A Little on the Australia Furniture Removers Association

What is AFRA?

AFRA is an accreditation agency that regulates the removals industry. Not only does AFRA ensure its members meet their high standards for equipment, training, and more, but they even work with Government departments to help make decisions about the removals industry.

AFRA is made up of removals experts from a variety of backgrounds, including professional removalists, truck drivers, and policy experts, just to name a few. AFRA’s stamp of approval is the most important vote of confidence there is for a company in our business. In Australia, there are about 350 Furniture Removal companies that are members of AFRA.

How AFRA Can Help You

Obviously, AFRA can help you find and choose professional removalists near you. All AFRA endorsed removalists are professional companies that have proven themselves to be of the utmost reliability. You can check out their website for a list, or you can save time and call Two Men and a Truck right now… we’ve been members of AFRA for nearly 20 years.

Like our articles on packaging valuables or what to do before you move, AFRA’s website offers loads of helpful tips for moving house. They even have videos! They also have an exhaustive Q & A list that includes all types of questions, like ‘Should the removalists remove their shoes/boots when walking in the house?’ and ’Am I expected to give the removalists any food or drinks when they are working?’ Check out AFRA’s website and our previous articles for tons of information on planning and preparing for your move.

How AFRA Helps Us

AFRA isn’t just for consumers. AFRA offers training and guidance to professional removalists and keeps us up to speed on the latest legal and industry changes. Membership includes Public Liability Insurance and Transit Insurance to protect everyone involved, should the unexpected occur. They put us in touch with people like you: individuals, families, and companies seeking the highest quality professional removalists.

But, what Two Men and a Truck like best about AFRA membership is that it constantly pushes us to maintain our sterling reputation and recognises our efforts to be the best professional removalists in the business. Our company is made up of passionate men and women who literally sweat to get the job done, from small office moves to our teams of professional interstate removalists. Our AFRA membership acknowledges that hard work. We like to think of the AFRA seal as a badge of honour!
