I’ve just recently moved from my unit to a house. After 25 moves ( I was in the Army) this was the smoothest most professional job I’ve ever had. We also hired the packing services for our kitchen/dining room & the ladies were fast, fastidious & ensured nothing was broken at the other end. The…
Booking was simple, Chris, Chris and the entire removal team were super efficient and professional on the day. Nothing was too hard. They disassembled and reassemble everything with precision. They moved some incredibly heavy items with finesse. A pleasure to deal with.
Highly recommend. Entire process for my recent move was a breeze, from the admin staff to the packers themselves. This was all handled expertly and at very short notice, as I was only in town for a limited time to pack up. They even arranged some boxes for me, even though that isn't a standard…
I highly recommend hire a mover!!!! Yesterday we started moving at 12:00, two men were very strong and efficient, pushing six 104 liter boxes at a time on a trolley. And they have very good protection to every inventory, TV and mattress and all wrapped with bubble wrap, cling film and blankets layer by layer…
Felipe and Daniel were excellent help. My partner had previously used this company and she recommended them for my move. I was very happy with the work they did. All was moved safely and efficiently. They even helped organise the storage unit :)
We used the Brisbane service and the boys were so efficient and friendly and strong! They can life an eggchair by one person, and they know what they are doing. No hidden fees, no bullshitting or messing around, efficiently loaded all our stuff faster than we expected! Also the manager Rueben in Brisbane is super…

My second time using Hire a Mover and I would totally recommend them to anyone, personal or business. Fabulous customer service and reasonable prices. I also love the environmentally conscious approach. Most importantly, my belongings were moved safely and efficiently and I was less stressed by the process !!
This is my third time using Proficient Removals/Hire A Mover, and every time it's 5 star service. Booking with Rubens was easy, and Felipe and Guilherme on the day were fantastic. Moving day was scheduled to be 95% rain, but nothing was an issue for the guys. They worked quickly to get the furniture moved…
Brilliant. We undertook a large renovation on our house and it involved both internal and external painting. The painting is absolutely faultless and has completely transformed the house. Anthony provided invaluable advice when required and he and Jason were thoroughly professional, knowledgeable and just a pleasure to deal with. They always cleaned up at the…
Just moved places from Croydon to Marrickville in record time. Started at 8am, and all done by 12pm. These guys are unreal. Diego and Gui (I’m sorry if I misspelt your name!) were awesome, professional, and great to have a chat with. Would highly recommend.
Love these guys. Used them twice now. Quick, safe, reliable and friendly. Good price too. If I move again I'm sticking with them.
I was extremely happy with my dealings with Hire a Mover. Excellent communication and the delightful young men from Brazil (forgot names) were brilliant. They were professional, friendly and so helpful. I would definitely recommend this company.
Thank you Joan V, Joan P and Marlon for making our move today so easy. On time, professional, efficient, careful and value for money. We could do ask any more! We highly recommend Hire a Mover! Thank you ☺️
