The trick to a relatively stress free move is to be able to safely transport your household to the new location. This is possible if you get yourself organised and plan how you will go about it. Firstly however, you need to decide how you are going to manage it.

If yours is a small house with few items of furniture and the move is just a couple of blocks away, or down the street you might think of handling everything yourself. You manage the packing, loading the boxes on to the truck and unloading it all at the new location. Rental trucks are available which you can hire, load and drive to the new location. Yet, a self-managed move such as this requires help from a few able bodied friends and neighbours.

Yet another option exists when moving home – you pack the stuff and load it up into the truck and the moving company will drive it to the new place. This option saves you a considerable sum on the packing and loading and is ideal for those on a tight budget.

The third option is to hire a moving company that will pack your belongings, load them into the trucks and unload it at the new location. This is a full-fledged service which is suitable if you're moving long distance or interstate or if you have a large house to move or if you are moving at short notice.

There is no denying the fact that your household items can be transported safely without damages only if the packing is done professionally. When you hire a full service removalist company, you can be assured they will safely transport your household to the new location. A reputed Furniture Removalists Interstate service has trained personnel who know exactly how the packing must be done for the move.

But, should you decide to handle the packing yourself, here are some tips to get yourself organised and ready to move.

# Gather cartons and cardboard boxes that you might need for the move. These can be purchased or rented from the removalist companies. Keep packing tape, packing paper, bubble wrap and markers handy.
# When you start packing, make sure that the heavy items go at the base in the boxes and lighter items occupy the top. Fill up the empty gaps between the items in the box with crumpled newspaper to provide extra cushioning.
# Antiques, glassware and china must be individually wrapped in paper and then placed in the boxes. If you have the original packings, use it.
# Start packing systematically beginning with least used items first and leave for last-minute the things that you'll need till moving day.
