Family Guide to Moving with Last Minute Removalist
Moving with your family can feel like a monumental task, but with a bit of planning and the right removalist, it doesn’t have to be stressful. At Last Minute Removalist, we specialize in making family moves throughout Sydney smooth and hassle-free. Here’s your go-to guide for a family-friendly move:
1. Start Planning Early
Even if you’re using our last-minute service, planning is key to avoiding chaos. Create a moving checklist and timeline to keep things organized. List what needs to be packed, any special arrangements for kids or pets, and important dates.
2. Get the Kids Involved
Involving your children in the moving process can help them adjust to the idea of change. Let them pack a few of their own belongings, like toys and clothes, so they feel part of the journey.
3. Pack Smart
When moving as a family, keeping your essentials handy is crucial. Pack an “open first” box with items you’ll need on moving day—snacks, chargers, toiletries, and a few toys for the kids. Trust Last Minute Removalist to handle the heavy lifting, so you can focus on your family.
4. Label & Organize
Label each box with the contents and which room it belongs to. This way, when we arrive at your new Sydney home, we can unload efficiently. Clear labeling will also save you from rummaging through boxes when you’re trying to settle in.
5. Prepare for Moving Day
Moving day can be hectic, but with a little preparation, it will go smoothly. Ensure you have food, water, and entertainment (like tablets or books) ready for your kids to stay occupied while our team works swiftly to load up your belongings.
6. Child-Proof the New House
Before the kids start exploring your new home, take some time to child-proof it. Look for sharp edges, secure any heavy furniture, and make sure stairs or high balconies are safe.
7. Unpack the Kids’ Room First
Make settling in easier by focusing on unpacking the children’s room first. Setting up their space early helps create a sense of normalcy, making the transition smoother for everyone.
8. Let Us Handle the Heavy Work
Leave the heavy lifting, furniture disassembly, and transportation to Last Minute Removalist. With our team, you can rest assured that your belongings will arrive safely and on time, giving you more time to settle your family in.
9. Take Breaks
Moving can be exhausting for both adults and kids. Make sure to take regular breaks to recharge. Take a walk around your new neighborhood or grab a bite to eat.
10. Embrace the Change
A move represents a fresh start for your family. Focus on the excitement of exploring a new part of Sydney, meeting neighbors, and making new memories in your new home. We’re here to ensure you can focus on what matters most—your family.
