Interstate Moving Checklist

It’s as much of a fact as gravity… moving is the most stressful activity you are likely to do. Add an interstate relocation into the mix and it can seem almost impossible. However, with a trusted and reliable interstate removalist, and a detailed interstate moving checklist, you can do it. And you can do it with minimal stress.

Where do I find a good interstate removalist?

Next Level Removals are your trusted moving service for interstate moves from Sydney to Brisbane, Sydney to Gold Coast and Sydney to Melbourne.

We are the highest rated removalists in Sydney and pros at interstate moves. We’re experienced. We know what we are doing. We are here for you 24/7. We care as much about your possessions as you do and will deliver them safely.

From our experience, you need a good, old fashioned checklist to help you with your move, making sure you have everything covered and are not forgetting something important. So, what do we recommend should be on your interstate moving checklist?

Your interstate moving checklist

A lot of people think packing is the start of your move, but there is some groundwork you can do before this to help make your move easier and more efficient. So, let’s start at the beginning:

  • Do a thorough audit

Boring as it is, make sure you do a thorough audit of all of your possessions and get rid of what you don’t need. There is no point wasting money on moving things that you don’t need and are likely to throw out as soon as you get to your new place.

Also identify your fragile items or items in your home that need special care. Let your removalist know your special requirements are relating to these.

  • Do you need storage?

Next Level Removalists can help with storage options and removal of your furniture or items to your storage unit.

  • Calculate how much furniture you have

Once you are confident you are moving only the absolute essentials, do an accurate volume estimate of your furniture and large items. To get the most accurate view of your household items, use our furniture calculator.

  • Do you need a container to move your home interstate?

If convenience is your number one concern, container removals for interstate moves may be for you. Next Level Removals are the experts in container removals.

  • Engage your removalist

Next Level Removals are your trusted moving service for Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane removals.

For a quick removal quote, you will need to provide your removalist with the number of rooms in your home. Your more accurate estimate from the furniture calculator will help at this point also.

  • Order your removal boxes

Next Level Removalists provide you premium boxes, free of charge. We have a full range of large item boxes, small item boxes, fragile item boxes and porta robes.

  • Start packing

You can do it yourself, or you can outsource it. If you are choosing to outsource your packing, Next Level Removals have a specialised packing team that can help with both your packing, and your unpacking at the other end. So convenient!

  • Organise your services at the other end

Remember that your electricity, gas and internet services won’t follow you automatically, so make sure you remember to connect them in time for your arrival. Next Level Removalists can do this for you. Just ask our friendly team.

And most of all… Enjoy your new home!

I highly recommend Next Level Removals. Roodi and his team are amazing! Their prices are so affordable, and the service they provide is excellent. It was easy to book, pricing was clearly quoted, payment was easy. The removalist staff were so good at their job and they gave so much care to my furniture. Everything was delivered quickly and in perfect condition. I absolutely recommend them.

Roodi was in contact to explain the quote so there were no misunderstandings. He was very helpful throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Next Level Removals, I couldn’t be happier with the service they provided. I moved from Camden, to Orange, and the whole process what easy.
They were by far the best priced and had no hidden costs. Things that other companies pay extra for were included, such as extra wrapping for more protection of your items.
I will definitely recommend these guys to anyone doing a local or long distance move!
On the day the guys showed up when they said they would, they were professional and extremely polite. They called when they were 10 mins away from my new place, and made a quick job of unpacking. As it was raining they made sure their showers were taken off whenever going into a room with carpet! They are very thoughtful around the whole process. 100% recommend!!

I am so happy I had Next Level Removals for my recent move! They handled my belongings with care and efficiency, and they listened to my instructions. The team had very positive energy, which made what I thought would be a stressful day a total breeze. The price was very fair and there were no hidden/extra charges. Thank you!!

I’ve moved many times across Sydney and interstate, and this was by far the best moving experience I’ve had.

The team at Next Level Removals were incredibly professional, patient, efficient and took great care with all of my belongings. They shrink wrapped and protected furniture properly, handled everything with care, and made what is usually a stressful process feel smooth and easy.

I’d highly recommend them. If you have a larger move, bulky furniture or awkward access, I’d definitely recommend spending a little extra for 3 removalists. It made the move incredibly efficient and well worth it.

Thank you again to the whole team for such a positive experience 🥳

Used Next Level for two moves as had to move prior to settlement then into new home. They were great for both. Real professionals, took care with my items and even made the effort not to track any dirt into my new home due to the wet weather. Would definitely recommend.
