3m heavy couch to move up 2 flights of stairs (no transport)

Hi, I have a very heavy, 3m long couch that i need to get up 2 flights of stairs to my apartment frontdoor(currently located in my garage). Im not sure if it will fit up the stairs, so it may need to be assessed in person before. most likely requires more than 2 people due to the weight. Thanks
Heavy Lifting Assistance for Local Move (Van & Equipment Provided)
$250
Abbotsford VIC 3067, Australia
18th Jun 2026
I am moving between two apartments in Abbotsford and Kew that are only 1.6km apart. I have my own Toyota HiAce van, furniture dollies, large capacity hand trolley, a flatbed trolley and other moving equipment. THIS IS NOT A FULL REMOVALIST JOB AND NO TRUCK IS REQUIRED. I am mainly looking for assistance with the heavier and bulkier items, including: • Front load washing machine • Dryer • Tallboy • Small dining table (approx. 1m x 1.5m) • Several slimline bookcases • Items from two basement storage cages loaded directly into the van, a meter away from the cages. I also require a 2.5 seater powered leather recliner sofa to be relocated within the same apartment complex. The sofa does not need to be transported to the new address. It simply needs to be moved from my apartment, along the hallway, via the lift and into another apartment within the same building. There are no stairs at either property. Both buildings have lift access and flat ground access. I expect the job to take up to approximately 3 hours. Once the larger items have been completed, any remaining time can be used assisting with smaller items if required. Please advise whether you believe one person is sufficient for the recliner sofa, or whether a second person would be recommended. Refer to the pics attached. Looking to commence late morning or early arvo. Budget includes labour only. No vehicle required. Pickup location: Abbotsford VIC 3067, Australia Drop-off location: Kew VIC 3101, Australia Removals size: A few items Stairs: No

Move an extremely heavy table from Parkville to Brunswick
$400
Parkville VIC, Australia
25th May 2026
This job will require 4 strong men to complete. The table has been dismantled so that the tabletop is separate from the legs. It is solid oak and the table top weighs around 200kg. It’s is no joke extremely heavy. (Like marble or stone). Unfortunately it is on the 6th floor of an apartment building and does not fit in the lift (we have attempted). It will need to go down 6 flights of stairs. This will require smart and safe removalists and the right equipment. Pickup location: Parkville VIC, Australia Drop-off location: Brunswick VIC, Australia Removals size: A few items Stairs: At pickup
Clayton was absolutely incredible. He and his team mate moved an incredibly big and heavy table (over 200kgs) down 6 steep flights of stairs without a single problem. He’s also the nicest guy ever. Highly recommend

I would love some assistance to move a sofa to the re-upholster in Preston, from my place in Clifton Hill. Most likely on Saturday as they are open from 10.30am - 1pm. They close at 3pm on weekdays so might be hard to be home early enough as the sofa is a two person lift.
