Before you attempt your move, there are a few questions that you should answer. That will ensure you understand the current laws, rules, and regulations that govern removal in Australia.

Can Removalists operate during this Pandemic?

The answer is yes, Removalists can operate despite what seems to be contradictory news reports. Remember that you can move from one residence to another. Since most people who are moving own both their old and new residences at the same time, there is no restriction in going from one to the other.

The only rules that do apply in this situation is that you maintain the correct social distancing from others and any state or territorial rules that may apply as well. Keep in mind that there is no legislation that prevents you from leaving your home or entering a new home.

Moving to Harvey Bay, Brisbane, Townsville from Interstate

If you are moving from one state to another state, you will be allowed in if it is your permanent place of residence with the exception of Western Australia. This means that the travel is considered essential. So, whether you are moving from or to Harvey Bay, Brisbane or Townsville, one point to another inside a state or between states, all travel that is part of a move to that state is considered essential travel.

However, while you may move freely across the country save for Western Australia, in some states you may have to quarantine you and your family for up to 14 days. Some of the quarantine rules are as follows.

Northern Territory: When you arrive at the border, you will need to fill out a border arrival form and be moved to a designated location for 14 days. When the 14 days are completed, you can then proceed to your residence. You will have to pay for any accommodation costs as a result of being quarantined.

Queensland: If you are moving into Queensland from another state, you must enter quarantine for the next 14 days at your new residence if you like.

South Australia: Self-quarantine is required for 14 days when you arrive at your new home after entering the state.
Tasmania: Similar to the Northern Territory, but the government will provide the accommodations.

Western Australia: This is the only state that is closed in terms of moving into one of the nine regions that make up Western Australia. You may apply for a special exemption for this type of travel.

Australia Capital Territory, New South Wales, and Victoria: There are no compulsory quarantine or isolation when moving into these states or territories.
