Heavy items change the moving plan
Weight is only one factor. Dimensions, stairs, corners, surfaces and the distance to the truck all matter.
Information to provide
- Approximate dimensions and weight if known
- Photos of the item
- Photos of stairs and access
- Pickup and delivery floor
- Lift dimensions
- Whether the item can be dismantled
Do not leave surprises for moving day

Every move is different, but a few details make quoting and planning more accurate: the pickup and delivery suburbs, access for the truck, stairs or lifts, unusually heavy or fragile items, approximate volume, preferred timing and any building rules. Sharing these details early helps the moving team prepare the right equipment and crew.
Before you request a quote

- Identify items that may need dismantling or special handling.

- Keep valuables, medicines and essential documents with you.
Questions customers often ask
How early should I contact a removalist?
Earlier planning usually gives you more flexibility around preferred dates, especially for larger, apartment, office or interstate moves.
What information helps with an initial estimate?
Suburbs, access, move size, special items and timing are a useful starting point. ChevronLog can then discuss the details that matter for your particular move.
