Whether you’re relocating in WA’s South West and Busselton, or making the scenic move between Perth and Margaret River, moving house doesn’t have to break the bank. At Curlys Removals, we’ve helped hundreds of WA families and businesses move efficiently and affordably—and we’ve learned a thing or two about where the hidden costs hide.
Here are our top money-saving moving tips for 2025:
1. Plan Ahead (and Book Early)
The earlier you book your move, the more flexibility and better pricing you’ll get. Weekends and end-of-month slots book out fast in Perth and Margaret River—especially in peak seasons. Locking in your moving date early with a trusted local team like Curlys Removals means no last-minute premiums or panic hires.
2. Declutter Before You Pack
One of the simplest ways to cut costs? Move less stuff. Sell, donate, or recycle anything you haven’t used in the past year. The fewer items you have, the less time your move takes—and the smaller the truck you’ll need.
Tip: Use platforms like Facebook Marketplace or Gumtree to make some extra cash from your unwanted goods before you move.
3. Pack Smart (Or Let Us Help)
Packing materials add up fast. Save money by sourcing boxes from local shops or using containers you already own. That said, if you’re short on time, Curlys offers affordable packing services that may cost less than taking time off work or rushing last-minute.
4. Choose a Local Moving Company
Hiring a mover based in Busselton when moving between Perth or Margaret River keeps travel charges low. At Curlys Removals, we’re based right here in WA and regularly move clients between Perth and the South West—so we know how to optimise routes, save time, and pass the savings onto you.
5. Move Mid-Week or Off-Season
If you can be flexible with your dates, avoid Fridays and weekends. Demand (and prices) go down mid-week and during the cooler months.
6. Combine Moves with Others (Perth Combined Run)
Only moving a few items? Ask us about Perth combined run—a shared load option that lets you piggyback on another move going in the same direction. It’s one of the easiest ways to save big on long-distance moves between Perth and the South Wests’ Margaret River Region.
