Removalists Ivanhoe
Movers in Ivanhoe Who Know Its Character Homes
Ivanhoe’s streets are lined with Californian bungalows, Edwardian homes and Art Deco houses, many with modern extensions at the back. That mix of old and new shapes how we work.
- Bungalows with deep verandahs: Wide front steps and verandahs often mean a longer carry to the truck. We plan the route and use trolleys to keep things moving.
- Renovated period homes: Original front rooms often lead to large open-plan extensions. We protect polished floors and new finishes with covers and padding.
- Heavy timber furniture: Solid dining tables, dressers and bookcases are common. We bring enough movers and equipment to lift them safely.
Getting Around Ivanhoe on Moving Day
- Upper Heidelberg Road: The village shopping strip is busy most days, so we plan parking and loading carefully nearby.
- Riverside homes: Properties near The Boulevard and Darebin Creek often sit on sloping blocks with longer driveways. We check truck access before the day.
- School traffic: Several large schools bring heavy traffic in the mornings and afternoons. We schedule around drop-off and pick-up times where possible.
- Train line crossings: Streets near the Hurstbridge line can bank up at peak times, so we time travel to save you paid hours.
How Much Do Removalists in Ivanhoe Cost?
Local moves in Ivanhoe are usually charged by the hour for the crew and truck. We charge around $120 to $160 an hour for two movers and a truck. A standard three-bedroom house move often comes to roughly $1,100 to $1,200, while larger renovated homes may take longer.
What affects the price:
- How much furniture and how many boxes you have
- Steps, driveway slope and how close the truck can park
- Distance between your old and new address
- Traffic near the shopping strip and schools
- Optional packing or storage
- You’ll get a written quote before booking, so the cost is clear from the start.
