If you're moving interstate, it’s likely due to a big life change and you will have valuable or irreplaceable items that you need moved egg-spurtly.
Wouldn't it be nice to settle into your new home without anything to worry about? No broken furniture. No missing items. No lost valuables. If you want your move to go off with the least amount of damage, stress, and lost items, then we'd recommend you look at hiring professionals to help with the move itself. We can't help with moving the family, but just about everything else? Including the pets? We sure can!
Before we go any further - we want to clarify that boxes for general household storage are not suitable to use for your move. Why? Because generic storage boxes you can purchase locally, say from your local hardware store, are not designed to be strong or tough enough for commercial transportation. Generic storage boxes used for a commercial move is likely to result in boxes giving way under weight, or tears and punctures to the box, all resulting in damage to your items. Generally, you’ll probably pay more per box for a moving box over a storage box, but it’s definitely worth the investment.
