Hello everyone, would like to ask all sifus opinion here, roughly how much will moving home costs?
We are moving from a condominium to another ccondominium (jalan kuching to jalan ipoh), bringing together a kingsize bed, a huge wardrobe,6-person dining table and L shape sofa. Also some home appliances like tv,washing machine and fridge.
Would like to estimate the cost and add in to our total budget. Not yet renovate but quotation alr got from reno company. Sigh..moving house is so stress.

Factors:-
1) Distance
2) Truck size 1 Tonne, 3 Tonne, etc
3) Number of helpers you require
4) What floor you both the apartments are at as some items might need to use the stairs
5) What sort of packing you desire, like bubble wrap everything, soft insert truck for soft furniture
6) Timing of the work, can they work weekends or do you need to work outside office hours, etc
I sincerely advise you go for for a proper moving company although they cost good money otherwise high chance your items will have some scratches and what not.
A cheap mover is those roadside sign saying 3 Ton Lorry dgn 3 pekerja RM450. Cheap but only for goods that your don't mind having some scratches.
Also consider that some furniture no matter how nicely transported might be damaged beyond use. Such as those MDF furniture or DIY IKEA type usually not strong enough, unless handled by professionals.

I have just got my quotation. It is RM 750 for 4 single beds, 2 cupboard and 8 big boxes. It would be pricey for me.

It would be pricey for me. professional movers are pricey, but they will put some protection for your items which is good. for me though i dont have any really expensive stuff so i never used them ahhaha. i just get the cheap lorry to lift it. no wrapping at all. but of course always got some damage here and there heheh.

Try Subalipack should be good.
Quote me RM1,700 for 1 bed, 1 baby cot, 1 tv, clothes and small item, with insurance coverage too.
Professional movers = secured.
Any bad things happen they will definitely responsible for it.

TMS Movers is nationwide professional mover. charging $1500 for a 33km distance. will handle all the packing and unpacking as well with their own boxes. Expensive yes.....but if $1500 is small change for you, go for it. Attached thumbnail(s)

Does anyone have the IKEA contact? I think corosadia who had the contact originally has not been active since July 22
Would anyone else whom he may have shared these contact previously be able to share it with me?
