2 Strong Men: Lift Glass Aquarium out of Hatchback (Reservoir)

$60

Reservoir VIC, Australia

6th Jan 2026

I need two strong people to lift a 120cm glass aquarium from my car and place it inside my home.Item: 1 x Glass Aquarium (120x35 x45cm). Glass: We believe it's 10mm Starfire glass, so it's heavy and fragile. Weight: Approx 50kg. The Workflow: Lift 1: Carefully remove the tank from the car and place it on the garage floor. The "Prep" Gap: I will quickly unwrap the bottom cardboard tray (just cutting tape) so the tank is ready for final placement. Lift 2: Carry the tank from the garage into the house and place it in its designated spot. Access & Distance: Distance: Garage to the house interior is only about 10-15 steps. Steps: Only one single step from the garage into the house. No other stairs. Requirements:Strength: You must be able to deadlift 30kg+ each comfortably, as you will be lifting from the floor. Care: Must have steady hands and move with caution—this is a high-clarity glass tank.

Jason was a legend! He and his partner moved a 200L tank for me and were incredibly professional. I had some major issues with store stock not being ready, but Jason was extremely patient, polite, and communicated well throughout the delays. They handled the heavy glass with total care and made a stressful situation much easier. Highly recommend if you need a reliable, patient mover for fragile items!

Carry heavy sideboard up staircase

$90

Preston VIC, Australia

30th Dec 2025

I’ve just moved house and have a solid timber sideboard downstairs that needs to be carried up my staircase. It’s heavy and awkward, and the staircase has a turn near the top — so this needs people who know what they’re doing. This is at least a two-person job (possibly three), ideally with lifting straps or other moving equipment to protect the furniture and the walls/banister. I can remove drawers/doors beforehand to reduce weight. Location: Preston Timing: Flexible today or soon Budget: $90 (happy to discuss if it’s trickier than expected) Photos of the staircase and the sideboard are attached.

Jeff helped me move a heavy sideboard up my very awkward staircase. This is a valuable piece of furniture which he took care with and navigated up the stairs skillfully and quickly. He was quick to respond, punctual and completed the job perfectly. I absolutely would use his services again - you can trust that he will get things done and he will do it well :)
