Trust, professionalism, and peace of mind—AFRA sets the standard.
When it comes to moving house or office, choosing the right removalist is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. It’s not just about transporting boxes from A to B—it’s about entrusting someone with your precious belongings, memories, and the smooth start to your next chapter.
That’s why it’s worth choosing a removalist who is a member of the Australian Furniture Removers Association (AFRA). At John Bull Removals and Storage, we’re proud to be AFRA-accredited—and here’s why that matters for your move.
What Is AFRA?
AFRA is the official governing body of the furniture removals industry in Australia. To be accredited, removalists must meet strict criteria in the areas of:
✅ Training
✅ Equipment and vehicles
✅ Insurance and safety procedures
✅ Business ethics and professionalism
Essentially, AFRA sets the benchmark for excellence in removals—ensuring that accredited companies deliver quality, trustworthy service every time.
Top Reasons to Choose an AFRA Member Removalist
1. Professional Standards You Can Trust
AFRA members are regularly audited and held to high industry standards. You can be confident that your move will be handled with care and professionalism—no shortcuts, no guesswork.
Clean, purpose-built vehicles
Trained and experienced staff
Safe and secure handling of your belongings
2. Comprehensive Insurance Cover
Moving can be unpredictable, and insurance is essential. AFRA members are authorised to offer Transit and Public Liability Insurance, giving you protection and peace of mind throughout the move.
Cover for accidental damage during the move
Options tailored to your specific needs
3. Fully Trained Removalists
AFRA-accredited companies invest in regular training for their staff. This means your belongings are handled by removalists who understand how to:
Pack and load correctly
Lift and carry safely
Handle fragile, bulky, or valuable items with the right techniques
4. Transparent Practices and Ethics
AFRA members operate with integrity and transparency as part of their code of conduct.
You can expect:
