Beyond impressed! Abdallah and his righthand man did such a brilliant job moving what I’d expected to be a 3 man job, with such care and strategy. Manoeuvring a 2.5m HEAVY wooden sideboard is one thing. Getting it in a room from a hallway is a whole other set of skills. Definitely saving his number for any future jobs, and would highly recommend him for your job. Punctual. Friendly. Careful. Efficient.

Help me move a very heavy bookshelf within my home

15th Jan 2026
We need to get this heavy bookshelf (about 160cm x 100cm x 25cm) up two flights of stairs and around a corner between the flights - see photos. We need about 2 strong people who can manage this task and put the shelves in my daughter’s bedroom. Photos taken of the item, and the stairs up which it must be taken and the corner between flights. My husband can help too if required. I fear the shelves are about 75-100kg. Questions? Feel free to ask. Thanks, Diana

Move 2 heavy tables

We have 2 heavy chiropractic tables that needs to be moved from the ground floor to the garage. They are very heavy tables. They need to be taken outside the office(which is in ground floor) and they need to be placed in garage. They need to be moved outside office, then move them through the road and go to the garage behind the office and place them in garage. It only takes about 15 minutes. But need at least 3 people as those tables are heavy.

2 People: Quick Lift & Placement of Washing Machine onto Base Unit
$50
Blackburn South VIC, Australia
4th Nov 2025
I am looking for two strong and reliable individuals to safely lift and place my washing machine onto a recently built base unit/pedestal. This is a quick and straightforward task that requires coordinated heavy lifting. What is Required: 1. Safety First: Coordinated, safe, and careful lifting of the washing machine. 2. Lifting: Lift the washing machine (standard front-loader size, approx. 82) from the laundry floor. 3. Placement: Carefully place the washing machine squarely onto the pre-assembled base unit/pedestal. 4. No Plumbing/Electrics: No connection or disconnection of hoses or power is required. The machine will be fully disconnected and ready to move prior to your arrival. 5. Care of Property: Care must be taken to avoid scratching the floor, the base unit, or the washing machine. The base unit is fully assembled and has small slider pads under the legs. Details of Items: * Washing Machine: Standard size front-loader. (See photo.) * Base Unit: Flat pack unit, which is now fully assembled and in place. The box image is provided for reference of the unit type. (See photo.) * Location: The lift is a very short distance, straight up from the floor onto the unit in the laundry area. (See photo of the laundry area.) Important Notes: * This is a two-person job due to the weight and awkwardness of the washing machine. * Please confirm that you have experience with heavy/awkward lifting. Availability: Please state your availability. I am looking to get this done this week or weekend.
Great communication, easy to deal with, good attention to detail and care.

1. Move two fridges (swap their locations). Distance is just a few meters from each other. 2. Move 3 very heavy stone pot planters into a skip (bin). Distance from backyard to skip is 20m, but it's a very steep driveway 3. Dissemble and dispose of garden shed into same skip. In terms of dates, earlier the better. I'm available all days this week.
