Moving in the Rain in 2023 with Brisbane Removalists

Moving in the Rain in 2023? No Worries! Hire Brisbane Removalists for a Hassle-free Move

Moving can be a stressful experience, and unexpected rain on the day of your move can make it even more challenging.

While rain is considered a sign of good luck in some cultures, nobody wants it on moving day.

Fortunately, when you hire Brisbane Removalists, you won’t need luck on your side as our experienced team of movers can handle moving in the rain with ease.

Flexibility is the Key

At Brisbane Removalists, we understand that moving in the rain is not something you plan for.

However, we are always prepared for unexpected weather conditions.

Our experienced team of movers will ensure your belongings are well-protected and secure during the move, regardless of the weather.

Many other removalist companies may cancel your move if it rains. This can be frustrating for clients who have already planned and prepared for the move.

However, with Brisbane Removalists, you won’t have to worry about last-minute cancellations.

We are committed to making your move as smooth and stress-free as possible, rain or shine.

Moving in the Rain Tips

  • Check the weather forecast ahead of time to plan for potential rain on your moving day. Here is a link to the Brisbane Weather Zone website for you.
  • Communicate with your removalist company about the possibility of rain and discuss contingency plans if necessary.
  • Purchase or gather enough plastic covers or tarps to protect your belongings from rain damage.
  • Clear any obstacles or hazards on the path that the removalists will take to move your belongings, such as fallen leaves or debris.
  • Make sure there is ample space to park the moving truck close to your home to minimize exposure to rain during loading and unloading.
  • Use extra caution when moving slippery items, such as glass or mirrors, to prevent accidents in the wet conditions.
  • Consider hiring additional movers to help with the move, as the rain may slow down the process and increase the risk of damage to your belongings.
  • Take frequent breaks and provide hot beverages to keep everyone warm and motivated during the move.
  • Finally, don’t forget to thank your removalist company for their hard work in the challenging weather conditions.
  • Pack your belongings in waterproof containers or heavy-duty garbage bags to protect them from rain damage.
  • Make sure to label the boxes with the contents inside, especially if they are wrapped in similar-colored plastic covers, to avoid confusion during the move.
  • Keep a mop or towels handy to wipe down any surfaces that may become wet during the move, such as the floors of your old and new home.
  • If you have any delicate items, such as artwork or antiques, consider wrapping them in bubble wrap and placing them in a waterproof container to prevent any damage.
  • If possible, try to schedule your move during the daylight hours to avoid moving heavy items in the dark and rain.
  • Double-check that all windows and doors in your old home are locked and secured before leaving, to avoid any potential water damage or break-ins.
  • When arriving at your new home, make sure the entrance is clean and dry before moving your items inside to prevent slips and falls.
  • Consider investing in waterproof clothing and footwear to keep yourself dry and safe during the move.
  • Finally, don’t forget to take some time to dry off and relax once the move is complete. Moving in the rain can be a stressful experience, so treat yourself to a warm shower and cozy up in a dry, comfortable space.

Will the Removalists turn up

Moving to a new place can be both exciting and stressful. One of the biggest concerns that people have when it comes to moving is whether the removalists will show up on the scheduled day.

It’s a reasonable concern to have, considering the number of horror stories out there.

But worry not, if you have booked your move with Brisbane Removalists, you can be confident that our team will show up on the day of your move rain, hail or shine.

