Recent Heavy Lifting reviews in Inner South Melbourne

Tanya and her partner did a good job. Even if there was a misunderstand about the task price (was per hours instead of per task) they did allowed extra bit of time to move all the boxes. The van is quite small for a move but she was very good in packing it to the limit. Happy with the result.

Lift a king size mattress to a second story balcony

$180

Glen Huntly VIC 3163, Australia

4th Jan 2026

There are two elements to the job: 1) lifting a new king mattress (1800mm x 2000mm x 35mm) from ground level to the first story balcony. 2) lifting an existing king mattress (same dimensions as above) from the first story balcony down to ground level. The mattresses need to be lifted/lowered to the first story balcony either from our driveway or the adjacent laneway as shown in the attached photos. The balcony balustrade is not very strong so can't have any load applied to it - the mattresses must be lifted clean over the balustrade without using the balustrade in any way for the lift. The height of the top of the balcony balustrade from ground level is ~4400mm.

Malvern VIC 3144, Australia

I’ve a heavy table that I’ve managed to get out of my car and into the building but that’s as far as I could get it. Looking for someone (probably two strong people or we could assist a ding one strong person) to get the table the rest of the way. The table is a wooden square, 1100x1100m and just unnecessarily heavy. Before I scare off potential taskers, I have managed to get it from my ute and into my house before now and yesterday, with some assistance, we’ve managed to get it from ute into another building … we were just super hesitant when looking up the stairs! Will update post with pictures shortly. Thanks for reading this far
