What affects the price
- Number of removalists and truck size booked for the job.
- Distance of the move - a local move costs far less than an interstate or long-distance one.
- Access at both ends - stairs, narrow streets, or limited parking can add time.
- Volume of items being moved, including any bulky or fragile pieces.
- Whether packing and unpacking services are included or booked separately.
Frequently asked questions
Is packing included in the hourly rate?
Loading, transport, and unloading are usually included in the hourly rate, but full packing and unpacking services are often booked and charged separately - confirm what's included when you get a quote.
What else might cost extra beyond the hourly rate?
Fuel surcharges, tolls, and difficult access (stairs, long carry distances, narrow streets) aren't always included in the base hourly rate, so it's worth asking upfront.
How far in advance should I book removalists in Perth?
Booking a few weeks ahead is generally a good idea, especially around weekends and end-of-month, which tend to be the busiest times for removalists.
