I need help moving a heavy dresser with drawers from inside the house to the garage. There are 3 steps that need to be navigated on the way, and the dresser is quite solid , it may require two people to move it safely. The distance is short (from the main door to the garage), but I want someone who is experienced with moving heavy furniture and can handle it with care.

He was fantastic. He arrived on time, was super friendly, and handled the heavy dresser with no trouble at all. He moved it carefully down the steps and placed it exactly where I needed in the garage. Very helpful and professional, highly recommend

Move a VW "shell only" (a 2 person lift ) - Croydon to South Melbourne

$300

Croydon South VIC, Australia

30th Oct 2025

Hi all! I need someone with a large car-sized flat trailer to help me move a 1970 VW Beetle "shell only" (not the chassis!! just the shell -- So it's nice a light; a 2 person lift only) from Croydon South in VIC to South Melbourne in VIC. You will also have help lifting it at both ends - but I need you to quote with 2 people to come to help please - so that we have enough people to make it an easy lift. How long will this take? The lift will take 5-10 mins only. The drive will take around an hour. So this is a job that will take less than 2 hours. If it takes longer, I will agree to pay more than your quote, proportionate to the quote (for example if it takes 3 hours to load, drive and unoad, I will agree to increase the fee by 150%). What vehicle do you need? A flat trailer that is at least 1600mm wide and 4200mm long. The shell is 4060mm L x 1550mm W x 1500mm H. When does this need to be done? Between 9am and 5pm any day over the next few days

Awesome to work with. Would do again in a flash.
