Common Moving Mistakes to Avoid

Booking too late

Cheapest movers are booked weeks ahead. Last-minute bookings cost more and limit your options.

Not getting a fixed-price quote

Hourly bookings can spiral. Always insist on a fixed quote based on a survey.

Skipping the survey

Phone surveys for villas underestimate volume. Always do an in-person or video survey for anything 3-bedroom or larger.

Cheap packing materials

Single-walled cartons collapse. Use double-walled, premium-grade only.

Underestimating the volume

That spare room "with nothing in it" still has the spare bed, off-season clothes and 12 boxes of old paperwork. Inventory honestly.

Not labelling

Unlabelled boxes turn unpacking into a treasure hunt.

Ignoring the building rules

Move-in restrictions, lift bookings and parking permits trip up the unprepared every time.
