What are Relocation Services?

A “relocation service” is a professional solution that simplifies the moving process. A relocation service provider can support every aspect of your move, from planning to packing to settling into your new location. 

This service aims to reduce the stress often associated with relocating by handling logistics, packing, transportation, and more.

Core services include:

• Packing and unpacking: Professionals ensure your belongings are secure for transit.
• Transportation: Safe and efficient delivery of your items to the new location.
• Logistics management: Coordination of schedules, routes, and regulations.
• Settling-in assistance: Help with setting up your new home, including utilities and furniture placement.

Benefits of Relocation Services

Opting for professional services offers advantages beyond moving items from one place to another.

1. Convenience and Time Savings

Professional movers handle the heavy lifting—literally and figuratively. This allows you to focus on other important aspects, like family or work commitments.

2. Stress Reduction

Knowing that experts are managing the logistics provides significant relief. They anticipate challenges and address them proactively, ensuring a smoother experience.

3. Expertise and Efficiency

Experienced professionals know how to handle delicate items and navigate legal paperwork. Their expertise minimises the risk of damage or delays.

4. Cost-Effectiveness

While some think these services are expensive, they often save you money in the long run. Avoiding potential damages and reducing time off work make the value clear.

5. Tailored Solutions

Relocation services offer flexibility to cater to your specific needs. Whether you need full-service packing or just transportation, you can customise the services.

Did you know? 22% of Australians claim they avoid moving due to the effort involved. In 2023, 85.3% found moving stressful, up from 79% in 2021.

How to Choose the Right Relocation Service

Selecting an experienced removalist is crucial for a successful, stress-free move. Here are some tips to help you decide:

• Check reviews and testimonials: Look for feedback from previous customers to gauge reliability.
• Assess expertise: Ensure the provider has experience with your specific type of move.
• Compare costs and services: Get detailed quotes and see what’s included. The cheapest option isn’t always the best.
• Verify credentials: Check for proper licensing and insurance to protect your belongings.

Domestic moves to follow shortly.

Nuss Relocations Sydney, one of Australia’s leading moving and relocation specialists, are now providing international packing and wrapping services that are totally plastic free. This is a major advance in our efforts towards providing the most sustainable moving service in Australia.

Our international packing products are now all paper based including our furniture wrap, tape, fragile void chips, special crates, along with all other products that we use for international moves.

We specifically replaced traditional white packing paper too with a brown paper equivalent as brown does not go through the toxic bleaching process of white paper thus making it a far more eco-friendly option.

Nuss has taken a leadership position in implementing this seismic shift in Australia and in doing so, actively reducing the carbon footprint of an international move.

Our paper wrapping products are all 100% recyclable and we have abandoned the bubble wrap products that are still widely used by our industry. Although this is generally classed as re-cyclable in reality most of it ends up in landfill as the recycling entails a separation process that is both time consuming and costly.

Plastic tape is detrimental too as it makes recycling of cartons difficult. The tape can be very hard to remove and so using recyclable cartons is adversely impacted if they have been sealed with plastic tape.

Plastic and plastic based materials are clearly causing massive long term damage to our environment and so we are all responsible to push for change.

As we continue to make even more changes and improvements to our already robust sustainability program our Corporate, RMC, Agent Partners and Private clientele can all be assured of our ongoing commitment to our environment.

The National Cyber Security Coordinator has made the following statement in response to the DP World Australia Cyber Incident:
“This interruption is likely to continue for a number of days and will impact the movement of goods into and out of the country. DP World Australia is working with its stakeholders to consider the impacts on its operations at specific ports.

My office is leading the national response to this incident and has been engaged on this since Friday evening (10 November 2023), when we were notified of the incident.

Our priority is to assist DP World Australia to resolve the incident, so they are in a position to restore access to the ports they operate across the country.

The Australian Signals Directorate’s Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) is engaged with DP World Australia and is providing technical advice and assistance. The Australian Federal Police has commenced an investigation into the incident.

I intend to convene the National Coordination Mechanism again tomorrow, together with NEMA, and continue to meet with DP World Australia over the coming days as this unfolds. I will provide further updates on the situation as it develops.”

We take great pride in reporting that Nuss has been awarded a diGold certification by Ecovadis, the leading Sustainability Assessment organisation, for our efforts and achievements in the development and implementation of our sustainability program.

Nuss Relocations has been committed to all principles of sustainability and CSR for many years, and so we were very excited when we received this recognition.

This rating places us in the top 5% of all companies assessed by Ecovadis, an achievement that we are particularly proud of.

But that’s not the end of it, it’s just the beginning. We will be using this achievement as the basis for our planning to move forward as we continue our sustainability journey.

Every day we learn something new about what sustainability means, what we can do to improve our environment and how we can work hand in hand with our staff, our clients and our supply chain in addressing the global issues that we all face.

Sustainability is not just about the environment though, although the environment is the most publicised and talked about aspect. Sustainability is more far reaching than that.

Reducing green house gas emissions and our carbon footprint a priority for us but we are also focussed on the other less well known and talked about aspects of Sustainability, including CSR, people, human rights and the betterment of living and working conditions for all impacted by our business, wherever they are in the world. This is why embracing Sustainability is so important as it encompasses so much about life now and for the future.

The United Nations have developed a program of goals, The UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s). These have been established as a guide to help organisations achieve a more equal future, a better way of life for all and a safer more secure environment, especially for those who live in under privileged and even dangerous circumstances.

These goals target vitally important issues such as the elimination of poverty and hunger, to ensure everyone has a chance of education, gender equality, climate action, good health, peace and so much more. This is why Sustainability is a responsibility that we must all take on and do our bit.

So, as can be seen, we at Nuss take playing our part very seriously. We are all on this journey together and we are excited by the things that are now happening around the world in the cause of Sustainability.

We will continue the Nuss journey and promise to do what we can to make our world a better place for us all now and for generations to come.
