TLDR; Would highly recommend and will definitely use again next move! Do yourself a favour and just use these guys. We moved during the floods which cut off the North Richmond bridge and was a difficult time for everyone. Dawson's were very responsive, understanding and clear in their communications which went a long way removing the stress and putting our minds at ease. Mieke from Dawsons kept us updated throughout so it was one less thing to worry about with every other moving-related task proving difficult to arrange. The guys themselves turned up right on time and nothing was too much to ask. They were very careful with our valuable/sentimental items, and helped pack and move our more difficult items such as out plants w/o fuss. Everything was wrapped in plastic, w/ additional boxes/paper offered freely as required. Cartons for TVs etc were also offered and I believe they provide boxes freely as part of the move although we didn't require these. They were clearly very experienced, handling other difficult items like glass-doored cabinets, and collapsible tables with care and refrained from taping wooden furniture as others have done (ruining the varnish!). We had somewhat tricky access both sides an they were very conscious of the truck and any potential damage to driveways from scraping etc - again demonstrating the care, experience and professionalism. Guys were friendly, but focused on getting the job done. They themselves even spoke glowingly of Dawson's and the pride and service-driven culture they promote and demand from their team. All round great experience!

We were so impressed with your boys John & Phoenix! They moved like nothing we have ever seen before, were professional and courteous throughout the whole day and could not have done today without them! Thank you for assigning your best to us!

Dawsons are awesome- there really is no better way to describe them & the amazing service they provide. Dawsons moved us from the Central Coast to Blue Mountains in NSW. Mieke supported us through the whole process from quote to load checking & ensuring we were called prior to pick up & again for delivery. The whole team were very professional, respectful & super efficient & could not be more helpful. Love supporting a local family business, highly recommend.

We have recently moved from NSW to SA with Dawson Moving & Storage, we have made a few changes on the load, but they accommodated all the changes, the service was excellent. Our furniture and boxed were delivered in the same condition and in timely manner. I would highly recommend this company.

Andrew Collier
I think I've moved with Dawson Moving & Storage some 8 times now, being over the past 10 years, including removing from old house, and relocating to new house. Every moving event has been made simpler for me by Dawson. Highly professional, and extremely careful movers. I have also used Dawson for long-time off-site storage, which was very well done, and very economical. I will always go with Dawson. Try them, and you'll find out why. You can't beat well priced and professional movers. Andy:)

Dawson Moving & Storage did a great job on my recent relocation, including a prompt and detailed quote, efficient and careful pickup, storage for a couple of months, redelivery, and collection of the empty boxes. Everyone was on time, friendly, and very well organised. Having Mieke as a point of contact throughout made things much easier from my perspective and was much appreciated. Communication was easy and everything was well explained.
Pilar Smith
From start to finish great, friendly professional service. Mieke make the whole daunting experience of moving across country from Syd to Perth easy. She was so kind & helpful & replied to my many questions straight away. Everything arrived on time & in great condition. Very competive prices too! Highly recommended.

We used Dawson Moving and Storage this month to move Mum from the family home to an apartment in eastern suburbs of Sydney. Attention to detail and good service were our top priorities and from the start Dawson Moving and Storage were head and shoulders above their competitors. Mieke was very helpful and totally professional in helping me set things up over the phone. On move day the boys were prompt, friendly, fast and efficient. The packers/unpackers from Finishing Touch were worth their weight in gold. It was a delight to work with Dawson Moving and Storage and I highly recommend them.
David Collins-White
Dawson Moving & Storage did a good job with our removals and delivery to 3 different sites. Communication was excellent, arrived on time and workers friendly and efficient. Highly recommend them.
Nick Svarens
Highly recommended, the team (Adam, Brad, Jayden and Mieke) did an outstanding job with our house move. They were on time, polite, conducted themselves in a professional manner and worked together as a team to ensure our move was smooth and successful. High praise for the company and staff that make Dawson an easy choice for your next move. Thank you again.

