Protecting what matters most, every step of the way.
At John Bull Removals & Storage, we know that moving house isn’t just about transporting furniture—it’s about moving your life. Behind every box is something valuable: a treasured family heirloom, a piece of art, or a beloved piece of furniture that holds sentimental value. That’s why we take the utmost care in how we pack your precious items into our removalist vehicles.
Here’s how we ensure everything arrives safely—whether you’re moving locally, regionally, or interstate.
1. We Start with Professional Packing Materials
The key to safe transport starts long before anything is loaded onto the truck.
Our team uses:
High-quality moving boxes in various sizes for optimal fit
Heavy-duty bubble wrap and packing paper for delicate items
Furniture blankets and pads to prevent scratches and dents
Plastic wrap and mattress protectors to keep fabric and upholstery clean
We never cut corners with cheap materials—because your belongings deserve the best protection.
2. Each Item Is Carefully Wrapped and Protected
Fragile items are treated with particular care. For glassware, ceramics, electronics, artwork, and other delicate items, we:
Wrap each item individually using soft, impact-absorbing materials
Use double-boxing for extra-fragile pieces
Clearly label fragile boxes to ensure special handling during loading and unloading
We pack with the mindset that every item is irreplaceable—and that’s exactly how we treat it.
3. Smart Loading Techniques for Maximum Safety
Once your belongings are packed, we carefully plan how everything is loaded into the truck. This step is crucial for preventing movement and damage during transit.
Our loading process includes:
Strategic placement of heavy items on the bottom to create a solid base
Light and fragile items secured on top with padding in between
Use of tie-down straps and anchor points to prevent shifting while in motion
Even weight distribution to ensure vehicle stability and safe transport
Every truck is loaded like a game of Tetris—deliberate, strategic, and secure.
4. Custom Solutions for Unique Items
Some items need a little extra attention. Whether it’s a piano, antique sideboard, grandfather clock or oversized mirror, our team is trained in handling specialty items.
We may build custom crates or frames for especially fragile or awkward items
We use lift assists and ramps to ensure safe handling and loading
Each team member is trained in proper lifting techniques to minimise risk of damage or injury
Your unique pieces are safe in our experienced hands.
5. Storage Options When You Need Flexibility
If your move involves temporary storage, we pack your belongings with the same level of care before placing them in our secure, weatherproof storage facilities.
Items are logged, labelled, and carefully placed for easy access and retrieval
We offer short- and long-term storage based on your needs
Climate-sensitive items are stored with protection from temperature extremes and moisture
Whether it’s one week or six months, your items remain safe, clean, and secure.
6. Your Peace of Mind Is Our Priority
We know how much trust it takes to hand your belongings over to a moving team—and we don’t take that lightly.
That’s why John Bull Removals & Storage offers:
AFRA accreditation, meaning we meet Australia’s highest standards for removals
Transit and public liability insurance, for complete peace of mind
Friendly, professional staff who treat every move with respect and care
From the moment we arrive to the final box unloaded, we’re there to ensure your move is smooth, safe, and stress-free.