Eric and Diaggo….. my happy Spanish REMOVALISTS….. happy, polite and Professional…. On time… and careful a considerate …. Highly recommended 🙏🙏👍👍
Response from the owner: Thank you Pat! Lovely to see happy customers enjoying their move. I will be sure to let the guys know how happy you were with the service they provided and the smiles!!! I hope they taught you some Spanish while they were there. Thanks for taking the time to review us. It means a lot to us. Enjoy your new home! Eileen
Vanderson and Team from Brisbane Removalist were amazing. They took great care of our furniture wrapping in blankets and were outstanding.We has some awkward items to move and their experience and professionalism was apparent.The team were friendly and dedicated.We had everything labelled and planned where it was to go in the new home which the team appreciated.Would highly recommend to anyone moving home
Response from the owner: Good morning Jeffrey, it is always lovely to wake up to a happy customer! Thank you for your kind words. I will let Vanderson, Santiago and Raphael know that you appreciated their attitude, professionalism and skills. We feel the same about them and their dedication to doing their very best. They truly are fantastic and we value them immensely. We wish you all the very best in your new home and hope you enjoy your first Christmas there. Thank you for taking the time to review us. It really helps us too! Eileen and the team at Brisbane Removalists
Luke and Justin just assisted with a local move, highly efficient, friendly, helpful, above and beyond expectations.Can thoroughly recommend Northside Removals
Response from the owner: Hi Melanie, I love that your move went well - unfortunately, it was not with us. I believe you have clicked on the wrong google link. I just want to make sure Northside Removals get the review they deserve. Credit where credit is due and all that. Eileen and the team from Brisbane Removalists
12h and 4 very hard working men got me from my old place to a new one to call home. They were careful and make the effort to care for my belongings and followed instructions to place all the items where I wanted them in the new place. Unfortunately one glass table top was broken in the process. Other than that, everything went well. This was the second time we book their services to move house and we will go back to them next time.
Response from the owner: Hi Sylvia, thanks for taking the time to review us. We love repeat customers. Happy that we managed to get you into your beautiful new home. I hope you settle well. I know this was a big mission for you. Sorry that the table glass broke. Tempered glass does not like truck vibrations and although the team did not knock the table, it spontaneously exploded. This is a known defect with tempered glass - showers, ovens etc. that just randomly explode. I believe this is why insurance companies do not like to cover glass. It is quite scary when this happens and we are truly sorry that it happened. We hope you do not have to move too soon Sylvia! Feet up and enjoy your new home. Eileen and the team.
Sensational communication, amazing service, and great outcome. Cannot fault and really appreciate the above and beyond attention. Thank you for moving me into my new home.
Response from the owner: Good morning Jeff. What a nice way to start my day. Thank you for such a lovely review. I am so glad we could help you settle without the stress. We do try our best to make moving easy so we are thrilled to have you acknowledge this. I will let Miguel and Andres know that they were true superheroes - time to buy them capes I think! I hope you are through the boxes as you did not have many! I hope you enjoy your new surroundings. Take care. Eileen, Atjie, Thomas and the teams.
I have had the best experience with these removalists. From my enquiry with Eileen and then booking the job was easy, very informative, friendly and very knowledgeable. On the day of the move everything went very smoothly. The fellows Jesus and Javier were friendly and professional and went about their work confidently. I would highly recommend brisbane removalists and would use them again.
Response from the owner: Good Morning Jodie, what a lovely way to start my day! Thank you for your kind words and praise of the team. It is not an easy job that they do and I love it when our clients recognize this. Heavy lifting, long days and heat and they still do it with a smile and a great attitude. We would be lost without them. I will let Jesus and Javier know that you have given then a 5 star review. I hope that you have love your new home and garden and settle quickly Jodie. Cheers, Eileen and the team.
Miguel and Jesus were amazing. Very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Brisbane Removalists. They helped me to move from one 3bdr townhouse to another. I was referred to them by someone else, and I was not disappointed.
Response from the owner: Hi Jaimi, Thank you so much for the lovely review. We rely on word of mouth and our Google Reviews, so we are always happy to have referrals. Glad we made your move a smooth one. Yes Miguel and Jesus are amazing. I will let them know that you were thrilled by their professionalism. We wish you all the best Jaimi in your new home. Until next time...Eileen and the team.
Very smooth move , i had lots of woodwork machinery as well asa 4 bedroom house. Great price and the guys hard.worked. definately reccomended
Response from the owner: Hi Irene, and John. Thank you for taking the time to review us and for your email. We appreciate you doing this as this was a big move and no doubt you have other things to do! I have let Vanderson, Javier and Santiago know. Glad we managed to get it all done in record time. We wish you all the best in your new home...once the boxes have been emptied that is! Take care, Eileen, Thomas and Antje.
Great guys did an awesome job and didn't mess around. Great value and service. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner: Hi Mark, Thank you for the lovely review. Andres and Nicholas will be super happy to see this. We wish you all the very best in your new home. Happy it went well and we could take the sting out of moving for you! Happy landing! Eileen and the team.

