The main factors that determine the duration of your move are:

>Access (Parking, stairs, elevator)Number of items

>Dis-assembling, reassembling of furniture

>Distance between properties

Below is an average guide. Please note this may not be indicative of your move and is there as a guide only:

>1 bedroom property ~ 2-4 hours

>2 bedroom property ~ 3-6 hours

>3 bedroom property ~ 4-7 hours

>4 bedroom property ~ 5-8 hour

We carry a tool kit with a drill, allen keys, screw drivers, spanners to dismantle & reassemble most common furniture such as beds, tables etc.If you have furniture that requires specialist tools, please have these on hand or request them from the manufacturer. 

In most cases the pipes can be unscrewed by hand. So, yes. However, if they are attached using specialist plumbing tools, you may need to contact a local plumber. 

Book your move as soon as you have locked in a moving date.  As a general rule, people normally book 2 to 4 weeks in advance. It’s worth noting, the most popular days for people wanting to move are towards the end of the week & weekends.

Yes. If you know you might run out of time or you’re overwhelmed with the whole moving process, we can help you with part of the pack or we can take care of the whole pack & move for you. We’ll come one or a few days before your move and pack all your belongings carefully into sturdy moving boxes for safe transit.

Yes. 

Please see list below:

>Flammable items (e.g Gas bottles liquids etc.)

>Pianos

>Billiard tables

Pianos & billiard tables require specialist equipment and tools to move.  Therefore we recommend you google “melbourne piano movers” and find a service provider that way.  We are not insured to carry flammable items. So, it’s probably best to transport them in your own vehicle.

The best way to save is by getting organised & starting weeks in advance.

>Get rid of stuff you don’t need

>Pack everything into boxes or bags

>Don’t overload big boxes with heavy items

>Organise parking as close as possible the night before

>Get us to only move the big items

>Keep pathways clear on moving day

>Help bring items to the truck on moving day

>Dis-assemble furniture

Yes. 

We can help with part of the pack or can take care of it completely. We can do this a day or so before the move so you don’t have to live with the clutter & boxes all around you.

It is preferred that you declutter first by either donating, recycling, or disposing of things you no longer need to save on packing time. Do this a few weeks or months prior to the move as this takes time. 

Start with things you can live without or don’t regularly use such as seasonal clothing, excess crockery, books etc.

Designate an area where you can stack boxes so they’re not in your way. 

Use the small boxes for heavy & fragile items. (Books, magazines etc. & crockery, glasses & cups)

Use big boxes for bulkier, light items such as bedding, tapeware, pots & pans etc.

This depends on the item & how many levels it needs to be hoisted up or down to. Since we use straps or mechanical hoists, we are limited to first or second level properties.

If you need to hoist things higher, you may need to engage the services of a crane hire company.

Here are some items that we commonly lift (up to ~70kgs):

>Mattresses (standard)

>Tables

What we don't do:
