Local Movers Blog

Needed for buying/selling, but not if you’re just moving out to rent elsewhere.

Movers, solicitor’s fees, stamp duty (if buying), agent’s fees (if selling), utilities, boxes, cleaning, and connections.

Clean as you go, leave manuals and keys, thank the movers, and inform the neighbours.

Sunday or midweek (like a Wednesday)—avoid Fridays and bank holiday weekends.

Pack unused rooms first, essentials last; load heavier furniture before boxes on moving day.

Most buy boxes, as it’s less costly up front than renting plastic—sharp deals for cardboard locally.

For a standard home, removal contents cost €1,000–€2,000 within Ireland.

If buying, yes—currently 1% of the property’s value up to €1m in Ireland.

Yes, €3,000 easily covers removals, boxes, solicitor fees, and even a takeaway or two for most Irish moves.

Full-service movers, long-distance transport, storage and packing services.