Mieke and the boys from Dawson Moving and storage were wonderful ! Packed up my house in North Richmond so quickly and without and drama.. made sure everything was wrapped and boxed better than I did to make sure nothing got damaged! The storage was cost effective.. especially as it turned into 15 months not 4 weeks. Come the day to deliver to my new home they fitted in with me on short notice, arrived and took control, again quick and without complaint on what turned out to be a very hot day. Such a great company to work with, the care through the whole experience was greatly appreciated. Very happy to recommend Dawsons to everyone needing that bit extra in removing, storage and delivery.
Janice Kehlet
Dawson Removals are awesome. Mieke was responsive, accommodating and very mindful of how much effort is involved in a move. The guys arrived on time and were so efficient. They were professional, careful and polite. They didnt break or damage anything and we didnt lose anything either. Can highly recommend Dawsons. You wont be disappointed.
Kylie Brett

Gary Aschmoneit
The guys who moved us were professional, polite and made the move experience from the city to the country just all the better.
Eddie Patterson
I would like to thank Darren in his response was at my house next day after calling him. I was kept up to date on pick up , Trevor was there promptly and made us feel at ease given we were stressed, I thought we were ready but no not even close. Trevor made boxes up as we needed them, the other staff arrived an hour later and loaded everything with ease taken care with everything. I highly recommend using this company. Eddie Valley Heights
Carolyn Polizzotto
Outstanding service at every level. From the time I first contacted Dawsons, I was dealing at once - and throughout - with the administrative person most expert in my requirements. A special shoutout to Mieke who co-ordinated the whole operation! She is a logistics genius. Not one single item of information ever had to be repeated by me. Response to any query was instantaneous. Delivery was accomplished by at least four (and I think more) removalists, who were kind and helpful as well as being experts in their field. An altogether fantastic experience. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Dawsons to anyone facing a move. They made it all seem easy. Everything went like clockwork with minimum disruption. Not bad for a move from Perth to Canberra - after living in our old house for 43 years!

Highly recommend! Could not have moved without these legends!
Tatum
We had an AMAZING experience with the guys at Dawson! From the moment they arrived they were switched on and ready to go! The communication when the guys arrived at the other end was very impressive. We communicated where everything had to go and it was moved in ready to go. Even the kids bedrooms had all the correct items in each. Their eye for detail was great, not just assuming how we wanted things done but asking us about the finer details.

We had such a great experience with the whole team at Dawson Moving & Storage. Throughout the whole process of our residential move, the team were efficient, accommodating and professional! Cannot recommend enough
Nathan & Joel Pacchiarotta
The Team at Dawsons in St Marys are fantastic! We had a seamless process from Mieke coming out to quote our removal, the team loading and unloading our home - everything was easy! The guys took great care with all our belongings and furniture when packing and unpacking. We couldnt be happier using this team and look forward to recommending them in the future. Thank you all!
Alan Hicks
The whole Dawson team were excellent. Mieke started the process and we felt extremely comfortable with our initial discussions. The warehouse team were helpful and always prepared to help with packaging materials and advice as required. The actual move was made less stressful due to the help and support of John, Sean and Phoenix who made every effort to communicate each step over the move period. We have no hesitation with recommending Dawson to assist during a very stressful period, as they communicate well, are extremely flexible and work with the client to achieve their desired outcomes.

