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.

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.
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.
Move was very good, removers were professional and efficient. Admin was very helpful with good communication, process reasonable for our circumstances.
Response from the owner: Good morning, Denice, and thank you for taking time to write us a review. I am glad it went well for you and even happier you found your bed legs. Moving is always hectic, so I hope you get through the last of the boxes soon. Happy landing! Eileen and the team.
Eileen and her team have provided an excellent service. Thank you.
Response from the owner: Hey Jamie, thanks for the review. I will let Erick and Elvis know. We are thrilled we could help out and make it an almost seamless experience for you despite the unexpected delay with getting into the centre. We wish you all the very best with the business. :) Eileen and the team.
The two strapping Colombian lads were punctual. And they didn't mind me jumping in and giving a hand . Well done thanks for making the transition seamless.
Response from the owner: Hi Brad, thanks for the lovely review. I will tell Julian and Jese they have their names in lights. Glad to hear they made your move a wonderful one. We are always happy for clients to help out. Anything to make your move quicker and less costly is fine with us. Enjoy your new home. Eileen and the team.
The team was very helpful, hard working and made our move hassle free
Response from the owner: HI Brad, thank you for your review. Glad your move went well. It was a big job! You must be exhausted. Glad we could get the furniture assembled too. Enjoy your new home when the dust settles, and the boxes have disappeared.
Vanderson and his team worked hard all day on what was a tough job. They were careful, very transparent and committed to getting the job done. There was no damage and the mood stayed positive throughout an 11 hour day. I’d definitely ask for Vanderson again!
Response from the owner: Hi Wayne, thank you for the wonderful review. I will let Vanderson, Robson and Thiago know that they were superheroes! That was a long job, and I am sure you must have been exhausted too! Forewarned was forearmed with your drop off location. Glad we put 3 men on the job. I hope you settle well in your wonderful new home. Eileen, Thomas and the team.
A big shout out to Eileen & her staff Nathan & Joao for all there help with moving me. Extremely professional, very punctual, hard working & a great personality from all. Thanks guys for making my experience stress free. Would highly recommend you to all my friends & family! Thanks legends! 😊
Response from the owner: Thanks Rebecca, for the great review. Loved doing your booking. You made me laugh. It was the best way to end a long day in the office! Loved your attitude to life and knew the team would have a ball moving you. I am sure you made the day stress-free yourself! Enjoy your new home and maybe we will stop our busy lives one day to get that coffee we said we should go for! Happy landing from Eileen and the team.
Moving is a sucky business but Eileen, Marlon and Luis from Brisbane Removalists made the whole thing suck far less than it could have. Nothing was too much trouble, they packed the truck like tetris and they were gentle and thoughtful with everything. I heartily recommend for your next move.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Kathy, we really appreciate your feedback and for taking the time to do this. Sucky is a great way of explaining moving. So glad we made it less sucky! The teams are well trained to do moves so it does make the process easier and allows you to feel confident that your precious items arrive in one piece. We wish you all the very best in your new home Kathy. Hopefully the warm weather will return soon. Eileen
Erick and Elvis helped us with moving from an apartment to a house and they were both great. They took care of our stuff, were friendly, and personable. They both deserve recognition for the hard work that they do and would use them again in the future if needed. :)Thanks!
Response from the owner: Hi Liane, thank you so much for your lovely review. They are truly superstars! I will let them know that you have given them 5 stars! We are happy that your move went so well, and we wish you all the very best in your new home. Eileen, Thomas and the team.
2 great young guys professional courtesy on - time and nothing was too much trouble they cared about our furniture as if it was their own. Would recommend them to anyone.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Katrina for reviewing the team. I will let Jesus and Jonathan know that their work was appreciated. We wish you all the very best in your new home even if it was not far from the last. It is definitely quieter on the new side. :) Katrina
Professional and reliable. Took great care of our item.
Response from the owner: Good morning, Holly! Lovely to have the first email of the day as a 5-star review. :) Thank you for taking the time to do this especially for such a quick and painless move. Enjoy! Take care and thank for using our services. I will let Erick's team know. Eileen

They handled our furniture and white goods with care, and have excellent communication skills.Eileen, what can I say suga, the struggle was real for our family this morning but you came through for me my palagi sister. From the bottom of our hearts fa'afetai lava, God bless you and your family 🙏🙏🙏Take care, Epi xo
Response from the owner: Malo lava Epi, fa'afetai for the lovely review. I will let Camilo and Issac know that they reached superhero status once again! So glad we could help you and your family out in such a tough situation. You were pretty amazing to hold it all together given the circumstances. I look forward to sorting the next part of your move with you Epi. Take care - see you for part 2 soon. Eileen
Prior to booking with Brisbane Removalists, I had gotten quotes from a number of different companies, and went with them as they were the only company that didn't spam me with multiple phone calls, texts and emails every day.This being our first larger move, I was fairly stressed about it and was expecting many things to go wrong, but it was smooth and easy throughout the process. Eileen was super responsive and friendly in the booking process. We had a last-minute change in schedule with under 24h until the move needed to commence, but Eileen was able to accommodate us for the next day, without any dramas.Our movers were Dairo and Camilo. They showed up with big smiles and got to work quickly. I was very impressed with how strong and careful they were. We had an apartment-to-apartment move, and there was no damage to any of our walls or lifts, nor to any of our belongings. I could barely hear any noise as they were working, which is a testament to how gentle they were. We had some heavy and delicate items (piano, artworks), and there was no damage, not even on the plastic wrapping.Overall I was very impressed by the level of service and care and hope to use them again for my next move!
Response from the owner: What a super review you have given us. Thank you, Delia. This is wonderful to hear. I am thrilled me made your move a stress-free and a successful one. Large moves are stressful, but we have true superheroes on our staff that know exactly what they are doing and how to handle goods properly and always come with a smile. I will pass this on to Dairo and Camilo. They will be very happy to see their names in lights! We wish you all the very best in your new home Delia. I am sure the boxes will soon disappear, and you will be able to put your feet up and enjoy your new surroundings. Eileen and the team.
