Cost of Removalist Brisbane to Ipswich
Choosing a moving company that offers the quality of service you need, at the time when you need it, and at an affordable price can be challenging. In order to help you understand how you can potentially lower your moving costs, we outline a few key factors that will affect the price of your move.
- Move Size – any removalist will estimate this in cubic metres (cbm). Your fridge is about one cubic metre, a queen sized bed is around 1.7cbm, and a small one bedroom apartment holds about 10cbm of items. A larger family home is typically going to be over 35cbm.
- Distance between houses – in this case, the distance from Brisbane to Ipswich is about 44 km. Your goods will be transported on a truck from Brisbane to Ipswich. In general, the longer that distance, the higher the cost.
- Seasonality – Australians love to move in the summer. Most home sales, job moves, and business moves are concentrated between November and February. Due to this spike in demand, moving companies throughout the country are forced to raise prices by at least 10% during the summer months.
- Access – Our removalists can lift or trolley your things as far as needed, but of course, that takes longer, so our preference is always to be able to park as close to your home as possible.
- Heavy and Bulky Items – Some items you have may require an extra bit of help. Stone garden ornaments, pool tables, pianos, all might require an extra man to help with the lift. If you’re taking heavy and bulky items during the move, let us know in advance and we’ll staff it accordingly.
- Early Booking – If you’re moving in summer, book at least two months ahead to avoid disappointment. Booking a month in advance is usually sufficient during the winter months. When you book early, you are more likely to get a better deal from any quality moving company.
To give you an idea of cost, a 25-30 cbm move from Brisbane to Ipswich is likely to be around $80-$90 per cbm. With larger moves, the price drops rapidly as the volume increases.
What to expect with Brisbane to Ipswich Removals?
Brisbane
If you’re currently in Brisbane, you probably heard some interesting facts and stories about the city. Brisbane was named after the former governor of New South Wales, Sir Thomas Brisbane, who established the city’s original penal statement in the 1820s.
The city was known as Meanjin, a term that means “place shaped like a spike”, to the Aboriginal people. The city is home to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, the largest and oldest Koala Sanctuary in the world. During your stay, you may have visited some of the most popular attractions in the city including Brisbane Botanic Gardens, Moreton Island, South Bank Parklands, Mount Coot-tha Lookout, and more.
If you’re ready to move on and leave all these behind, let’s get to know a few interesting things about the city you’re moving to.
Ipswich
Ipswich was probably named after a city in England. Convicts who arrived in the district named it “Limestone Hills” because they were hired to quarry limestone. It was changed after 1842 when the plans for the town were drawn with the title “Proposed Plan of the Town of Limestone”. Then-Governor Gipps overruled this and named the town Ipswich.
As the oldest provincial city in Queensland, the city has an extensive list of historical buildings and landmarks that locals and tourists can visit to learn more about the city’s rich history and culture. When you’re done unpacking your belongings and are ready to explore, you may take the Ipswich Heritage trails which will guide you in visiting some of the most iconic and historical buildings such as St Mary’s Catholic Church and Presbytery, Claremont, Ginn Cottage, Ipswich Hospice, Queensland Times Building, The Bostock Chambers, and more.
Your move from Brisbane to Ipswich
Will see you moving only 44km and it’s a local move route that our professional removalists are very familiar with. Depending on the size of your home and the services you have requested to be included on your removals plan, most moves will be completed on the same day (that is unless you need to put your items in storage for a while). If you’re not staying in Ipswich for a long time and you plan on returning to Brisbane after some time, putting your belongings in storage in Brisbane is an option you can consider instead of taking everything with you.
