Move heavy furniture around house and garage
$250
Griffith ACT, Australia
22nd Feb 2026
We’ve just finished unpacking after a move and need a few heavy items moved around inside our house and from the house to garage. Specifically we need 2 people to: * Move a heavy round marble coffee table to TV area (down 4 steps) * Move a heavy wooden coffee table to garage (no steps) * Move 3 single beds (bases and mattresses) from house to garage (down 5 steps) * Lift and reposition large 8-seater wooden dining table so we can place a rug underneath * Move 3 heavy rolled rugs to garage (no steps)
 Everything is on one level. No stairs. You’ll need two strong people. 
Standalone house, parking in driveway. 

Please bring your own equipment (trolleys, lifting straps etc.) and take care to protect floors and furniture.
 Ideally looking for this to be done today or tomorrow afternoon, but later in the week is OK too.
Lupe and her team are the best Airtaskers I’ve ever worked with, and I’ve worked with a lot! Incredibly competent, amazing communication, kind and professional. After moving a ton of single beds we realised the one left behind didn’t fit in the space so Lupe then moved it back from the garage into the house. And even fixed a broken towel rail while they were here! Thank you so much.