Response from the owner: Thank you Ashlee for leaving this review. I will let Diego and Jonathan know. They will love to know that they made your move an easy one. We wish you all the very, very best in your new home. Happy landing! Eileen and the team.
The team did a great job with a high level of service from the initial quote right through to the move itself. Can definitely recommend.
Response from the owner: Thanks James for the great review. We love repeat customers. I believe this must be the 3rd time now. Happy that Guto and Henrique made your move so stress-free. I will pass this review onto them. They will be very happy to see this. I am also thrilled that you appreciate the service we offer and come back to us each time. We wish you all the best in your new place. Happy landing! Eileen and the team.
We engaged this company to move my furniture from Caboolture South to North Lakes. The uplift of furniture into a container went smoothly, the 2 gents handled the furniture with care and although it took a little longer than anticipated everything was packed neatly and the container was taken away and placed into storage for 7 days.On the day the furniture was delivered to our place in North Lakes, the unloading went smoothly and the 2 gents were very polite and helpful placing the items where we requested.Unfortunately French door fridge had dents in two of the large doors. We took photos and reported the damage immediately to Brisbane Removalists admin who took ownership of the damage and assured me they would have the fridge doors replaced.They kept me informed of progress and two weeks later we had new doors fitted to the fridge.I can highly recommend this company as from the outset they were very professional and upfront with costs etc.There was absolutely no hesitation in having my fridge repaired and went out of their way to ensure I was satisfied and happy with the outcome.We have used a few different removal companies and without any doubt, Brisbane Removalists are by far the most professional, helpful and honest company we have ever dealt with.Doug & Bev Whitehorn
Response from the owner: Thank you Doug for your lovely review. We are happy to accept errors - we are only human after all. Luckily these are few are far between. They are also learning curves for us, so that we do things better. I am very happy that despite your fridge being damaged, which was absolutely not what we wished for, that you were happy with the service and our follow up. I am glad that it is all sorted now and that you felt supported the entire way through the process. You were fantastic throughout the process too! We wish you all the very best in your new home Doug. It was truly a pleasure dealing with you. :) Regards, Eileen and the team
Iv used Brisbane removalists 4 times and they have been very easy to deal with. The removalists have been very professional and work quickly.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the review Nicholas. I am glad to hear that your moves were successful and that the contact with us was easy. We look forward to future moves. :) Eileen, Thomas and the teams
This is the second time my family has hired this company. I highly recommend them. Eileen and Thomas are incredibly helpful as you discuss your moving needs and the logistics of moving different items to different locations on the same day. And we trust Erick, and his assistant, with our household items. On time, efficient, friendly, hard working, and no breakages even when dealing with a spiral staircase, tricky un/loading spaces, and lifts. Thank you Brisbane Removalists for reducing the stress of moving.
Response from the owner: It is always so lovely to arrive into the office to a happy customer review. Thank you for taking the time to write this. We appreciate this as it is the last thing anyone has time for when moving. We are thrilled that you found our service to your expectations once again Bernadette. We love having repeat clients. Erick is a real trooper and we really value him. He always genuinely goes above and beyond for our clients and always with a smile. I hope you love your new home even if this means we do not get to move you again!!! Eileen, Thomas and the team. :)
More positive feedback after yet another successful engagement with Brisbane Removalists. My experience with them has always been great, but the service we've received on this last job has really been above and beyond.Eileen's assistance leading up to this job, including sending a coordinator to drive by the site ahead of time, was amazing.Sadly, despite all their best endeavours, we still had problems, so it just goes to show that sometimes things just do go wrong. They did everything they could to assist, and even incurred additional costs for which we were not charged.The movers themselves were great, and very careful/mindful while moving things. It was a hard job, given the logistical challenges, but they remained courteous and respectful even when they were clearly exhausted at the end.The same comments apply to their other movers, who attended our previous jobs.
