    I called Doug’s Mini Mover on Thursday morning at 9.30. It was all a rush. My mum was being discharged from hospital to an aged care facility in Kew and I didn't have much notice. I wanted to make sure her recliner armchair was in place in her room at Kew, for her comfort and for safety. Paul was able to arrange pickup at 11 am. Dean and Alex coped with the stairs in getting the armchair out of the house and when they arrived at Kew staff praised their attention to detail in placing the armchair and connecting the electrics and battery. Their work has made a real difference to my. Mum and I was thankful for the timely response.

    Spoke to Paul on the phone two days prior to the move; he was professional and communicated well. On the day of the move, Travis and Adrian were punctual and were quick and efficient with our two heavy/bulky items. Thank you for the smooth move! Would recommend 😊

    We had two pieces of newly bought furniture delivered yesterday. When we saw it was Doug's Mini Movers delivering our furniture, we were immediately relieved , as having used Doug's ourselves a number of times in the past, we knew our new furniture was truly in the best of hands. Delivery was on time and more importantly, our items were handled with true care and professionalism. Wouldn't consider any other mover.

Frequently asked questions

How much do removalists typically charge?
Removalist costs vary widely depending on job type, distance, crew hours, packing services and access complexity. Quotes commonly combine a call-out or minimum charge with hourly crew rates, plus materials and any travel or after-hours premiums. This page shows live pricing to help you compare options for your specific move.
Do removalists charge call-out fees?
Yes — many removalists charge a call-out or minimum attendance fee that is listed separately from labour and materials. After-hours or weekend work is often charged at a higher rate, sometimes as a multiplier of the standard hourly rate. Always confirm whether a quote includes travel or minimum charges.
What qualifications should I look for in a removalist?
Removalists aren't government-licenced, so look for industry credentials and verifiable business registration such as AFRA or MSAA affiliation and an active ABN. AFRA accreditation is voluntary but often indicates audited equipment, staff training and insurance standards; also check for public liability, carriers' liability and goods-in-transit cover.
