Thank you so much!! Trent was truly amazing! He helped me (i.e. did all the heavy lifting, masterminded the plan and guided me through what little I had to do) to get a heavy solid timber headboard to the second floor through my balcony, then up a flight of stairs!! He was professional, communicated so well and did an amazing job or this tricky situation all at a reasonable price! Thank you so much Trent!

Covered truck with tail-gate lift and two strong blokes Mt Waverley

$600

Mount Waverley VIC, Australia

6th Aug 2025

Moving about 30 big pot plants in big pots that have been trimmed to 2.1 metres high. Your truck must have an internal clearance of 2.1 metres or higher, which excludes vans. No open trays trucks. Some of the pot plants are located on our front deck and there are five concrete steps down from the deck to the driveway. The remaining pot plants are in the driveway so should be easy loading onto your tail gate lift. The delivery is to the end of a driveway for a house in Sunbury, which is about an hour's drive from Mt Waverley. In addition I have two large pot plants that are NOT being transported that I need relocating next door. Pickup location: Mount Waverley VIC, Australia Drop-off location: Sunbury VIC, Australia Removals size: A few items Stairs: At pickup

A big thanks to Danilo and his hard working team in moving a monster of a cactus and some other large pot plants across town. Good communication from Danilo when his team was running slightly late. The boys took slightly longer to load than I had anticipated as I hadn't appreciated the challenges and the care that was required. Highly recommended for their care, presentation and patience, and I will be using them again.
