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.

Re-arrange my storage unit + take furniture to the op-shop

$500

Ferntree Gully VIC, Australia

7th Jan 2026

Hello, My family and I are down sizing in readiness for moving into a rental. We have a 6x7 metre storage shed in Ferntree Gully. Half of it (at the back) is packed with boxes and can stay untouched. At the front of the unit are a lot of furniture items that were badly packed by the removal people that did the job initially. We need this front part (3x4 metres) dealt with. We need two folks to pull out what’s in the front and sort what is staying and being packed back into the shed (in a space saving manner) and what will be taken to an opshop. I will be letting you know what stays and what goes. I’m disabled so I need others to do the physical labour for me. I will be clear on what stays and what goes. I will then need these items from my storage unit taken to a local opshops that accepts furniture items(Salvos in Ferntree Gully does). All my stuff is in good condition so there should be no issues with them taking it. I’m not sure how much will need to be taken away - it could be 2-4 Ute loads. Please provide your own large vehicle for the job like a Ute or small truck/van. Two people (at least) will be needed for the job. Pickup location: Ferntree Gully VIC, Australia Removals size: Apartment Stairs: No

No packing is required only relocations of items! Urgent task to be completed 9pm tonight !! There are trolleys and lifts that can be used in order to move items from 1st floor to ground level to be put into a truck! All items are to be handled with care! I have limited funds available as this is not required much work nor is it a long task and you will only be travelling roughly 5-10 min up the road to next destination. Please do not be quoting anything over 350 for 2 hr period thank you. The storage unit items are your basic house hold items and you will be required to unload and pack neatly as properly with heaviest items on floor /bottom. U will have driveway access to drive right up to the new location and unload so there won’t be any stairs and it should be pretty easy once you’re there. Rough estimate of what of main items are in the unit currently not inc. boxes and extras are Heavy items: eg dryer, washing machine, couch, 2x bed frames, 2x mattresses heaps of boxes a lot are fragile to be handled with care, a lot sentimentals, 2x flat screen tvs couple tv units & more! You’ll be relocating a 3x5m storage unit that is completely full! Pickup location: Storage King Kilsyth VIC 3153 Drop-off location: Bayswater, VIC 3153
