How your quote works
Tell us the move
What you are moving, the property at each end, and your dates. The more detail, the more accurate the quote.
We read the access
The driveway, the sandy lane, the cliff drive or the acreage gate, plus the haul to or from Melbourne, all set the crew and the time.

| Crew | Standard | Online quote | Typically suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 movers + truck | $250/hr | $200/hr | Studios, apartments and smaller moves |

Rates are a guide for planning. Your quote confirms the exact price for your move, including anything specific to your home.
What affects the price
- Crew and trucks. More movers and a second truck cost more per hour but finish sooner. For a big move that often works out cheaper overall.
- How long it takes. Billing runs from arrival to finish, so anything that slows the day (stairs, long carries, a tight street) adds time.
- Access at both ends. A flat township kerb, a steep Portsea cliff drive, a sandy tea-tree lane near the tip or an acreage gate behind Dromana all change the crew, the truck and whether a shuttle vehicle is needed for the last leg.
- Distance. A local Mornington Peninsula move is mostly load-and-unload time; the long haul up or down Peninsula Link to Melbourne, or an interstate run, adds travel, where a backload can keep the price down if your dates are flexible.
- Packing. We can pack and unpack for you, or you can have everything boxed and ready to keep the hours down.

Pricing: common questions
How much does a removalist cost in the Mornington Peninsula?
Our online-quote rates start at $200/hour for two movers and a truck, $250/hour for three, and $400/hour for a four-mover, two-truck crew. Moves are billed by the hour from arrival to finish, and you get a clear estimate up front based on your specific move.
How is the price calculated?
It’s the hourly rate for your crew size multiplied by the time the move takes, plus any travel for longer runs. The size of your home sets the crew; the access at both ends sets the time. We quote the estimate before you book so there are no surprises.
Is there a minimum charge or a call-out fee?
We’ll confirm any minimum on your quote rather than springing fees on the day. Honesty up front is the point. Tell us about your move and the quote spells out exactly what’s included.
How can I get a cheaper move?
Get your quote online for our online rate (lower than our standard rate), move mid-week or mid-month if you can, have everything packed and ready before the crew arrives, and clear the access (bins moved, gates unlocked, lift booked). Every minute saved is money saved on an hourly move.
Will the final price match the quote?
The quote is an accurate estimate based on what you tell us, and the hourly billing reflects the actual time on the day. If something changes the job (more to move than expected, access we weren’t told about), we’ll flag it rather than quietly run the clock.
