After your initial phone call or email we will call as soon as possible to arrange a time for a representative to come out to survey your home.
They take into account
The amount of items the men need to move
How many men are needed
Access to your property, walking distance from where the truck has to park to pickup or delivery
Are there any stairs and how many
Travel time
We arrange storage at a self storage facility either close to your uplift area or close to your delivery area.
If you are moving interstate we find a place close to where you are moving to, this way you are able to organise a removalist nearby.
If you are moving locally we choose a storage facility in the area you are moving to usually either Caloundra, Warana or Maroochydore.
We choose the facility that have security features which also cover your insurance needs.
We usually need approximately 2 weeks notice.
Around the Christmas season we need at least a month this is because most people want to move during the school holidays and settle in before Christmas Day.
But give us a call because we do have times when we are available the following day.
The men take great care in looking after your belongings
Items are wrapped in either plastic or in blankets.
To get more information speak to our representative when he comes out to see you.
He will answer any questions and give you any tips to help your removal run smoothly.
While Sunshine Coast Removals & Storage take the utmost care with your possessions, accidents do happen and that’s why insurance is always a wise option when moving house or office furniture.
Our insurance policy covers your goods and possessions for fire, collision and overturning of our vehicle while in transit. Breakages, scratches and marks are not covered by our policy. This is a separate insurance cover which must be taken out by the legal owners of the items, through your own insurance broker alternatively please contact:
https://www.removalsinsurance.com.au/
As we do not hold an Australian Financial Services license (AFS) we cannot offer or advise on any form of insurance cover, protection or indemnity.
If you require insurance for your removal and/or storage, we can help organise this. An Insurance Declaration to be completed.
If you own antiques or valuable artworks or collectables you maybe asked for supported valuation documents from a qualified independent art or antiques valuer.

HAPPY CUSTOMERS
Testimonials
Dale & Kathryn
A great big thanks to you and your team for the extra miles put into moving us on such a terrible day (weather wise) as the remnants of Cyclone Debbie played havoc on the region and subsequently our move.
The challenges were taken in Adrian’s stride without a grumble which was both sincerely appreciated and helped to significantly relieve what could have otherwise been a very stressful day for all involved.
We would be very happy to recommend Adrian, Sandra and the team to others without reservation.
Thanks again for your efforts and excellent customer service under quite severe adversity,
Heidi – Buderim
Sandra Hi
I just wanted to say again THANKYOU to Adrian for the immense help this last week. We don’t know how he does it, truly. We were so appreciative and we are so fortunate.
Linda
