Hi,

We have a slight dilemna which I am sure has been experienced previously by fellow BE members.

We have the benefit of a short term rental for the first 4 weeks however, our container does not arrive for at least 8 weeks.

On the basis we find a long term rental within 4 weeks, we intend to hire temporary furniture until our container arrives...

What companies in Perth offer the hire of furniture packs ?

Thanks

There's quite a few different companies. Some seem to have a minimum rental period of 6 months (but you should be able to work out a shorter period). Others are better suited for migrants with furniture in transit:

Unless your employer is paying, you would need to calculate if the cost of hiring is worth it, or if you take the "camping indoors" or "living like a backpacker" options and make do with a few camping items and/or sofa beds that you can use later.
