House and apartment removals

Residential removalists in Melbourne

Careful moving support for houses, apartments, townhouses, storage units and everything in between.

Quick answer

What this service includes

NextWave Movers handles Melbourne house, apartment and townhouse moves with GST-inclusive hourly packages from $165 per hour. We match the crew and truck to the inventory and plan stairs, lifts, parking and long carries before moving day.

House removals in Melbourne

A house move should include every room, garage, shed and outdoor area in the inventory. Larger family moves may suit an 8T or 10T truck with three movers, while the final recommendation depends on access and whether another load would be practical.

Apartment removals in Melbourne

Apartment moves are planned around lift bookings, loading bays, floor level, corridors and building time windows. Sharing those rules early helps us choose a suitable truck and estimate the repeated carry time more realistically.

What we can plan

A clear scope before moving day.

Every quote starts with the route, timing, access and what needs moving. That information helps us assess vehicle space, equipment and labour without pretending two different moves are the same.

  • House, apartment and townhouse moves
  • Furniture protection with moving blankets and straps
  • Assembly and disassembly where agreed
  • Lift, stair, parking and loading-zone planning
  • Single-item moves through to full household relocations
  • Melbourne metro and regional Victoria moves

Common questions

Home & apartment moves FAQs

Direct answers to the details customers usually need before requesting a quote.

01

How much does a Melbourne house or apartment move cost?

Standard local packages start at $165 per hour including GST for two movers and a 4.5T extended-body truck, with a two-hour minimum. The total depends on the inventory, access and travel between addresses.

02

Do you charge a call-out or stair fee?

For standard hourly Melbourne moves there is no separate call-out charge because time starts when work begins at pickup. Stairs do not change the selected hourly package rate, but they can increase the time required.

03

What should I send for an apartment quote?

Send both addresses, the floor level, lift and loading-bay rules, parking details, an inventory and photos of difficult access or bulky items.
