Top 10 Tips for Moving Home from Somerset to Franklin

Planning a move from Somerset to Franklin? Whether you’re relocating for a sea change, a job opportunity, or just a fresh start, the right preparation can make all the difference. These expert tips are based on real moving experiences from the Somerset region — tailored to help you save time, reduce costs, and keep your move stress-free.

1. Book Your Somerset to Franklin Removalists Ahead of Time

Removal slots can fill quickly — especially around holidays, school breaks, and the end of month. Secure your preferred date early to lock in the best price and availability.

2. Declutter Before You Pack a Single Box

Every extra item adds weight, volume, and cost. Sort through furniture, clothing, and garage clutter before moving day. Sell, donate, or recycle what you don’t truly need at your new home.

3. Label Boxes by Room and Urgency

Make unpacking simple with a clear labeling system. Include the room and importance level (e.g. “Bathroom – open first”) on each box to avoid the dreaded box shuffle at the other end.

4. Choose Strong Packing Materials

Sturdy boxes, tape, and bubble wrap are worth the investment. If you're backloading from Somerset to Franklin, quality packaging ensures your belongings stay protected while sharing truck space.

5. Pack a ‘First Night’ Essentials Kit

This one box should include everything you'll need in the first 24 hours — toiletries, basic tools, chargers, medications, and snacks. Keep it in your car or clearly marked for easy access.

6. Check Access at Both Properties

Make sure removal trucks can access both the Somerset departure address and your new home. Think driveways, parking restrictions, gates, stairs, and lift access.

7. Get a Detailed Quote (Not Just an Estimate)

Ask for a full breakdown of your moving costs, including optional services like pre-packing, storage, or vehicle transport. Click here for a free moving quote from Tas Removals & Storage.

8. Prepare for Tasmania’s Seasonal Changes

Weather across Tasmania can shift fast — even in a single day. Wrap items to protect against moisture, wind, and UV exposure. Consider sealed tubs for valuables or electronics.

9. Be Flexible if You Want to Save

If your move-out date is flexible, ask about discounted backloading options. Trucks regularly pass through Franklin and you might score a better deal by sharing the load.

10. Choose Movers Who Know Tasmania

Moving across Tasmania isn’t just about distance — it’s about experience. Choose removalists who understand the roads, logistics, and small-town quirks between Somerset and Franklin. Local expertise leads to smoother moves.
