Top Removals related questions

The general rule of thumb is to book a removal service four to eight weeks ahead of time. Early booking gives you more time to gather removal offers and compare your choices. What’s more, your house removalists can prepare the proper equipment and packing materials for your specific needs. But if you’re dealing with a last-minute move, Airtasker can still help you out! We’ll help you find available and reliable removalists in your area. Still, it’s best to book your removal service ASAP for a stress-free move.

Not at all. The moving company or individual removalist can provide the materials for your moving needs. Inform your removalist ahead of time of relevant details. Information, such as the size of your home or the types of items you need to move, can help them plan. They can provide disassembly tools, ropes, boxes, or other packaging materials for your removals. But if you do have some stuff on hand, feel free to ask your Tasker to use them as well!

Yes, removalists can also reassemble your furniture at the new location. From beds to fitness equipment, your furniture removalist can help set up your items. Take note that some removal services merely pick up and transport items. In this case, you’ll have to do the packing yourself. But on Airtasker, you can request for removals that include packing, transporting, and setting up your furniture.

Expert removal services properly pack and transport your furniture. As a result, you can have peace of mind and not worry about damages that could occur as you move your items. An experienced removalist will have the proper tools and skills to do the removals for you. Also, they can handle the heavy lifting with ease.

Mover costs for an inter-territory moving may range between $500 and $1,000. However, long-distance moving that takes more or less 18 hours of work time will cost around $3,900 to $5,000. 

On a per-hour basis, moving within Auckland can cost $100 to $280 per hour and $110 to $250 in Hawkes Bay.

This could go higher or lower, depending on several factors.

Yes, you can. Airtasker allows you to book same-day removalist services, depending on Tasker availability in your area. If you need urgent help with moving furniture, transporting items to storage, or clearing out a property, simply post a task and select “ASAP” or today’s date. Be sure to include as many details as possible — like what needs to be moved, your location, and access restrictions — to increase your chances of getting fast responses from available removalists near you.

You can book a wide range of removalist services on Airtasker, including:

  • House moving service – Full home relocations including packing, loading, transport, and unpacking

  • Furniture removals – Disassembly, wrapping, and moving of furniture to a new home or storage

  • Office removals – Office equipment and furniture relocations

  • Storage moves – Transporting items in and out of storage facilities

  • Single item moves – For things like fridges, couches, or wardrobes

  • Specialty removals – Including fitness equipment, pianos, or fragile items

  • Clearance and rubbish removals – Disposing of unwanted furniture or clutter

  • End of lease removals and cleaning – A combination of moving out and property cleaning services

Whether you need to find movers for a small task or a full-scale move, Airtasker makes it easy to connect with local, trusted removalists ready to help.

What do removal services include?

If you’re moving out or selling some furniture, our removalists are here to help! Removal services include disassembling and packing away small and big items in your home. Afterwards, your removalist can transport the items to a new property. Then, they can unpack and assemble the items at your new premises.

 

Airtasker connects you to trusted removal services near you. Whether you need help removing furniture or complicated equipment, you can find affordable removalists on our platform. Our services are flexible to anything you need. Here’s an overview of removal services you can book on Airtasker.

 

Furniture disassembly

House removals include disassembling your furniture and packing them up for transport. Hire an experienced removalist through Airtasker. We’ll help you find removalists who know how to pack up your furniture for compact and secure storage. Furniture disassembly covers all types of furniture like beds, wardrobes, tables, and bookcases. Further, removalists may also provide packaging materials and disassemble your other furniture. These items include outdoor dining sets, swing sets, and even your BBQ equipment.


Fitness equipment disassembly

Disassembling fitness equipment can be more complicated than packing away furniture. The task may involve electrical equipment, extra heavy parts, and labelling small components; fitness equipment removalists can handle the ins and outs of this complex task. Our removalists can remove exercise bikes, treadmills, home gyms, and other fitness equipment for you. Tell us about the specifics of your removal needs, and we’ll connect you to someone who can help.

 

Furniture & fitness equipment transport

Most removalists can provide house moving services via car, removal van, or lorry. When posting your Airtasker request, specify the size and number of items you need to remove. We have Taskers who specialise in wardrobe delivery and many other types of furniture and equipment transport. It’s easy to find a removalist and removal van hire on our platform. Just post your request and get free quotes from removalists near you.

 

Clearance services

Aside from removal services, Airtasker also offers clearance services for your other moving needs. Our rubbish removals can dispose of items you no longer need. With a clearance service, you can have a fresh start with a clutter-free space! You can even book an end of lease cleaning through our platform for a thorough clean.
