Rebuilds
Knockdown-rebuild moves
Out before demolition, back after handover. Both legs quoted at the start so nothing about the second move is a surprise.
Brighton · VIC 3186
A lot of Brighton moves aren't one-way. Knock down and rebuild, and you move twice — out to a rental and a storage unit, then back into the new house a year or so later. We plan both legs at the start.

What we move
A family home off Church Street, a rebuild near the bay, an apartment in Middle Brighton, or a few pieces to the storage unit. Same crew, same truck, no subcontractors.
Rebuilds
Out before demolition, back after handover. Both legs quoted at the start so nothing about the second move is a surprise.
Large homes
Four and five bedroom houses with a garage, a study and outdoor living. Four movers on request, so a big house is done in a day.
Storage
Into your storage unit before the build, and back out when the new house is ready — loaded so the right boxes come out first.
Heavy & outdoor
Outdoor settings, pool tables, home gym equipment and stone tables. Declared at quote stage so the crew is the right size.
Office
Practices and shops around Church Street and Bay Street, moved outside trading hours.
Packing
Boxes that will sit for a year need packing differently. Ours are covered in transit — customer-packed boxes aren't.
Moving out for a rebuild
A normal move ends when the last box is unpacked. A rebuild move ends a year later, when you open the storage boxes in the new house. How they were packed and labelled on move-out day decides what you find.
Label by destination, not by room. Rental or storage first, room second. It's what the crew reads on the day.
Decide the split before move-out. The rental is usually smaller than the house. Work out what fits before the truck arrives.
Dismantle what's going into storage. It packs tighter, and flat-pack is only covered in transit when disassembled.
Load storage in reverse. What you'll want first in the new house goes into the unit last.

On-time guarantee
5% off if we're late
We book every move inside a 3 hour arrival window. Arrive outside it and 5% comes off your invoice automatically — you don't have to ask.
Review credit
$10 off per review
Post an honest review after your move and take $10 off. Reviews stack across platforms. Each one needs a photo from moving day.
Rates shown are for local moves with two movers. Extra crew is quoted separately. A rebuild is two separate bookings, each at the rate for its own day — the move back can be a weekday even if the move out wasn't.