Response from the owner: Hi Nik,Thank you for your lovely review. Yes...so hard when access is difficult. We have a lot of office jobs in the CBD with 20 minute loading zone time constraints, early morning or after hours moving only allowed, or height restrictions that no truck will fit under, so we are used to trying to find solutions to the difficult moves, but it is not always easy. I think a lot of the buildings were built at a time where access was not really thought through - we just have to deal with this. Hopefully, the return will be smoother with a transship. So happy that despite the difficulties, you had a good move. We truly do have wonderful moving teams that are the backbone of our reputation. So glad we could help. See you on the next job Nik. :) Eileen
I used Brisbane removalists twice now, one to move from Newmarket to Chermside, and one from Chermside to Everton Hills. The first time, I needed to move on a short notice. The communication with the team was seamless, especially with Eileen, who gave me a call outside of business hours to explain their services, fee breakdown, etc. The two removalists who showed up, Andre and Murilo, where really organised, detailed, and made sure all furniture were removed with care.For the second time, same deal, great communication, everything organised properly, the removalists (I don't remember their names :( ) showed up precisely at the time agreed and I was completely moved in within 4h.I highly recommend them as everyone I dealt with was highly professional and their fees were decent.
Response from the owner: Thank you Victor for your kind words. We try very hard to make our clients' experience a positive and stress-free one. We appreciate that you take the time to acknowledge that the guys did a great job moving you. I am glad I was able to help you out too. It is always nice to be appreciated. :) We hope that you settle in well in your new home. Eileen and the team. I will share this with Murilo and Andre.
I highly recommend Brisbane Removalists. The team were fantastic, very professional and efficient. I couldn’t believe how quickly everything was done. They took care with my things and were lovely to deal with.
Response from the owner: Hey Rebecca, thank you for taking the time to review us. So happy to see that you were impressed with us and the quality of the service we provide. We do try our best to make your move as seamless as possible with our teams of skilled and efficient superheroes. Erick and team always make the client their priority and go over and above every time - we are lucky to have them and our other superhero teams on board. I will make sure Erick knows you gave them a 5 star. We wish you all the best in your new home Rebecca.
Amazing service as always - we have used the team at Brisbane Removalists many times now - and every time, we couldn't be happier
Response from the owner: Thank you, Kath. Really appreciate that you keep coming back to us. Enjoy your séjour. I will join you for the next one!!! Eileen
If you're looking for down to earth, authentic, service focussed, experienced group of people to either move you or remove rubbish ( this review), you will be pleasantly amazed by Brisbane removalists.Being from Sydney, I had to research who to contact for a quote, to help with a number of things.1. Move us to our apartment2. Remove rubbish at our Mums place3. Help with set up of our new place ( unpack and functional help).I chose Brisbane removalists after reading through all the genuine and real reviews left by customers. And those reviews proved true. From my 1st call with Eileen to organising the services, it had been pleasant and personal.For the rubbish removal I had Andre and Juan. What a great team they made. Fast and at the end they did ask to wash their hands which means very hygiene conscious men. They were polite in taking a simple water offering though appreciated it.For my 1st experience in Brisbane having lived in Sydney most of my life, and not being able to call my best guy Sam ( Newington Removalists), this was a fantastic replacement and on par with who I've known...so look no further in making a decision. You will get the best team for the job.
Response from the owner: Good morning, Linda! What a lovely way to start the day! You have taken a lot of time to write this given your very busy schedule...no wonder you start your day so early! We really appreciate the time you took to write all of this. I will let Andre and Juan know that they were superheroes yet again! We look forward to the next stage in the move and hope you get a lot from our decluttering service with Timea. Sounds like a clean and fresh start to a new home. I am sure you will love the sleepier lifestyle Brisbane offers! Really enjoyed our chats. Talk soon. Eileen and the team.
Very easy and pleasant to deal with from start to finish. Eileen was lovely and communication was fantastic. Camilo L and Dairo were a great team to work with even with our road closed at short notice and the rain. They did not stop until the job was done. Highly recommend and would use Brisbane Removalists again.
Response from the owner: Hi Rachel, thank you for your great review and for your wonderful sense of humour when the roads were blocked off and you only found out last minute. You found a solution and took it all in stride. Shame you did not get an autograph from Mark W., but you still got moved despite the chaos. I am glad it all went well, and I totally loved your attitude in the face of adversity. I am sure the Dairo and Camilo had a lot of fun with you!!! Happy landing in your new place. :) Eileen and the team.
