About our Short Notice or Last Minute Moving service
Last minute moving is stressful, but it can still be done well. When you need to move at short notice, or a previous mover has let you down, Leopard Movers can plan the move quickly, subject to crew and vehicle availability. Call or WhatsApp us with your date, both addresses and a list or photos of what needs to move, and we will tell you what is possible.
How to prepare for a last minute move
- Make a simple checklist and book your mover first, so the date is secured.
- Declutter quickly: set aside what you will not take instead of packing it.
- Gather boxes, bubble wrap, tape, markers and labels before you start.
- Pack one room at a time and label every box with its room and contents.
- Take apart larger furniture where you can, which saves space and reduces damage.
- Keep documents, keys, chargers and sentimental valuables with you, in one bag.
- Ask friends or family to help with packing while the movers handle the heavy lifting.
Who this suits
This service suits people with a sudden relocation, a sale or lease that changed dates, a mover who cancelled, or anyone who simply started planning late.