We highly recommend Dawsons to take care of all your needs. At a very stressful time of moving, they were very helpful, friendly and accommodating, and communication was proactive. They also gave us lots of options and worked with us when our move in dates changed due to our build not being ready. They organised all our storage needs at a very reasonable price, took lots of care when packing and moving all our things, and were very clean and tidy. We were is great hands with the whole team from the front office through to the guys who moved us on the day. Just excellent all round. Thanks guys!
Barry Laws
We have now used Dawson's Removal Service twice and their professionalism and attention to detail is absolutely brilliant. The whole process ran seamlessly. A massive thank you to Meike, Luke and Ryan for making our move this week so easy and pain-free. Our apartment was professionally packed in record time and delivered to our new residence the following day. All the while being kept up to date of its progress. Thank you again for taking such great care of all of our belongings. Highly recommend the Dawsons Team.
Slaviero Physiotherapy
Great to work with. Very friendly and very efficient. All our belongings were looked after carefully.
Mike T
A big thank you to Mieke and all the staff who have been involved in our move from the Canberra region to Sydney, including a period of nearly 4mths in storage. Everything was handled in a fast, efficient and friendly manner which made the experience as painless as possible. The move was also achieved with no loss or breakages, a great result! Highly recommended!
Sue Mckay
The Dawson team from the move coordinator, to pick up and delivery team where amazing, friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them.. I would highly recommend Dawsons to anyone looking for an easy and hassle free move..
Louise Post
I highly recommend Dawson Moving & Storage. They have completed multiple removals for us, house to house and even collected windows and doors for a new build. Every time it has been a pleasure to work with their staff. If you are moving, these are the people to call.
Andy Pearce
Absolutely beautiful company to work with. They answered questions I didn't even know to ask and made sure we were looked after at every step. The removalists are careful, kind and quick. The whole experience should have been stressful, but Dawson made it stress-free and enjoyable. If we move again, we are definitely choosing Dawson.
Che Simons
Service and speed from Dawson removals was excellent. The team worked hard to deliver my items quickly and to my liking. They even removed the emptied cartons and packing paper at my convenience. Their office staff were helpful and efficient in the day I called and all staff were courteous and professional. Dawson would have earned five stars if they had provided better contact details on the day of the removal. I also can't comment on value for money as the removal was paid for by my employer. Despite this minor issues I would definitely recommend these guys.
Lisa Doszpot
We had a pretty poor experience with Dawson moving and storage. They started off keen and happy to get the job done but that quickly changed. Our removal was right before Christmas and you could tell they did not want to be at work. Multiple items were damaged, boxes were not correctly unpacks and items were either not re assembled, or the were reassembled poorly causing further damage. The boxes that were unpacked were literally tipped upside down to empty. Our solid pine dining table was cracked, chest of draws completely crumbled and walls chipped just to name a few. We also found the removalists rubbish amongst our belongings.

Cat called by a Dawson branded truck in the main street of Mosman around mid day today. Not a good look and very demeaning.

AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!!!!Dawson removals moved us interstate from Canberra to Perth, most of the removal was average at best until the $10000, one of a kind, revolving glass table that we paid extra to have crated separately was delivered in approximately 1000 pieces, promptly dumped in my garage with glass shards spilling all over the place and the Perth firm just left it there. I contacted Steve, the manager where the table was crated who was apologetic but would take no responsibility. The "crate" was actually two cheap pallets and some plywood nailed together (I paid $400 extra for this "service" which they assured me involved a purpose built crate)which they clearly dropped but, amazingly, their cameras had no footage. Eventually Dawsons stopped responding to my calls and emails so I approached AFRA who they are proud members of, AFRA were no use whatsoever so the claim on their website is irrelevant and offers you the customer no protection whatsoever. I finally had to resort to Consumer Protection to finally get minimal compensation from this truly awful company. I notice the good reviews are mostly one liners and get responses from Dawsons, someone massaging the reviews perhaps? Truly an awful, stressful, expensive and massively disappointing experience. Avoid them if you're moving next door, avoid them if you're moving intercity and definitely avoid them if you are moving interstate. Once you're out of Canberra they couldn't care less. I gave them one star because I couldn't leave zero. Please save yourselves the heartache and disappointment and use one of the other companies who may actually deliver what they claim because these people are absolutely atrocious if anything goes wrong(and I assume it does often). AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!

Movers were nice but the customer service was a disaster. The don't care customers once the moving things are done. The receptionist does not listen to customers and she only talk what she wanted to talk and hang up the phone. The worst part is that she told me she is JUST receptionist, but if I have to say, YOU are the company itself who every customer can only talk to. Really bad customer service ever in my life. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

Used Dawson through Perth Relocations a few months ago and were still working to remove all the sticker and tape residue they lazily slapped all over our furniture. Damaged fridge and drier too.
