Why removalist prices vary
Two moves in the same suburb can cost very different amounts. A one-bedroom unit on the ground floor is quick. A four-bedroom home with a piano, a steep driveway and a second-floor bedroom takes more people and more time. That is why we quote each move individually, in writing, instead of publishing a single price.
Furniture removal quotes, prices and the average cost of furniture removal
Furniture removal quotes are individual because every move is different. That is why furniture removals prices vary so much, and why a single average cost of furniture removal is not very useful: a small unit and a four-bedroom home are very different jobs. We do not publish a price list. Instead we give you a fixed written quote for your exact move.
The cost of furniture removal: what drives it
The cost of furniture removal depends on the volume you are moving, distance, access, timing and any special items. Prices furniture removals companies quote can look similar but include different things, so compare like for like.
Interstate removalists cost
Interstate removalists cost more the further you go and the larger your load, but a part-load can bring the price down. See our interstate furniture removalists page.
How to compare removalist quotes
Ask each company for a written, fixed quote. Check the crew size, truck size, whether stairs and long carries are included, insurance cover, payment terms and cancellation rules. Be wary of quotes that are far lower than the rest, or that quote hourly without a cap or estimate.
How to save on your furniture removal
Book mid-week, avoid month-end, declutter before the move, disassemble what you can and group items in one place. For interstate, ask about part-loads. Use our cheap removalists and small removals pages for budget options.
