removalist checklist

Moving home is widely regarded as one of the most stressful life events, especially when the process of packing up and relocating your belongings falls to you. At Carlin Brown Removals, we offer a stress-free and comprehensive removals service to make the process as smooth and easy as possible for our customers. To help you prepare for your move, we have created a removalist checklist of items to consider when organising a removals service:

1. Start Planning Early – Try to book your removals service at least four to five weeks before the big day, as many removal companies will be booked out during peak periods.

2. Collect Packing Materials – Start collecting packing materials as soon as you have booked your removal service – these can often be sourced from local supermarkets and shops.

3. Create an Inventory – Writing an inventory of your belongings is a good way to keep track of your possessions and to ensure they are all accounted for after the move.

4. Prepare Appliances – Make sure any appliances are disconnected and ready to go, like TVs and washing machines.

5. Labelling your Boxes – To help make your move go as smoothly as possible, number and label your boxes to keep track of them as they are loaded and unloaded.

6. Clear the Paths – Ensure there is a clear route to the building entrance and the parking space to allow easy access for the removal vehicle.

7. Notify the Post Office – Don’t forget to notify the post office of your new address in advance to ensure you receive mail from your old address.

At Carlin Brown Removals, we provide a range of tailor-made removals services to meet your needs. From packing and wrapping services to full relocation packages, our experienced removalists will handle everything for you so that you can focus on settling into your new home. With more than 20 years experience in the industry, you can rest assured that your possessions are in safe hands.
