Top Moving to Storage related questions

Prices vary across Australia, but most people pay around $70–$150 per hour for a removalist, depending on how much you’re moving, the distance to the storage companies, and whether packing is included.

International relocation costs depend heavily on the country you’re moving from, the volume of your belongings, and whether you need door-to-door service. On average, shipping a full household to Australia can range from $6,000 to $15,000+, with additional fees for customs, insurance, and quarantine inspections.

Yes, most Australian removalists can transport and unload your belongings directly into your chosen storage centre. Just make sure you provide convenient access details, hours of operation, and any gate codes beforehand.

Storage units can be a solid investment in areas with high population density or limited housing space. Demand for flexible storage solutions continues to grow, but like any investment, returns depend on storage requirements, location, occupancy rates, management costs, and how much space you're targeting.

The monthly cost depends on the size of the unit and whether you choose standard or climate-controlled long term storage. Generally, Aussies pay between $120 and $350 per month, with metro areas like Sydney and Melbourne sitting at the higher end.

Look for removalists with verified Airtasker profiles, real customer reviews, transparent quotes, and clear communication. Be wary of operators who demand large upfront payments, refuse to provide written details, or have no online presence.

Most packers and removalists won’t handle hazardous goods, flammables, gas bottles, perishable food, chemicals, or anything restricted under Australian transport regulations. Always check with your Tasker and your storage facility’s guidelines before the moving day.

What does a moving to storage service include?

Moving and storage services in Australia usually combine packing, loading, transport, and coordination to help you transition your belongings into a storage container unit with ease. 

Whether you’re looking for flexible storage solutions during a renovation, shifting items between storage facilities, or hiring someone to store your stuff for a short stint between homes, Airtasker connects you with storage removalists who can handle the heavy lifting and keep the whole process running smoothly. For other moving support, check out Airtasker’s main removals services.

Here’s what’s typically included when booking a moving to storage service on Airtasker:

Packing and preparation for storage

If you need help getting your items ready for storage, you can request packing and preparation support when posting your task. This may include wrapping fragile items, organising boxes by room, disassembling furniture, and labeling cartons so they’re easy to find later. 

If you prefer to prepare everything on your own, your storage removalist can jump straight to loading. But for many customers, having a helping hand with packing makes a world of difference, especially when moving houses.

Loading your items safely

Once everything’s boxed up, your storage removalist will handle the heavy lifting. They’ll load your household goods, appliances, furniture, and storage totes into their vehicle with care. Whether you’re moving from one storage unit to another or transporting items from home into a self-storage facility, your Tasker will ensure your belongings are safely placed and evenly secured, so you're stress-free from A to B.

Transport to your storage unit

After loading up, your storage removalist will transport your items to the storage facility of your choice. They’re familiar with common storage simple site layouts and access rules, which help keep everything running smoothly. They’ll coordinate with you regarding gate codes, unit numbers, and any time restrictions. For those with storage options which are close to home, some man with a van removalists offer small van or moving truck options to keep costs low.

Unloading and organising your storage unit

Once they arrive, your storage removalist can unload everything directly into your storage unit. They can also help you organise your items inside the space so you can easily access what you need later. If you’re setting aside seasonal items or storing business inventory, a bit of extra organisation goes a long way. 

Additional services

Depending on the Tasker you choose, you might also get help wrapping furniture, discarding old packing materials, or reorganizing an existing unit. You can also ask for help taking items to donation centres or transporting unwanted goods to a recycling facility. Just specify any add-ons you need when posting your task so your Tasker can plan accordingly.

Don’t hesitate booking Barry. He was friendly and a pro moving all our gear and had all the moving blankets and equipment to transport and protect your things. He was also very kind with his patience and time when we got held up at the storage unit, and helped us problem solve. Could have been a lot more stressful without his helpful attitude. Would definitely book again. Thanks Barry!
