“Moving is the bane of existence” is something I once said. That was before I hired removalists. I will never move again without the professionals. This lesson was learned through my work. At the time, I was a production manager in a sailing yacht factory. Our contracted lease was up, and we had outgrown the facility. Time to move.
Similar to our family’s growth requiring a new residence, the hunt for a new factory location begins. Once we found the best property for our new production facility, it was my task to relocate the factory. All of it. All equipment, parts, materials, machining tools, welding, carpentry, electrical, navigation, and especially all of the large hull moulds for vacuum infusion.
The professionals I hired to make this move possible and quick, so as not to disrupt sales, changed my view on moving. When you need the best interstate removalist in Melbourne, contact the white glove mover. This team was professional beyond my expectations and cared for our items better than we did ourselves. I will never move without the pros again.
The smaller tooling and machines could be delivered and installed directly. The massive catamaran hull moulds and masts needed a separate caravan of oversized hauliers. They performed an all-night move in coordination with utilities and police escorts, during lower traffic hours, closing lanes, blocking intersections, and completing the trek with zero damage before the morning rush. Perfection.
They had offered to store this large number of trailers with our equipment on them if we needed. Our departing factory ownership was very accommodating, and we were able to move in one leg, in one night. Two years later, we moved the factory again. I am certain your home or office relocation will not be as intense.
That does not mean to leave your personal belongings to a lesser-skilled company or moving box by box in your backseat. You may want to pad and pack some of your most fragile items personally. I totally understand this, but be sure it is done before the team you hired arrives. There will be a flurry of packaging activity that will make your head spin. Cleaning up and rubbish removal for final inspection is another article.
My last piece of advice is something you should do in the very beginning. Take photos and videos of everything before packing starts. This is the best evidence in the unlikely event that damage occurs in movement. Professional removalists are insured, licensed, and fall under guidelines to protect you and your property. Your brother or friend is not.
A new job in a new city brings new excitement and energy. Hold onto that charge by handing off the hard and often unpleasant task of hefting your collective life goods to their new resting place. A new office location needs to focus on growth, not assembling desks and dividers. In our new home, we should feel peace from the beginning. The white glove mover can help you with all your removalist needs. Time to get moving.
