How Much Do Melbourne CBD Removals Cost?
CBD moves are usually charged by the hour, at about $140 to $220 an hour for a truck and two or three movers. Apartment moves can take a little longer than suburban houses because of lifts and loading docks.
| Home Size | Crew Size | Estimated Time | Truck Capacity | Hourly Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1–2 Bedroom Unit | 2 movers | 2 to 3 hours | 4.5 ton | $120 per hour |
| 2–3 Bedroom Home | 2 movers | 3 to 5 hours | 6 ton | $135 per hour |
| 3–4 Bedroom House | 2 movers | 4 to 8 hours | 8 ton | $145 per hour |
| 4–5 Bedroom House | 2 to 3 movers | 7 to 10 hours | 10 ton | $160 per hour |
| 5–6 Bedroom House | 2 to 4 movers | 8 to 11 hours | 12 ton | $180 per hour |
To keep costs down, book the lift for the full move, have boxes packed and near the door, and choose a weekday if your building allows it.
