Full or partial packing
Take the whole house, or just the kitchen, wardrobes and garage — the parts that take longest and break easiest.
Packing
Packing Services, Materials and Unpacking
Packing is the part of a move that eats your evenings for three weeks. Our packers do a full house in a day, label every carton by room, and log an inventory as they go — so unpacking takes a weekend instead of a month.

What's included with packing services
Custom protection
Dish barrels for crockery, wardrobe cartons for hanging clothes, and custom crating for art, mirrors, TVs and instruments.
Labelling and inventory
Every carton is numbered, listed and marked with its destination room, so nothing goes missing and nothing gets unloaded into the wrong place.
Unpacking service
We can unpack, place items in cupboards and remove all cartons and paper on a follow-up visit.

Packing Services FAQs
How much does professional packing cost?
Packers are $70 per hour each, with materials at cost. A 3-bedroom house typically takes two packers a full day, plus roughly $150–$300 of cartons and paper.
Do you supply the boxes?
Yes — cartons, dish barrels, wardrobe boxes, paper, tape and bubble wrap are delivered before packing day and charged at cost.
Can I pack some rooms myself?
Absolutely. Most customers pack the easy rooms and hand us the kitchen, wardrobes and garage.
Do you unpack as well?
Yes. Unpacking is charged at the same hourly rate and includes taking all the cardboard and paper away.
