We are experienced pool table movers, and we offer moving services of every kind, including helping you wrap and pack your valuables!
Plan in Advance
The more planned and organised you are in advance, the better! To avoid stress, take stock of what you have in your home and what items can be packed early, especially your fragile items! This ensures that nothing is packed in haste, which can maximise the chance of any damages.
Get Quality Packing Supplies
Make sure that you have plenty of eco bubble wrap, newspaper, recycled paper and insulation products for your move, especially when you have a lot of fragile items. There is nothing worse than unpacking a poorly wrapped box full of your favourite china to realise it’s all broken because you skimped on the bubble wrap!
Use Special Boxes for Glassware
We recommend that you use special boxes for glassware, especially if it’s of high commercial or sentimental value. If you’re unsure how to pack properly or lack the proper packing supplies, reach out to Dawson Moving and Storage NQ. Our moving services include full valet services.
Label Boxes
When transporting furniture interstate or locally, it’s super important to label all of your moving boxes properly, so that you know where everything is. This is especially helpful when you’re unpacking in your new home and ensures that nothing is lost, misplaced or in the wrong room.
