The cheapest way to move between Perth and Brisbane
For customers moving between these two cities, 99% of the time this is done via shipping containers and by utilising the rail network
So How Does That Work?
In theory, it's relatively simple. We send a truck to your home that carries a 20ft shipping container on the back.
The guys pack, wrap and load your furniture and belongings into the container.
Then if you happen to fill the container, the driver usually takes the container straight to the rail station, if a booking is available, if not it's taken to a secure yard to await the next slot
If the container is not full, it is then partitioned off and is brought to the following customers home, to fill it.
Containers usually are only transported full, to ensure the least amount of movement possible
So Then What Happens?
Then the container is sent via the National Rail Network to Perth.
When it arrives in Perth, 1 of 2 things typically happen.
If you have not requested storage, then the container is loaded by a crane onto the back of another removal truck.
This truck then comes to your new home, and the guys unload everything for you.
If you have requested storage, then the container is taken to a secure yard, until you are ready to take delivery.
Things to Consider when Moving to Perth & Western Australia.
