Sydney is easily one of the priciest Australian cities for renters and buyers alike, yet its natural beauty and centrality to Australia’s business hub make it somewhat of a magnet to new & existing residents. With the world-renowned Sydney harbour as a backdrop and world-renowned models of architecture, the demand for inner Sydney living continues to grow. Like so many others, it may well be you who is looking at moving to Sydney either for lifestyle or career opportunities.
Sydney’s centre, based around the Sydney Harbour Bridge is a hive of mixed apartment living as well as glorious waterside mansions. The old story rules, there is only so much waterfront land, and they are not making any more. Due to the extremely high cost of either purchasing or renting in inner Sydney, many Australians and foreign nationals moving to Sydney will choose to live in one of the suburbs near to, but out of the city. It must be said that Sydney has a very well established public transport system which combines trains, buses, light rail, and ferries. By utilising one or more of these services, you will find yourself hindered not at all by location.
Choosing your Interstate Removalists
As with any removal, choosing the right interstate removalists to handle and look after your valuable items is absolutely critical.
Here are six points which you should be comfortable with before you make this decision:
1. Experience. Are they experienced at interstate removal?
2. Experience. Are they experienced with Sydney removal?
3. Insurance. Are they fully insured?
4. Can they fit to your timeline?
5. Are you comfortable with the how they deal with you?
6. NEVER make this important decision based on price alone.
Packing
As your furniture and goods will be traveling extended distances to arrive in Sydney, good packing becomes even more important. You may choose to pack yourself (which will obviously be cheaper) but you will need to ensure that you use removal cartons only and that all breakable items are wrapped in paper to protect them.
The removalists rely heavily on the ability of the packers and need to be comfortable to stack cartons up to five high or use them as building blocks in the load. A brief rule of thumb is that the average house will have one “fragile” carton only. Otherwise, the professional team at South West Removals can pack for you.
