Moving around Adelaide

Every part of Adelaide moves a little differently

We plan each move around the access at both ends, so there are no surprises on the day.

Adelaide Hills

Steep and narrow driveways, low branches and tight turning areas. We check whether a truck can safely get up the driveway and size the vehicle to suit.

City and inner suburbs

Apartments, lifts, stair carries, loading zones and street parking. We time the move around traffic and book lifts with building managers where needed.

North, south, east and west

Family homes, unit blocks and newer estates. Wider streets usually suit a bigger truck, while older suburbs can need a smaller one.

Regional and country SA

Longer drives need more planning, a larger truck and sometimes more than two movers. We confirm access before the day.

Interstate removals

Moving interstate from Adelaide

Door-to-door moves to Australia’s major cities, planned by an Adelaide-based team. Choose a dedicated truck, or backload to save on smaller moves.

Planning an interstate move

  • We confirm access at both ends, including apartment lifts and parking at the destination.
  • Furniture is blanket-wrapped and strapped for the long drive.
  • You get pickup and delivery windows in writing before you book.

Backloading: pay for the space you use

Your items share a truck that’s already making the trip, so smaller interstate moves cost less.

  • Good for 1–2 bedroom moves and single items
  • Works best with flexible pickup dates
  • Same wrapping and care as a dedicated move

Pricing

How much do removalists cost in Adelaide?

Our removalists charge by the hour, and the rate depends on the truck. Two moves with the same number of bedrooms can still cost different amounts: a ground-floor house with a wide driveway loads much faster than a third-floor unit with one small lift.

  • Volume: how much furniture and how many boxes, which sets the truck size.
  • Crew: two movers for most jobs, three for big homes or difficult access.
  • Access: stairs, lifts, long carries and steep driveways at both homes.
  • Distance: the drive between your two addresses.

How much do removalists cost in Adelaide?

Our hourly rates are $130 for a 4.5 tonne truck, $150 for an 8.5 tonne, $170 for a 10 tonne and $180 for a 12 tonne. The total depends on how long the job takes, which comes down to how much you’re moving and the access at both homes. We send a written quote before you book.

How many movers do I need?

Two movers suit most unit and house moves. We suggest a third mover for larger homes, long carries or several flights of stairs, because it usually shortens the job.

How far ahead should I book my move?

One to two weeks is usually enough for local moves. Book earlier for end-of-month dates, weekends and interstate moves, as these fill up first.

Do you move interstate from Adelaide?

Yes. We move homes and offices from Adelaide to Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast, with a dedicated truck or as a backload.

Is backloading a good option for a small interstate move?

Often, yes. Your items share a truck already heading your way, so you pay for the space you use. It suits smaller loads and flexible dates.

Do you move apartments in the Adelaide CBD?

Yes. We plan around lift bookings, loading zones and street parking, and time the move to avoid peak traffic where we can.

Can you supply boxes and pack for us?

Yes. We can supply boxes and pack some or all of your home, including careful wrapping of fragile items.

Do you take apart beds and tables?

Yes. Our crew can dismantle and reassemble beds, tables and desks on request. Let us know when you book so we bring the right tools.

What should I pack before the movers arrive?

Pack loose items into sealed boxes, empty drawers of anything fragile, and defrost the fridge the day before. We wrap and protect the furniture on the day.
