Move heavy piece of furniture Mont Albert to Box Hill

$100

Mont Albert VIC 3127, Australia

22nd Jul 2025

Looking for a team of reliable and strong removalists to carefully move a heavy piece of studio furniture from Mont Albert to Box Hill (less than 5 mins drive away). At delivery it needs to be unloaded in a parking garage with a height limit of 2.1 metres. If your vehicle is too high it could potentially be unloaded on the street and carried into the garage where it can be loaded into the lift. At pick up it needs to be taken down one flight of stairs with a turn in it. It can be disassembled into several peices which makes it lighter and easier to carry. Usually it sits in a heavy duty dolly which makes it easy to move once it’s on a level surface. The heavy top can be detached so it makes it a lot lighter and easier to carry. Also the doors can be removed which also makes it lighter. Pickup is in Mont Albert, and delivery is to Box Hill – less than a 5-minute drive away. No stairs at delivery location. • Dimensions when assembled: 161 x 60.9 x 85.8 cm Pickup location: Mont Albert VIC 3127, Australia Drop-off location: Box Hill VIC 3128, Australia Removals size: A few items Stairs: At pickup

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic service – careful, strong, and professional. Handled a heavy and awkward item down a tricky staircase with care and good humour. Arrived on time, worked efficiently, and took great care of the gear. Highly recommended!

I have a big and heavy console table needs to be moved from ground floor to 1st floor by stairs, it’s a piece of artwork so needs to be treated with extra care, it’s already wrapped and protected so as long as you don’t drop it off it’s gonna be fine, just too heavy I can’t do it safely myself. This Job requires at least 2 strong and skilled men.

Help Moving Light Boxes Downstairs (No Heavy Lifting!)

$70

Kew VIC 3101, Australia

9th Jun 2025

Hi there! Note: Final start time will be confirmed tomorrow morning (Tuesday) once I finalise an appointment. There’s a chance we may kick off slightly earlier — around 11:00AM Thursday 12 June — but current timing is 12:00PM ish. Thanks for your flexibility — I’ll update you first thing tomorrow! I’m looking for a friendly, energetic person to help me move a small load of belongings from my 1st-floor apartment (stairs, no lift) down to my van parked at the front. The job mainly involves boxes of clothes and books, a collapsed shelving unit, a few small orchids (already boxed safely), and bathroom items in containers. Nothing heavy, nothing awkward — just a bit more than I can safely manage myself right now (thanks to a busted foot and dodgy shoulder — good times!). I’m after someone with a spring in their step, who’s careful with plants and happy to navigate a straightforward 1-floor stair run. Should be an easy, breezy job for someone who enjoys keeping active! I estimate around 1 hour, maybe even less with a good flow. Cash bonus for great service!
