The exclusive Sydney suburb of Mosman has some of the most expensive real estate not only in Australia, but in fact it has some of the most expensive real estate in the Southern Hemisphere. So where does a resident of Mosman begin to look for a furniture removalists capable of moving the expensive art-work and furniture synonymous with Mosman?



The internet is always a good starting point with a search for ?Removalists Mosman? and then, following these four basic rules will result in the selection of a professional furniture removalist company that services the Mosman suburb of Sydney.

The most important rule is to make sure the Mosman furniture removalist company is an AFRA removalist. AFRA is the Australian Furniture Removalists Association. All AFRA removalists are bound to comply with the AFRA code of conduct that governs on such points as the premises of removalists, professional staff training, removal trucks, removalist insurance and advertising. Mosman removal companies have to pass some stringent tests to become AFRA removalists.

Rule two is make sure the Mosman removalist has a physical address. So many removalists are setting up net based companies only. These so called removalists do not have any physical address they only have an internet presence. Once the removalist job is booked these e-commerce removalists will simply sub-contract the Mosman removalist job to some other fly-by-night furniture removalist. So again it must be stressed: only book with a removalist that has a physical address. Obviously no removalist will be physically based in Mosman Sydney; real estate is far too expensive in Mosman and storage space is limited. Most furniture removalists that service the Mosman area will be based in areas around Sydney that have affordable commercial property that is suitable for storage; compare this to commercial property in Mosman that is used for art galleries, jewelers and antique shops.

Rule three is telephone the removalists, or even better, actually visit their premises; if furniture is being moved into the removalists storage then a visit to the premises is essential. It is surprising how many people book on-line without even a conversation with the removalist company.

The final rule is always take-out removalist insurance. Only AFRA furniture removalists can legally offer insurance. It is a bit of a paradox but only reputable removalist companies that have a good moving track record are allowed to offer insurance. Most removals in the Mosman area will involve very expensive art-work and furniture, hence the importance of insurance.

Moving house can be a very stressful time; however, by choosing the correct Mosman removalist a lot can be done to minimize any problems. In addition to the ?removalist rules? above it is suggested that removalist companies be contacted for testimonials. Do not feel embarrassed to ask to speak to the author of any removalist testimonial letters published on the web site of a furniture removalist company.
