Moving Truck Packing Tips
Loading Tips
Keep heavy furniture and items (appliances, safes, solid wood furniture) on the floor and closest to the cab (front of the truck) for balance.
The “Upright” Rule
Stand long items like sofas, mattresses, and headboards on their ends to save massive amounts of floor space.
Fill Gaps
Fill gaps with smaller boxes to maximize space.
Hidden Storage
Use empty drawers in dressers or the space inside your washing machine to pack soft items like towels, pillows, or stuffed toys.
Pack Smartly
Use the tailgate lifter for easier loading of heavy items.
Load in Vertical Tiers
Build a solid wall of items from the side of the truck to the other before starting the next section.
Strap as You Go
Don’t wait until the truck is full to use tie-downs. Secure each tier with ratchet straps to prevent a “domino effect” if you have to brake suddenly.
First-Night Essentials
Always load a “First-Night Essentials” box last (nearest the door) or keep it in the cab that includes screwdriver/Allen keys for reassembly, chargers, toiletries, medications, change of clothes, and basic snacks/kettle.

Moving Truck: FAQs
Can I Use Your Trucks For a DIY Move?
Yes, our trucks can be used for a DIY move. They can be driven on standard car licence, offer ample storage (enough to fit the contents of a 3-bedroom apartment or townhouse), and come with a trolley, ropes and rear lift for easy loading and unloading.
What’s the Difference Between Hiring a Truck and a Moving Van?
A moving truck, such as our 3-tonne Pantech trucks, is significantly larger than a standard delivery or moving van. Find out more about the differences in our blog post on van hire vs truck hire here.
How Large Are Your Trucks? What Are the Truck’s Dimensions?
Our trucks have a storage capacity of 20m³, which is enough to fit the contents of a 3-bedroom unit. Their internal dimensions are approx. 4.2m long x 2.1m wide x 2.1m high.
Do You Have Any Tips for Those Moving House with One Of Your Trucks?
When we hand over the truck to you, our team of drivers will introduce you to the truck’s operations and give you tips for packing the vehicle efficiently!
How many boxes fit in a 20m3 truck?
Our moving trucks are large enough for all essential household items. They can easily fit up to 200 moving boxes (50x40x40 cm) or 120 to 150 boxes plus furniture (bed, sofa, appliances).

Yes, our moving trucks can fit the contents of a typical 3-bedroom apartment or townhouse.
How Much Do I Stand to Save By Hiring a Truck Instead of a Removalist?
How much money you ultimately save when compared to a removalist depends on a number of key factors such as:
- The amount of furniture/equipment you are transporting
- The distance you require your items to be transported
- The time required to complete the move; this includes the time taken to load, transport and unload your equipment. Some removalists may also choose to include the time taken to travel from their headquarters to your premises as well
- The time of year and time of week that you’re looking to move. Removalist companies typically charge much more in the holiday seasons and extra expenses will be incurred for those looking to move on a weekend as opposed to a weekday
With all these factors considered, a removalist company can charge anywhere from several hundred dollars for a small-scale move that is local to many thousands of dollars to haul a larger amount of belongings. If you’re relocating interstate, a removalist will be substantially more expensive.
Do You Provide Ropes, Trolleys or Other Items to Make Loading and Unloading Easier?
All of our trucks come equipped with a rear lift, a trolley and ropes, which simplifies loading, unloading and securing your load! You don’t need to hire these extra, they are included in our standard prices.
