Important pre-move preparation information
Key steps to prepare your home for your move with Grace.
It’s not long now before our hard-working moving crews will be at your home. Our teams are trained professionals who are fully briefed on the specifications for your individual move. It is, however, important to appreciate that during the course of packing and moving, your home becomes a workplace for our staff. This means we ask you to undertake some basic precautionary steps to ensure the safety and comfort of both our staff and your family.
Public health precautions
Pets & children
Access to your property
Washing machines & dryers
Fridges & freezers
Fragile & high-value items
Set aside any delicate or high-value items such as artwork, glassware, jewellery or important documents. Let our crew know in advance so they can arrange appropriate packing.
Polished furniture
Rubbish & recycling
Clear out bins and dispose of any household rubbish, garden waste or recycling before moving day. This not only prevents unwanted odours and pests but also ensures nothing is left behind in your old home.
Staff amenities
We ask that you provide our moving crews with unrestricted access to a toilet and hand washing facilities throughout the day as required. On hot days our staff may also require access to fresh drinking water to replenish their water bottles.
