One of the most commonly asked questions when it comes to moving homes in Melbourne, is how much do furniture movers charge? The amount you can expect to pay for your professional removal will depend on the following main factors; location and access of your property and new destination, complexity of your furniture and goods, special requirements, scheduled moving date and removalist company expertise. In Melbourne, every home and apartment is beautifully unique. For removalists, some properties lend themselves better to straightforward removals, whereas others present challenges such as stair cases, uneven access entrances, narrow driveways, high density traffic areas or one-way streets. It is best to discuss the accessibility to each property with your chosen removalist in advance, to ensure the quote allows for difficulties. The actual location will affect the cost of moving, as most companies charge hourly rates from depot to depot. It is always best to hire a local Melbourne removalist to reduce the total driving distance.
For removalists in Melbourne, your furniture and goods ‘inventory’ will determine how many men are required, and what size truck will be necessary. Of course, moving someone out of a one-bedroom apartment will cost much less than moving a large family out of a double storey home. Making a list of your large furniture items and noting down the number of cupboards which need to be emptied and packed, will be valuable information to share with your movers. Online quote forms often ask for these details as well, to assist with a precise quote. Many homes include items which require special care during transportation. These include; antique furniture pieces, aquariums, extra vehicles or boats, precious artwork, storage requirements and more. Some Melbourne removalist companies offer additional services which can be factored into your moving charges. Prior to booking a removalist in Melbourne, you should confirm that they can provide you with an end-to-end service for your furniture and goods. Movers generally charge between $130 - $170 per hour for two removalists, a truck and all required moving equipment, from depot to depot. If you are looking to move on a weekend, costs may increase, as demand for weekend moves is much higher. For a standard 4 hour moving job, on a weekday you are looking at an approximate spend of $600. Of course, every job is unique and should be quoted as such. To set yourself up for the smoothest Melbourne move possible, you should hire the help of AFRA associated removalists. Their costs may be slightly higher, but their professionalism, advice and experience is priceless. You will start your new chapter with a positive feeling if you invest in an expert moving experience. Call (03) 9763 0222.
