Grace services all Melbourne suburbs and surrounding regions. We also have a fully operational moving branch in Wodonga and more than 30 branches across Australia.

We take every precaution to ensure the safety of your belongings. Plus, we offer comprehensive transit protection options, including our Easycover extended warranty.

Grace provides obligation-free fixed price quotes for household moving. We assess the size of your move, the packing requirements and the distance or time to travel and deliver to your new home. Local moves in Melbourne range from $2,000 to $5,000 for a standard 2 bedroom home. Larger homes, interstate and international moves are more expensive, depending on the final destination.

When you move house in Victoria, there’s quite a list of people and organisations you should notify so you don’t miss important mail, bills, or services. Some of these include updating electoral enrolment details with the AEC, Driver’s licence with VicRoads, Services Australia for Medicare or child support services as well as your bank, superannuation fund, insurance company and your employer.

Moving day is often a busy time and generally starts early in the morning. The removal crew will have instructions from the office as to what is going and what is staying. They generally work room by room and start with the larger furniture items, followed by lighter items and moving boxes. The garage or shed is almost always the last zone to be loaded into the truck. 

It helps to have a plan for which rooms and orientation you expect furniture items to be placed at delivery. The removal crews tend to work quite quickly, so furniture items keep coming into the new home at a rapid rate. Its important to be decisive around lounge and bedroom furniture placement as these rooms often have the largest items.

Many full household moves take place over 2 consecutive days. The first day is dedicated to packing the boxes and the following day involves the actual moving. This means Wednesday can often be the quietest day for removal companies. Moves on the weekend are often popular but do attract a surcharge.

Its important to use up as much perishable food as possible prior to moving home. The refrigerator and freezer is required to be empty. Its also important to ensure all dishes and utensils are clean and dry prior to packing, so a take-away dinner or eating out is always a good idea on the night before a move.
