Move heavy furniture from deck to adjacent kitchen

$600

Petersham NSW 2049, Australia

26th Mar 2026

I’m looking for a team of 2 to bring kitchen fixtures back in and secure. As this is a reinstallation, most cabinet holes are already predrilled and just require a fixing with screws. Drilling of some holes through plywood is required 1. The 3 small cabinets that house the sink need to be screwed together using existing screw holes, and attached at the rear to a wall mounted support timber beam. They also need to be bolted at the front to the metal footing that they are sitting on. The metal footing already has required holes. Bolt heads need to be recessed/countersunk. 2. Next move single dish drawer dishwasher from deck to kitchen and secure to cabinet using existing 3 screw holes. Easy access for both these tasks since the sink is not installed yet. 3. Next, move large kitchen sink from deck to kitchen. Place atop cabinets and level with existing levellers. Remember this is a reinstall so this is redoing what has already been done previously which simplifies things somewhat. I’ll take care of the grouting/siliconing later 4. Move fridge from deck to kitchen. Fridge has double set of rear castors, so this is tilt and push. One of the castors came off when the fridge was moved last week and so fridge needs to be tilted and held while the castor is clicked back into place. Definitely 2 men for this fiddly step 5. Move heavy kitchen island from deck to kitchen I’ve removed the contents, draws, and doors from the island to minimise the weight but it’s still over 100kgs. Island fits easily through sliding doors. Once in place, slight lift and repositioning required to align with gas and power coming up through floor. The distance from deck to island is approximately 6-7 metres. Flat surface and no step from deck to kitchen. Reinstall island doors and drawers onto existing drawer runner/ brackets
