How to Move House in Brisbane During Storm Season

🌧️ Moving House in Brisbane’s Storm Season? Don’t Let the Rain Ruin Your Day

Brisbane’s storm season (typically October to March) can turn a straightforward move into a soaked, stressful mess — unless you plan properly.

If you’re moving during this time, it’s not just about the weather — it’s about working with removalists who are prepared for it. At Get It Cheaper, we connect you with local movers experienced in wet-weather moves who won’t bail when clouds roll in.


🛠️ What Makes Storm Season Moves Risky?

  • 🌧️ Sudden downpours with no warning

  • ⚡ Delays from flooded roads or blocked routes

  • 📦 Damaged boxes, wet mattresses, and soggy couches

  • 🧼 Messy foot traffic that makes bond cleaning harder

  • 🕐 Tight timing windows with limited dry spells

A storm doesn’t have to ruin your move — but you do need the right team and gear in place.


✅ How to Prepare for a Wet-Weather Move

  1. Wrap mattresses and lounges in plastic or shrink wrap

  2. Use waterproof tubs for fragile items or electronics

  3. Book morning slots to dodge late-day summer storms

  4. Lay down towels or sheets to protect flooring

  5. Ask movers about wet-weather policies or rescheduling options
