Tips For Moving to Brisbane
Brisbane is known for its subtropical climate, with hot, humid summers and mild, dry winters. The best time to relocate is generally between March and May. The weather is comfortable, with average temperatures of 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). The humidity is lower, and there’s less rain, so it’s easier to adjust as you settle into your new environment. If arriving during the summer months (December to February), prepare for temperatures soaring above 30°C (86°F) and tropical storms. Moving day can be more challenging in summer.
All hot humid climates have their share of insect pests. Repellent helps ward off mosquitoes and in this case the Ross River virus they bring. New homes are built to defend against cockroaches, termites, etc. but if your looking at living in an older home consider repairs to screens and treating the soil around the house to drive the pests away, BEFORE moving in.
Brisbane has some issues, like many large cities, with traffic flow. The added distances between things causes travel time to vary unexpectedly. No one means to be late but here it is an accepted understanding. Movers arriving on time, tends to be the norm none the less, given their familiarity with time of day issues and options. As soon as your possessions are cleared by customs and their storage facilities advise releasing them, a delivery date can be arranged that is in harmony with any other arrangements you’ve made for gas, electricity, water and broadband installations.
Welcome to the land of Brisbanites, who are are known for their easygoing attitude and friendly demeanor. Whether you’re enjoying a BBQ in one of the city’s many parks or catching a river cruise, you’ll find that Brisbane’s culture is every bit laid-back and community-oriented.
