How to Choose the Right Removalist in New Farm

Choosing the right removalist matters because the quality of your mover directly affects how smoothly your relocation goes.

Here’s what to compare when choosing removalists in New Farm:

AFRA Accreditation

Always confirm your removalist is AFRA-accredited. This certification means your mover adheres to national standards for safety, training, and operations. Optimove’s accreditation reflects our commitment to delivering consistent results that meet professional benchmarks across all types of moves.

Local New Farm Experience

Local knowledge helps with parking, access, and route planning. Our familiarity with New Farm ensures safe manoeuvring through busy or narrow streets. We plan each move efficiently, respecting local regulations and access points to make your relocation on schedule and secure.

Professional Equipment

Modern moving equipment safeguards your belongings. We use hydraulic lifts, protective wraps, and specialised tools to manage furniture and fragile items safely. Investing in upgraded trucks and handling systems helps us deliver reliable service for both residential and business moves.

Transport Pricing

Compare how pricing is structured before booking. Fair, transparent billing gives you control over your costs. At Optimove, we clearly outline hourly or fixed-rate options so you can choose what best fits your timing and budget without hidden charges.

Comprehensive Insurance Coverage

Adequate insurance safeguards your move from unexpected issues. Reliable removalists should explain coverage types clearly. Optimove provides full transit insurance options so you can proceed confidently, knowing your property is properly protected throughout transport.

Availability & Punctuality

Reliable timing keeps everything on track. Choose removalists known for showing up when promised and completing jobs within agreed timeframes. Our New Farm operations are carefully scheduled to maintain punctuality and reduce downtime for both home and business clients.

New Farm Moving Tips & Booking Guide

My partner and I have just used Optimove removals for a double move – stuff out of my house to storage whilst another truck at his place to bring his furniture and belongings to here and more to storage. We went with them based on price and a promise of ‘great care’

The removalist service has been fantastic. The boys all moved fast on both crews, were so easy to deal with, and I’ll be honest I can’t remember the last time I saw everything plastic and or blanket wrapped so well to completely protect everything we have. I would HIGHLY recommend these guys. Jacqueline Nagle

“By far the best removalists I have used. Adam and Chris were fantastic. On time, polite, energetic, fast and careful with all of my furniture. Reasonably priced and very efficient .” Jessie Mariee Watson, 29 August 2025

“I couldn’t have been happier with my choice of Optimove to shift a lot of my precious belongings into storage. The removal team phoned me to give an estimated time of arrival and when they arrived no time was wasted. The 2 removalists were fast and efficient. I was very impressed and would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for removalists and would have no hesitation in employing their services again.” Sue Bertram, 19 August 2025

“Best removal company we have ever used. Optimove removals is a great moving company, two nice lads who moved at a good pace. Everything was well looked after and arrived in perfect condition. Very good prices, next time you are looking to move to a new location check these removalists out. Better than a hiring a truck and moving your own stuff by a long way. On time, polite, no hidden costs – the most energetic men ever!!!!!” Kirsten Maria Corin, 2 August 2025

“On Saturday just gone, Adam and Chris from Optimove did an outstanding job in moving us from Burleigh Heads to Cornubia. They worked tirelessly without stopping for 5-6 hours until the job was done, whilst taking absolute care of all our possessions. They were friendly, honest and just downright good blokes. I high recommend Optimove.” Glen Read, 18 July 2025

“Just wanted to take a second to say a big thank you to the team at Optimove. The guys that arrived on the day were so friendly, helpful and professional. I couldn’t believe that when they said everything would get wrapped and protected that it actually happened. I have moved several times in the past but I found these guys definitely stood out amongst the rest with their speed and professionalism…” Carly Turner, 9 July 2025
