SKY Movers & Packers FAQ
When it comes to Professional Moving services, SKY movers & packers are someone you can count on and the name you can trust.
-
What are our's quality standards?External quality audits are carried out by Australian Standrads representatives on a regular basis, ensuring that standards are upheld and our customers always receive a high-quality service. Our pursuit of the highest possible quality service has led SKY movers & packers to develop the QUEST Quality Management Program. With our history and knowledge of the relocation industry, Crown has been able to create a system that sets the standard for quality.
-
Can I reschedule my relocation?Rescheduling can be done up to 48 hours prior to the move.
-
What should I look for in a Movers Company?There are lots of movers companies out there and they will range from one person with a van to larger movers companies who have a fleet of vehicles of all sizes to move your belongings as well as a team of removers and removal services. We would always advise that you ask family members and friends for recommendations for removal companies and look at the companies reviews before you book them for your moving day.
-
How will my possessions be moved?Most interstate removals are effected using specially constructed hi-cube furniture containers which are loaded and sealed at residence. These containers travel between Australian cities on the Pacific National freight rail network. The use of inter-modal containers is a feature of the contemporary Australian moving industry, offering customers the benefits of minimizing excessive handling and allowing for short-term storage at interstate destinations. Local moves are carried out by specialist moving trucks. Depending on the belongings in your inventory we may utilize specialist equipment for moving heavier items.
-
How long will it take to move me?This all depends on many different factors, including the time required to load, secure and unload your belongings, what level you are on, are we using a lift solely for us or are we sharing, how far the truck is parked from the premises, weather conditions and also the distance between the premises you are moving from and to and how well you have prepared for the move. The more you do beforehand, the cheaper will be for you. The promise we give is this, we do many services apart from Removal lists, if we don’t give you a quality relocation, we stand to lose you and your referrals in the other parts of our business. We have grown due to integrity and referrals.
