Inventory List for Backloading Removals

Creating an Inventory List for Cheap Backloading Removals


Creating a complete and correct inventory list for your move is the key to getting an accurate moving quote, and to making sure that moving day goes smoothly. Cheap backloading rates often depend on knowing exactly what is going into the truck, and when something unexpected pops up, it can means hours of wasted time and sometimes extra charges. You can ensure that you make the most accurate possible estimation of the space required for your move by:

  • Walking around the inside and outside of your house, listing every item that will not be going into a moving box.
  • Doing a trial pack of some of your belongings into cartons to help you get a better idea of how many boxes they will be packed into

List every item from rooms and areas such as:

  • Master bedroom
  • Extra bedrooms
  • Lounge
  • Dining area
  • Kitchen
  • Laundry
  • Bathrooms
  • Outside
  • Garage
  • Items stored in either the basement or roof

List the dimensions of any item that will not be going into a box. List the dimensions of all the different boxes used.

Consider creating a photo or video inventory
This technique has both advantages and disadvantages. It can work in your favour, because often an insurance company will require a photo or video record of your belongings in order to cover them anyway. However, cheap backloading removalists will often need a written inventory in order to create a quote anyway, and may not be able to give you a price from a video record alone.

We recommend that you create a photo or video record of your belongings in addition to your written inventory list. This will help you get the cheapest backloading rates possible, without concern that your things might not fit in the truck.
