our team has all the necessary equipment to move your furniture quickly and the protective material to ensure upholstery stays in good condition throughout the moving process.
Is it cheaper to move during the week?
Depending on your circumstances, moving on a weekday may be more cost-effective. As many people move on weekends, we also have more availability for weekday moves, so we’re likely to have your date free at short notice. If you get in touch with our team, we can provide an accurate quote for your move on whichever day you prefer.

How far in advance should I book furniture removal services?
It’s best to book your move at least two to four weeks in advance to secure your preferred date, especially during peak periods like weekends or the end of the month. The more notice you provide, the easier it is to schedule a time that fits your needs. During busy times on the Sunshine Coast, last-minute bookings can be harder to accommodate. If you’re planning a larger household move or relocating during school holidays or public holidays, earlier bookings are strongly recommended to ensure a smooth process.
What items can furniture movers help me relocate?
Furniture movers can assist with relocating a wide range of items, including beds, lounges, wardrobes, dining tables, desks, appliances, outdoor settings, and more. Whether you’re moving a single room, an entire household, or select items to storage, they have the equipment and experience to transport furniture safely. For heavier items like pianos or pool tables, it’s important to mention them in advance so the team can arrive prepared with appropriate handling tools and support.
Do I need to dismantle furniture before the movers arrive?
Most professional furniture removalists on the Sunshine Coast can disassemble and reassemble basic furniture such as bed frames, tables, or modular lounges if needed. However, it’s helpful to let them know ahead of time if large or complex items require dismantling. Some clients prefer to handle basic disassembly themselves to save time on moving day. If you’re unsure whether something needs to be taken apart, the removal team can assess and advise during the initial consultation or upon arrival.
Is furniture removal insured during the move?
Reputable furniture removal providers generally include basic transit insurance, which covers loss or damage caused by incidents during transport, such as collisions or shifting items in the truck. However, this level of cover may not extend to accidental damage during loading or unloading, or to items packed by the owner. If you’re moving high-value pieces like antiques, artwork, or electronics, it’s wise to check if full insurance is offered or to arrange your own contents insurance to supplement the cover. Always clarify with your removalist what is and isn’t included, and ask for documentation outlining the insurance policy. If a claim becomes necessary, understanding the process in advance will help avoid unnecessary stress after your move.
Can I move houseplants and fragile items with the rest of my furniture?
Most furniture movers can transport houseplants and fragile items, but they require special care. Plants should be well-watered but not dripping and securely contained in open-top boxes. Fragile items like mirrors, glass tops, and artwork should be packed with padding and clearly labelled. It’s helpful to let the movers know in advance if you have breakable or temperature-sensitive items so they can load them appropriately to avoid damage during transit.
What happens if access to my home is difficult for the moving truck?
Access challenges, such as narrow driveways, steep inclines, limited street parking, or tight stairwells, can impact the ease and duration of a furniture removal. In such cases, movers often conduct a site assessment ahead of time or request photos to plan accordingly. If the truck can’t park directly outside, they may use smaller shuttle vehicles or manual handling equipment like dollies and trolleys to transport items between the home and vehicle. In apartment complexes, booking lift access in advance helps avoid delays. If your move involves a particularly difficult layout, informing the movers beforehand allows them to bring extra crew or equipment. This ensures both safety and efficiency, reducing the risk of damage to your belongings or property.
Do removalists provide packing materials and boxes?
Yes, most furniture removal companies offer a range of packing supplies, including boxes, tape, bubble wrap, mattress protectors, and moving blankets. These can be purchased or rented as part of your service. Some movers also offer full or partial packing services, where trained professionals pack your belongings to ensure everything is secure. This option is useful if you’re short on time or unsure how to pack delicate or valuable items properly.
How long does a local move typically take?
The time required depends on the size of your home, the number of items, the level of access at both properties, and the distance between them. A small one-bedroom apartment may take 3–4 hours, while a large family home could take a full day. Most furniture movers will provide a time estimate based on your inventory and site conditions. Efficient planning, early starts, and good communication help speed up the process and reduce unnecessary downtime.
Can I move my belongings into storage temporarily?
Yes, if your new home isn’t ready or you need to store items short-term or long-term, many furniture removalists on the Sunshine Coast offer storage options. Items can be collected and delivered to a secure facility, then returned when you’re ready. This is ideal for people downsizing, relocating in stages, or undergoing home renovations. Storage services are available for a wide range of items and can be arranged as part of your moving package.
What should I do to prepare for moving day?
A well-organised moving day starts with preparation. Begin by decluttering and sorting through what you want to keep, donate, or dispose of. This reduces both the time and cost of your furniture removal. Use sturdy boxes for packing and label each one clearly with the room and contents. Group similar items together, and wrap fragile pieces carefully with bubble wrap or packing paper. Large appliances should be disconnected, cleaned, and allowed to dry for at least 24 hours before moving. If you have pets or small children, arrange for them to be with a friend or family member during the move to keep them safe and reduce distractions. Also, have a basic essentials bag ready with snacks, toiletries, chargers, and any important documents you’ll need quick access to. Preparing in advance helps the movers work more efficiently and reduces last-minute surprises.
