South Gippsland Removalist
Removalists in South Gippsland
Urban Movers is a professional, dependable team of removalists in South Gippsland, helping families, farmers, sea-changers and local businesses move in and out of Leongatha (VIC 3953), Korumburra, Foster, Mirboo North and the coastal towns. The shire is run by South Gippsland Shire Council from Leongatha, about 128 km south-east of Melbourne. Our rates start from $120 an hour, and you pay the same price on weekends. With 10 years of experience, we plan moves on hilly country roads, farm tracks and sandy beach streets with care.
Movers in South Gippsland Who Know the Area
- Landslips on hill roads: South Gippsland has had six declared disaster events since 2021, leaving more than 100 landslips across the shire, and some roads have been closed to heavy vehicles. Before your move, we’ll check council and VicRoads closures and plan a route that suits a truck.
- Dairy country and farm moves: Leongatha is a centre of state significance for dairy milk processing and beef, and much of the shire is farmland. For farm moves, we’ll ask about gates, sheds, stock and track conditions so the right truck turns up.
- Coastal towns full of holiday homes: Venus Bay has 1,466 dwellings, but only about 22.5% are lived in permanently because so many are holiday homes. If you’re furnishing or clearing a beach house, we’ll plan around keys, sandy access and the busy summer holidays.
- Spread-out towns: The shire covers about 3,295 square km, and the council describes its settlements as highly dispersed. Moves between towns like Mirboo North, Toora and Port Welshpool take more planning than a city move, so we’ll map out timing with you upfront.
How Much Do Removalists in South Gippsland Cost?
Our rates start from $120 an hour, with no extra charge on Saturdays or Sundays. A move between two South Gippsland towns can be a shorter job. A move from Melbourne also includes the drive, so your written quote shows the travel time clearly.
What affects the price:
- The size of your home and how much you’re moving
- The distance and travel time between your homes
- Steep driveways, farm gates and gravel or sandy tracks
- Stairs, decks or a long carry from the truck to the door
- Packing, boxes or furniture assembly
- Heavy items like pianos, safes, workshop tools or outdoor furniture
- Tell us about your move and we’ll send you a clear written quote before the day.
