The best way to move to Tasmania


Plenty of people decide to pack up and move from the mainland to beautiful Tasmania. Cheaper house prices, stunning natural scenery and a more easy going and relaxed pace of life make it an attractive choice for many. The majority of people moving to Tasmania want to transport their household items and vehicles across the Bass Strait but the prospect of doing so seems pretty daunting.

As soon as you begin investigating how to move to Tasmania, you will highly likely run into a few issues. Many removalists do not include Tasmania on the moving routes. There are many reasons why but one of the major ones is that it's just not that profitable for them. Generally, more people (and goods) are going into Tasmania than coming out of Tasmania. This means that while the boats are full of cargo going one way, they may be nearly empty coming back. As a result, the shipping companies are forced to jack up their prices to make it worthwhile going both ways.

A great option to move to Tasmania is using a self pack shipping container. You can have an empty container delivered to your address anywhere on the mainland - Perth, Sydney, Adelaide, Darwin - and we will transport it to Burnie, Hobart, Launceston or wherever you may be relocating to in Tasmania. All the hassle is taken away and all you need to do is to transport yourself down to Tasmania to unpack your moving container.
