Backloading Melbourne to Canberra

- Removalist Service

I under estimated how much stuff I really had, this posed a problem, but [name removed] from The Company sorted it all out, we originally thought we had 45 square metres, so ordered the appropriate truck, it soon became apparent that we at least needed the 65 square metre truck, in the end we had 105 square metres in both storage units and items to move, maths is not my strong point, so others take note.

It was a huge strain on us as we were moving over 200 kilometres from Sydney, The Company gave me a great rate for 3 movers and trucks, a big thanks to [name removed] for his patience and doing his best for the customer.

All moves are fraught with calamities, I have never moved yet without one, the biggest issue was the amount of boxes we had, the stuff and furniture, would it all fit and where, on the excellent advice of [name removed] we arranged for a larger storage unit and then we needed another, with more time we would have rationalised more, but time was against us.

The calamities were many, one of my prized Koi carp died of heart failure, one of the young movers [name removed] twisted his ankle and collided with my exercise bike, causing some minor damage, (more excuse not to use it), then the folowing day we had a replacement for [name removed] and [names removed] came on board, [name removed] is such a friendly and happy go lucky fellow, he sufferred no injury, poor [name removed] on the other hand got bitten by one our prize wasps and it knocked him out for a while, one of these wasps tried it on me also, so we got rid of that issue and got on with the job.

With any moving firm, if you have a lot of stuff and you have poor access, pay for three men otherwise you will need to pitch in, one mover needs to be the packing specialist in the truck, this is no excuse, its fact, [name removed] was this fellow and his ability to fit things in holes which you would not think would fit was amazing, the trucks were all full to the brim, top to botom, no room to move, which is good, there was no damage in transit we could find and all valuable and fragile items were bubble wrapped and fully insured, don't skimp it isn't worth it. [name removed], said he would give me a good price on wrapping, I said give me a bad price, this will fit in with all the other issues, we all had a good laugh. A sense of humour when you move is very important and all the guys were great in this regard, [name removed] and I built up quite a good rapport as I showed him respect, he was in charge of this logistical operation and deserves respect for his ability.

I had a 55 and a 21 square metre truck on the first day and a 55 metre truck on the second and they were always full and we still have 3 trailer loads to go which we will try and move over the coming months as we donate and rationalise, remember do this first, don't pay for excess stuff, I probably wasted a good $1000 to transport items I will eventually donate, but this was a personal choice as some of it I have inherited and part of that is to donate the items to a certain group.

I only have compliments for [name removed] and his team, once again, to have a successful move, you need a [name removed], he was never bludging, he was co-ordinating the pack, this is an artform and how well it is done, determines how many trucks you will need and the effort you will need toput in, I have had movers before who never used the entire internal capacity of the truck, when there is free space, you will get damage, tight packing is the best and safest way to transport a load.

I'd use The Company again, the only compaint is I had too much stuff and I paid for it, the two moves and all the gear cost just under $5000, this hurts, but essentuially you are hiring a truck, paying wages of 3 men and Diesel at $150 per litre for two days over 800 kilometres, that is not a cheap exercise and other movers quoted me double this price. Most will supply a 45 metre square truck and two men for around the $2300 mark, note what we had.

Thanks to The Company

Staff were very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Dealt with all matters with a professional attitude and reassured me that I was getting the best service. There actions showed just how good they were.

The Company did an amazing job recently moving my house. What I thought would be a stressful expensive exercise turned out to be inexpensive and stress free. I am very grateful to the guys who worked hard, were polite and friendly and the whole process was quick and easy.

Thanks guys for making the worst thing ever (moving) easy. These boys worked as a trojan today they finished the job in 6 hours which is a record for me, cause i tried two other removals and both took 9 hours to do the job and wasn't the same quality. The Company is highly recommend if you try them i think you won't be regret cause they honest, reliable, came on time. And again thanks guys.

I was very impressed with The Company. This is the first time I have used a removals and if I ever have to use one again I will look no further than this company. The 2 men arrived on time were very friendly very respectful of both myself and my furniture.They worked very efficiently were very quick whilst at the same time very through and very careful with fragile items. I would recommend The Company to anybody who is having a removal. Even though my removal was small I would certainly recommend them for a larger one. The price was the best quote I got but the service I received was the absolute best. Congratulations Mark on an excellent move.

I'm not going to exaggerate, lets face it, moving sucks... especially if you've decided to pack and unpack yourself. There are a myriad of stress points, and times when it can all just feel like 'too, too much'!

I'm not sure how I managed to find The Company... but I'm so incredibly glad I did!

From beginning of the process I was given a case manager (Adam, in my case - who was spectacularly helpful, funny, and determined to make sure I got everything I wanted and needed... even when that meant making extra calls to couriers, etc. Nothing was too much for him!) who ensured my satisfaction.

Its true we didn't move far - we stayed in the same neighbourhood - but Adam and the amazingly diligent moving team he sent through went over and above the extra mile for me.

I really hope its a long time before I have to move again - but when I do... making the decision on who to call will be... yep:

Removalist arrived on time and introduced themselves and got straight to work. No stopping apart from a revival water intake. Fast and careful. Arrived at new address not long behind us and were even faster unloading. Impressed all round with The Company as our chosen removalist and even more happy with payment after numerous quotes. Cheers and high five to you both Will and Sam.

Moved a 4 bedroom house and the 2 young men that were provided were, on time, fast and efficient. They didn't stop working fro almost 10 hrs and were polite and understanding.

Great Service Removals. Daniel will always call back and is helpful with enquiries. I found him to be transparent and honest. He was clear with insurance obligations and did not promise anything he could not deliver. We had a big move and storage for a month before we moved into our new place. The guys turned up on time at both pick up and delivery and were very professional. The truck was packed to the hilt but there were no breakages. This a good removals company, highly recommended.

We moved an office of 18 staff, and these guys were fantastic. From start to finish, there was great communication and the removal team were sensational...very careful and logical. I would have no hesitation in recommending them for office moves, they are great to deal with. Charlie was a fantastic chap to liaise with, and made the move easy and efficient.

2 guys I had were awesome. Funny and very quick. They did what they promised. As soon as they got there they said not a problem and got stuck into. I will be using this company again.they were also a lot less expensive compared to other companies. Thank you guys for your help today.

I organised with The Company to move my daughter's furniture & belongings from Brisbane to Parramatta. Everything went smoothly and according to plan & Michael and Sam had the van loaded in next to no time and handled the goods as if they were their own. Will certainly use again!
