About our apartment removals
Apartment moves are won or lost on access. In the CBD, Southbank and Docklands most buildings need a lift booking, a loading dock time slot and sometimes a certificate of currency for insurance. Tell us your building’s rules when you book and we’ll plan around them.
Walk-up flats in suburbs like St Kilda, Carnegie and Footscray are the opposite problem: no lift, narrow stairwells and street parking. Add the number of flights in the form so the estimate includes them, and we’ll bring the right crew.
Smaller apartments usually need two movers and our standard truck. If you’re moving out of one apartment and into another on the same day, we’ll time the job around both buildings’ bookings.
Who it’s for

Apartment Removals: frequently asked questions
Do I need to book the lift?
Usually, yes. Most apartment buildings need the lift and loading dock booked with building management. Tell us the time slot and we’ll plan the job around it. A booked lift adds a small fee because of the extra coordination and padding.
How much does it cost to move a 1 bedroom apartment in Melbourne?
Most 1 bedroom apartments take 2.5–3.5 hours with two movers, including the call-out and a short drive, at $105/hr plus GST. Stairs, lift bookings and parking change the price, and the quote form shows your estimate as you answer.
What if there’s nowhere for the truck to park?
Tell us in the form. Difficult parking adds $25 per address, and a long carry over 25 metres adds $30. Some councils let you apply for a temporary parking permit, which helps keep the cost down.
Can you move us on a weekend when the building allows moves?
Yes. Many buildings only allow moves at certain times, including weekends. Weekend rates apply: Saturday +$10/hr, Sunday +$20/hr.
