Recent Heavy Lifting reviews in Melbourne

Alex and his brother were fantastic. They turned up on time and kept me in the loop of how they were going during the delivery process. The actual moving of plants ended up being much harder than anyone expected, but they kept on smiling and my plants were delivered to their new home. Couldn’t meet greater and reliable Air Taskers this this duo. Thanks again. Louise

Move a heavy glass panel and despose

$100

Northcote VIC, Australia

7th Jun 2025

The movers left behind a glass pane in the property i have recently vacated. It is located within a BIR, and it needs to be taken down to the ground floor (elevator), and disposed of. The owner will let you into the apartment at a fixed time. You are welcome to keep the glass if you have use of it. Its a former cover of a dining room table, undamaged.

Great to deal with, would recommend and use again.

Moving heavy mattress upstairs

$100

Brunswick VIC, Australia

28th May 2025

Need a queen size bed moved upstairs in our home The mattress is quite heavy and the stairs may need some skilled manoeuvring (pics included) Note: I’m not entirely sure how much this would cost, so the listed budget is just a guess! Please feel free to respond, even if your quote is higher :)

Benny is delightful! He was able to safely move a VERY heavy mattress up two flights of stairs in lightning time. He not only came prepared but was very considerate in making sure nothing was damaged and that we were happy with the placement. The cherry on top was his cheerful and friendly attitude- I’ll definitely be reaching out to him first the next time I need a hand moving :)

I'm looking for a strong individual to assist me in lifting a customers boxed entertainment unit up a flight of apartment stairs on Toorak Rd (South Yarra), preferably on Monday 14th April in the morning. This is a long and heavy unit (approx 82 kgs/2.5m long) so will require someone physically strong & fit, ideally with removals or warehouse experience, who is comfortable helping me maneuver such a heavy item up a staircase with a turn halfway up. Box is already onsite and the task should take no more than 20 minutes to complete. On-street parking is available or I can pick you up on the way if you live in the inner suburbs.
