Cheap shouldn’t mean risky. Here’s how we keep your move affordable and still done properly.
Clear written quotes
You get an honest written price up front, with no surprises on the day.
Backloading
Flexible on dates? Share truck space already heading your way and only pay for the room you use. See backloading.
Right-sized crew & truck
We match the crew and truck to your move so you’re not paying for more than you need.
Flexible dates
Mid-week and off-peak dates can be easier to book. Tell us if your timing is flexible.
Just a few items? A small move or 2 men and a truck may cost less.

Ways to keep your move cheaper
A few simple choices can bring the cost down.
Be flexible on dates
Mid-week and off-peak moves are easier to schedule than peak weekend slots.
Consider backloading
On longer or interstate moves, sharing truck space is the biggest saving.
Pack yourself
Do your own packing, or just the easy rooms, and we’ll handle the heavy lifting.

Get a quoteAre you actually cheap, or just claiming it?
Our rates are published: $130 per hour for a 4.5 tonne truck, $150 for an 8.5 tonne, $170 for a 10 tonne and $180 for a 12 tonne. We keep moves affordable through honest quoting, right-sized crews, flexible dates and backloading, not by cutting corners.
Will a cheaper move still be careful?
Yes. Every move includes careful wrapping and handling. Affordable never means we skip the care.
How can I make my move cost less?
Be flexible on dates, consider backloading on longer moves, and do some of your own packing. All of these bring the price down. We’ll suggest the best options when we quote.
Do you charge hidden fees?
No. We give a clear written quote up front. Tell us the details and what you see is what you pay.
Is a small move cheaper?
Often, yes. For a few items, a small move or a 2-men-and-a-truck booking on our 4.5 tonne truck can be the most affordable option.
