Question 8

How long does the average move take?

Accepted Answer

This is a tough question as every job is different!

There are several factors on which the time taken depends. A rule of thumb is that big houses (3 to 4 bedrooms +) take the best part of a day, small houses (1 to 2 bedrooms) take about half a day.

Factors that affect time taken for packing and delivery are:

1)   Steep driveways, stairs and long distances from the home / office to where we can park the truck

2)  Incomplete or incorrect packing - the secret to a fast and efficient move is to be well organized and have everything packed and prepared for transport. Having the correct packaging material makes packing easier, safer and also ensures that your items are safe during transport.
