Perth Removalists

Start with the furniture, cartons and other goods you intend to move. Add dimensions for bulky pieces, photographs of awkward access and the dates that are fixed. For an apartment, identify the lift reservation, loading area and building contact. Mark estimates clearly so IRCO can identify what still needs to be checked before the quote is finalised.

Access affects the work at both ends of a Perth interstate move. Record stairs, lift dimensions, doorways, carrying distances and any limits on vehicle entry. If furniture may need dismantling, describe the piece and request that work before booking. For an office or commercial load, identify the receiving hours, nominated contact and any assembly or placement required.

Businesses can review commercial furniture transport for furniture and fit-out enquiries, or freight transport services for other proposed loads. Describe the goods, packaging, dimensions and unloading arrangements so IRCO can assess which service is suitable.

Choose cartons and protection for the actual contents, and confirm who will prepare fragile or awkward pieces. Use sound packaging, protect surfaces and keep loose components identifiable. Our packing tips and recommendations cover carton selection, appliance preparation, labels and the questions to resolve before loading.

You can ask IRCO to assess selected fragile items, a kitchen or a wider packing job. Specify what you will pack yourself, what materials you need and when the work can take place. Packing, unpacking and furniture assembly are different tasks; ask for the requested labour and materials to be included in the written scope.

Interstate Removalists Co does not offer insurance. The removalists we use generally hold transit insurance, but check what cover, limits and exclusions apply to your particular move. IRCO recommends CARTS Removals & Storage Insurance for separately arranged cover. Discuss the inventory, packing, transport and any storage period directly with CARTS before collection. Keep the accepted inventory and condition photographs with your quote and policy documents.

Backloading can use available truck space on a suitable route. It may offer a different price from a dedicated arrangement, but availability, handling and date flexibility still need to be assessed. Compare the complete quote, including collection and delivery access, any storage and the work included at each property.

If you have a fixed vacancy date or a limited delivery window, make that clear in the enquiry. Read our backloading removals guide for the information to prepare, then ask IRCO to confirm whether the available arrangement suits your load and deadlines.

Sort the furniture and belongings you want to take before finalising the inventory. Compare moving a piece with replacing it, and allow time for the collection of items you sell or donate. Our guide to decluttering before moving home helps you make those decisions. A smaller load does not always change a minimum transport charge, so ask IRCO to review the revised list.

Moving into Perth or elsewhere in WA? Our guide to moving garden equipment to Perth covers cleaning mowers and tools, preparing empty pots, coordinating the WA declaration and keeping relevant goods accessible for inspection. Add the outdoor inventory before your household load is packed.

Request your free interstate removal quote with both addresses, the furniture and carton list, access information and requested packing or assembly. Mark undecided items and dates rather than guessing. The home moving preparation guide can help you organise the remaining jobs before collection.

If you are helping a parent or family member move, our aged care removals information covers the preparation and coordination to discuss. Nominate the person who can approve decisions and receive the delivery. Explore our nationwide removalist routes for other destinations, then confirm the proposed service and receiving arrangements with IRCO.
