For any essential items that are required quickly, airfreight offers a faster delivery time. Airfreight can be be more expensive than seafreight, but this is not always the case when transporting a small quantity of items, so for more urgent consignments Airfreight can be cost effective.

Many clients choose to Airfreight their personal items due to it arriving quickly. The cost of sending your items via Airfreight is normally calculated by the total weight of your goods.

However, if you have larger items, for example bicycles, the cost may be determined by the size rather than the weight, as these goods will take up more space in the aircraft, this is known as a volumetric rate.

Hunts International can provide a door –to-door, or door to airport service. Your personal effects are expertly wrapped and packed at your residence, and where required crated for extra protection and security prior to being delivered to the Airport. Airfreight consignments take between 4 and 10 days depending on the destination and the service level you choose.

Our Team of Moving CoOrdinators will discuss with you all matters of Customs and Duties and are at hand every step of the way whether you personal effects are going by Airfreight or Deep Sea shipping container.

There are a few major things you must consider before you Ship furniture to Australia:

Prohibited goods when shipping to Australia

AQIS will not permit the importation of the following items as personal effects:

• fresh fruit and vegetables
• live plants and bulbs
• prohibited and restricted seeds
• unidentified seeds, which can include some foods, including spices
• live animals (including pets) that require an import permit
• biological products including some plant based, herbal medications
• unprocessed goods of plant or animal origin
• soiled items, or items containing organic residues
• items knowingly infested with pests or a disease.

If you are in doubt of an item and want to determine if the item is prohibited by AQIS, check the AQIS import conditions database—ICON

If you are not using our service of a full pack for Australia shipping and you are packing your personal items into boxes yourself you MUST CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:

What should I do when packing furniture to Australia?

Preparation is an important key to packing up your household goods to ensure a successful move. When packing, take the time to prepare household goods for AQIS inspection upon arrival.

YOU MUST CLEAN YOUR GOODS!

Before packing, AQIS requires that any items that have been in contact with food, soil, plants, animals, or their products, are thoroughly cleaned and free from any contamination.

This includes, but is not limited to:

• all used equipment and machinery—drain all standing water, and ensure the equipment is free from contamination
• garden furniture, tools and implements—make sure all soil, animal and plant debris are removed and all surfaces are thoroughly cleaned
• animal bedding and grooming equipment—wash and vacuum animal bedding, and clean grooming equipment to ensure all residual pet hair has been removed
• waste bins, brooms, vacuum cleaners—make sure all waste is removed and the equipment is thoroughly cleaned
• fresh water sporting equipment—make sure reservoirs are completely drained and dry, and that equipment is dry on arrival, including wetsuits, gumboots and fishing tackle.

Other tips when you ship furniture to Australia:

• Check surfaces of your timber items for any signs of insect infestation (sawdust–like powder, fresh holes, chewed timber or tunnels).
• If you find signs of insect infestation, consider either not bringing the item, or treating it for the timber pests prior to shipment.

• Kitchen goods—do not pack half opened packages of dry foods, herbs and spices that may be harbouring insect pests that are difficult to see.
• Consider whether you really need to ship any natural plant or animal product that has not undergone some form of manufacturing process. These items may need expensive treatments, at your own cost, to mitigate quarantine risks on arrival in Australia. Cheap tourist souvenirs made of untreated plant or animal products, subsequently requiring treatments in Australia, can end up costing more than you would expect.

Packing list of boxes & furniture for Customs

When packing your personal effects, prepare a list that includes all the items in your consignment. This should include clear labeling, for example ‘Box 1 of 12′, and a list of items contained in each box. This list will be required by the authorities in Australia.

Take time to consider the items AQIS inspectors may be interested in. Pack these items together and put them in boxes separate to those that you consider clearly not to be of quarantine concern. For example, ensure quarantine items such as footwear, food items or garden tools are packed together.

If you are bringing food items, show on the packing list where the food items have been packed or what containers the food items have been packed in.

Used packing boxes

Some second hand boxes that were intended for other uses may pose a risk to quarantine.

Do not use any packing boxes that have already been in contact with an organic substance such as cartons or inserts used previously with fruit, meat, eggs, flowers or pot plants, or fertiliser bags.

Do not use straw, sawdust, wood shavings or any other plant material as packing or filler.

Previous labelling

If second hand boxes are being used, the chances are that they have old numbering or labelling on them. To avoid confusion which may lead to misunderstandings or delays, ensure that any previous labelling on your packing boxes is covered or removed completely. Make sure you use a permanent marker/felt pen to write on boxes in preference to labels that can fall off in transit.

Numbering of boxes

It is important that the numbers on packing boxes match with the numbers on the packing list. Only write one number for each box or large item. Also, number similar items consecutively, for example 3 children’s bikes could be numbered as 56, 57 and 58 etc.

Removals to Australia.com will make a full inventry on numbering and labeling all your items packed upon collection and delivery, also we will fully export wrap all items of furniture for transportation to Australia.

Hunts Removals C/O Removals to Australia.com has successfully carried out hundreds of families moving to Adelaide, we work very closely with our detination partner removalist  in Adelaide Australia, who will assist you with all your removal & customs requirements in adelaide.

Our team at Removals to Australia.com has come together just to give you a little information on Adelaide and any latest housing news you should be aware of.

Adelaide is really nice – very quite and a pretty part of Australia. The Adelaide hills are also very lovely and with the new freeway it doesnt take very long at all to get to the city. Stirling, Hahndorf as well as Mount Barker are all gorgeous places to live….lovely trees everywhere. Adelaide has very affordable housing compared to the eastern states.

The city centre is planned as a grid system which is surrounded by green parklands thus earning it the name of city in a park. The CBD (or Central Business District) is home to an array of entertainment and facilities including the bustling Rundle Mall, home of over 600 shops and those infamous silver balls. You will also find numerous museums, galleries, Adelaide Zoo and Elder Park where you can relax on the edges of the River Torrens along with much more. Adelaide’s Central Market is a great place to spend the day soaking up the atmosphere, located in the city centre next to China Town.

If you are moving to Adelaide it has recently been placed on water restrictions ( currently for Adelaide it is level 3a water restrictions ) and they have been asked to have water saving shower heads and to save every drop of water where possible – more dishes less to wash up and 4 minute showers per person in each household the water tanks are for rain water for rain water collection and our government offers a rebate / grant for those making the choice and decision of putting in a water tank (check to see if your new house has a rain water tank fitted) in order to use THAT water for garden and showers and drinking water etc rather than from the dams as adelaide are now in the process of building a couple of desalinisation building’s in order to solve the water shortage problem.

Does your new house have a reverse cycle air conditioning? These are electric heating systems which also provide refrigerative cooling. How does reverse cycle air conditioning work? Most electric heaters create heat directly, using elements which heat up when an electric current passes through them. These ‘direct element’ heaters include portable heaters, panel convectors and off-peak storage heaters. They have a maximum efficiency of 100%, when all the electricity is converted to heat and delivered to the room. Reverse cycle air conditioning extracts heat from the outside air, even on mid-winter nights, and transfers it inside. A refrigerant is passed through an external coil, absorbing heat from the outside air.

This refrigerant is then pumped through a compressor into a fan coil unit (or ‘condenser’) inside the home, releasing its heat into the room. Up to three or more units of heat can be transferred for every unit of electricity used to run reverse cycle air conditioning. Therefore, running costs can be as low as one-third of those for direct element heaters. By reversing the flow of this refrigerant, reverse cycle air conditioners also provide efficient refrigerative cooling in summer. in short term . . another way of saving and conserving energy or going ” GREEN ” as they say and or environmentally friendly .
