Interstate removalists Darwin

What type of insurance coverage you decide upon is a personal choice. For peace of mind, we recommend that our customers take out the full cover and insure all of their goods for replacement cost. This way, you’ll have the broadest coverage against the risk of loss or damage, and you would receive new for old. We suggest you carefully read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) and choose the cover that best suits your circumstances. This document summarises what your policy covers, the various options available to you and what it does not cover.

If you decide to get replacement cover, you need to estimate the cost of replacing your goods with new goods of similar type and quality. If you select market value cover, you need to estimate the amount you would likely receive for your goods if you sold them. Then, just provide Darwin removalists with a figure or the total value of your goods, or use our Insurance Declaration to identify and value your interests.

AFRA recommends referring to the manufacturer's instructions. Washing machines are easily damaged, so they must be prepared following factory guidelines. It is not usually Walkers’ responsibility to do this; any damage resulting will not be the removalist’s responsibility.

We ask that you empty your fridge and remove any trace of moisture. If your fridge goes into storage or travels some distance, we suggest wiping the interior with vanilla essence to deter mildew. Our Darwin removalists relocate and store fridges daily and can be trusted to take the utmost care with your appliances and follow the manufacturers' recommendations.

At Walkers Moving Company, we understand that you may need short-term storage facilities when moving interstate. So we offer short and long-term sealed, under-the-roof storage throughout Australia. This safe, secure, cost-effective solution takes care of your precious belongings until you can move into your new house. 

We offer an extensive range of storage facilities for the short term to an indefinite period, so whether you need to store an item of furniture or an entire house or warehouse, we have a storage solution for you. Please note, however, that we do not offer 24-hour access to your items. To keep costs to a minimum and your belongings safe, we seal all items in a secure and dry container that is only accessible upon delivery to your new location. Our interstate removalists, Darwin, take pride in offering bottom-line costs with no hidden fees or surprises. So the price quoted for our removal services is what you’ll pay.

Any damage to your furniture or other belongings during your interstate removal from Darwin, Northern Territory, will be covered by your insurance policy. However, you will have no recourse to compensation if you are not insured. 

Our professional removalists ensure maximum protection of your belongings throughout the moving process, from securely packing materials to safe transportation interstate and unpacking in your new home. Unfortunately, accidents can still happen despite our care and expertise, and some things are outside our control. We will endeavour to ensure no loss or damage, but we recommend you take out insurance.

AFRA states, "If it can be proved that the removalist was negligent in causing the damage or that he did not use due care and skill, you may be able to request that they repair any damage”. However, you are unlikely to obtain compensation if damage occurs and Walkers displayed no negligence.

All storage services offered throughout your interstate move across Australia are covered by comprehensive insurance. As part of our commitment to providing the best service possible, we have multiple storage locations in all main cities. So you can have complete peace of mind that our Darwin removalists will handle your belongings with the utmost care and ensure maximum protection throughout their journey to your new house.
