Love these guys. Used them twice now. Quick, safe, reliable and friendly. Good price too. If I move again I'm sticking with them. Nick Taylor

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. Michelle Gnocchi

Had a fantastic experience with Hire a Mover. João and Felipe were friendly, efficient, and took great care with everything. Rubens was super organised and made the whole process smooth from the start. Easily the best move I’ve had—highly recommend. Eric Lowenstein

I was replacing the flooring in my apartment and I needed my furniture moved and stacked within the apartment. Once to clear the living areas for floor replacement, one to clear the bedrooms and once to move all the furniture back into place when the flooring was complete. The guys from Hire A Mover were thoroughly professional and very careful about moving, stacking and replacing my furniture. I highly recommend their services. Warren Don

Chris at the Hire-A-Mover team have just left my house and the team were exceptional, super friendly, very efficient, and asked questions to make sure I was happy with the service. They finished ahead of schedule and I am a very happy customer! Mark Rowland

Outstanding service, professionalism and punctuality. Chris and his team wrapped, carried and stored most of our furniture prior to major repair work. They returned, on time 2 months later and carefully replaced our furniture, unwrapped it and took away all the packing. The team was courteous, practical, reliable and responsible. There was no damage and no fuss about any aspect of dealing with Hire a Mover. Highly recommend! Diane Carter

Andres and Julian have been extremely helpful with the removals and transportation of equipment. Definitely recommend and will use their services again Dogukan Kayhan

Can’t recommend this company enough! We moved from a small granny flat in Oran Park to a large double storey in the same suburb and had Joas and Andres (hope I spelt your names right!). They were swift, professional and friendly. It was a 35 degree day and they just got on with it. Managed to pack up our whole house and move us to a new larger home in 3 hours flat. I can’t say enough positive things about these guys. Again, they were fast but not rushing, they secured all our furniture and boxes and did not complain… Shairalie Boyd

A big shout-out to Andres Felipe Munar Lancheros, Igor Bohry, and Joao Vitor Andre Lopes! This was our first time using a removalist company for our move from Sydney to Newcastle, and these guys were fantastic. They arrived ahead of schedule, explained the process clearly, and handled all our items with great care. They helped with packing and dismantling items as needed, and upon arriving at our new home, they ensured everything was moved into place perfectly. They even assisted with rearranging a few items as required. Overall, it was a smooth and hassle-free experience, and I’d gladly recommend them! Aaron Spiteri

Jonathan and Julian are my mover today. They both are so great even let me in to their truck. Chatting and teamwork as well is really good with both of them. I hope everyone have a great day and I was so happy with the service. I would totally share it with my friends since it also saves up time, and worth every penny. Thank you!!! Ray Gunawan

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have a cancellation policy?

Bookings may be cancelled or re-scheduled more than 24 hours before their start time without penalty. Bookings cancelled within 24 hours of the start time are not eligible for a refund or re-schedule and will incur the full fee.

Do you supply boxes and packing materials?

Our packers do not bring boxes or packing materials. These need to be supplied to them by you. Should you require this, we can provide all necessary equipment. We have different packages for different-sized homes, and all packages are discounted by 10% when purchased in conjunction with our packing services.

Our packages include appropriate quantities of boxes and packing materials for homes of all different sizes.

Boxes and packing materials are delivered Monday – Saturday. To check delivery availability times, click here.

Who are the packers?

Our packers are well-trained mature ladies that are experienced in packing and unpacking homes. They are friendly, polite, and professional; and all have passed police checks.

Is there a minimum booking?

We have a minimum booking package of 2 packers for 4 hours. This can be used for either a pack or unpack and costs $480.

How long should i book

Every property is different and therefore have different packing and unpacking time requirements. However, as a rule of thumb:

2 packers can pack / unpack 32-40 boxes in 4 hours (a typical kitchen plus 1-2 other rooms)
3 packers can pack / unpack 60-75 boxes in 5 hours (a typical kitchen plus 3-4 other rooms)
4 packers can pack / unpack 96-120 boxes in 6 hours (a typical kitchen plus 5-6 other rooms)

Can I add extra time?

Yes. You’re able to add additional packing time above our minimum package of 2 packers for 4 hours. Additional time may be purchased in increments of 15 minutes, and will be charged at $60 (incl. GST) per packer per hour.

Additional time may be pre-purchased or requested on the date of the pack/unpack (subject to the packers’ availability). We recommend pre-booking if possible to avoid disappointment.

When should I schedule my pre-move pack or post-move unpack?

We recommend scheduling your pre-move pack for 1-2 days (for regular homes) and 2-3 days (for large homes) before your moving date. We recommend scheduling your post-move unpack for the day after your move.

These timeframes ensure you’re able to utilise extra assistance if required, and that your move is completed without obstruction.

Do I need to be home?

It’s strongly advised that someone be home for the arrival of the packers. Our experienced packers are more than able to get the job done independently, however, you or a nominated person should be available via phone in the event that there are any questions.
