Does Move My Stuff provide storage of goods?

You storage requirements can be taken care by our sister company Store My Stuff. It uses a very unique model which not only reduces the handling of your goods, but also saves you up to 65% of your storage costs. Please visit Store My Stuff for more information.

What type of moving equipment is carried in the vehicles?

All of our vehicles carry moving blankets, straps, shrink wrap and a hand trolley. Other equipment such as tool box (for disassembling and assembling furniture), platform trolleys etc can be organised at request. Please let us know at the time of booking if any other equipment is required.

Are my goods insured and what happens if goods are damaged during the move?

Our movers are insured for public liability, but goods in transit are not automatically covered for damages. Although we take all care in moving your goods, but the unexpected can happen, so we highly recommend that a separate “goods in transit” insurance is organised prior to the move. Please talk to one of our representatives and we can refer you to insurance companies who can get your goods insured in no time. Our complete policy on damages can be found on our terms and conditions page.

Do you offer a packaging service?

Our movers can certainly assist you with packaging of your goods. This can either be done just prior to the move or any other day as you prefer. You can either organise your own packaging material, or we can bring in the packaging material such as boxes, tapes etc, and you only pay for the material that you have used. Please talk to our representatives for the prices for our packaging service.

Is it safe to move a fridge in a laying down position?

Experts recommend that if a fridge is turned off a few hours before and is not turned back on a few hours after the move, its perfectly safe for the fridge. But having said that, if you are not comfortable to move your fridge in a laying down position due to the height of the van, we prefer that you book an open tray (if only moving a few items), or a truck so that we can transport your fridge in an upright position. Please let us know your preference at the time of booking.

How do I know if my items will fit in the vehicle?

At the time of booking, we try and ascertain the size and quantity of goods to recommend the moving vehicle, so that we are not making multiple trips to move your goods. So, its important that you give us an accurate description of goods at the time of booking, otherwise we may have to make multiple trips on the day to move your goods which may cost you more eventually. You can also estimate the total volume of your items by using our Volume Calculator. This will give you an indication on the total volume of your items and the vehicle in which it can fit in.

How long removal jobs generally take?

That is a good question. As you can imagine each move is unique and different from each other. It can depend on things like where the truck can park, what access is like at the property, whether any stairs are involved, whether the goods are ready to go when we arrive etc. That said, depending on those circumstances on a rough average a full load in a 4T Truck can take anywhere from 2-4 hours. But that is just a rough estimate and it will depend on the circumstances on the day. The 8T Truck average is generally between 4-6 hours and 10T Truck can range anywhere between 6-8 hours.

Are there any time slots or job start time?

8T Truck's are always between 7-9am or between 1-3pm. If you are looking for a more specific time then we can narrow that down to a 1 hour window, between 7-8am or between 8-9am and our driver can give you a call when they are half an hour away. 4T Truck’s are a little more flexible. The start times range from between 7-9am, between 10am-12.30pm, between 1-3pm or between 3-5pm.

Do we have insurance?

All of our movers are covered with public liability insurance. This means that if any damage were to happen to the walls or floors, it is automatically covered by insurance. In regards to the goods, if any damage is made through our own handling and negligence then we would get it fixed or replaced for you.

Can I ride in the truck?

Most of our trucks have 3 seats. If requested, we can arrange a spot for one person only to sit in the truck with the removalists. Give us a call for more information 1300 907 911.

Are the movers experienced?

All of our movers are trained and experienced and come fully equipped with blankets, straps, trolley and tools.

Payment can be paid either by cash or card at the end of the job with a 3% surcharge charged by the bank.

How Our Warehouse Relocation Process Works

Moving a warehouse is not the same as moving a house or an office. There’s more at stake: stock control, supply chain continuity, and the risk of costly downtime if the move isn’t planned properly. Here’s how we manage the process from start to finish.

1. Site assessment and planning Before we move anything, we visit your warehouse (or arrange a virtual inspection) to assess your layout, stock volume, racking systems, and any specialised equipment. This lets us scope the job accurately and build a realistic moving timeline around your business hours, not the other way around.

2. A move plan built around your operations Every warehouse runs differently. Some businesses can pause for a weekend; others need to keep shipping orders the entire time. We work with your operations and admin teams to schedule the move in phases where needed, moving lower-priority stock first and time-sensitive inventory last, so your supply chain keeps moving.

3. Packing, labelling, and stock control We pack and label everything by zone, so stock arrives at the new site already organised by category rather than as an unsorted pile of boxes. This is one of the most overlooked parts of a warehouse move. If your team has to spend two weeks re-sorting inventory after the move, you haven’t actually saved any time.

4. Disassembly and reassembly of racking and shelving Pallet racking, industrial shelving, and storage systems are disassembled, transported, and rebuilt at your new site by our team.

5. Transport with the right fleet We choose from our fleet of 4-tonne, 8-tonne, and 10-tonne trucks based on your stock volume, running multiple vehicles in parallel for larger relocations to keep the job on schedule rather than stretching it across unnecessary extra days.

6. Set-up at the new site We reassemble racking, position stock according to your new floor plan, and leave your warehouse in a state where your team can resume operations immediately, not after another week of internal reorganising.

Why Warehouse Relocations Need Specialist Movers

A removalist can move office furniture or household items without much risk.

Warehouses carry different risks entirely, heavy racking that needs proper disassembly, bulk stock that needs to stay organised through transit, and the real business cost of downtime if a move overruns.

Our team has handled 15+ years of commercial and industrial relocations across Melbourne, which means we plan for the things that cause warehouse moves to go wrong.

We’ve managed warehouse and distribution centre moves for businesses in:

Furniture Retail
Homewares
Logistics and 3PL
Manufacturing
FMCG distribution.

Whether you’re relocating a single-site warehouse or consolidating multiple distribution centres into one larger facility, we scale our crew and fleet to match the size of the job.

FAQ’s

Any question? Read our FAQs.

How much does warehouse relocation cost in Melbourne?

Warehouse relocation costs in Melbourne typically range from $1,500 to $15,000+, depending on the size of your warehouse, the volume of stock and equipment, and how far you're moving.

How long does a warehouse move take?

Most warehouse relocations in Melbourne take between 1 and 5 days, depending on the size of the facility and how much planning is done in advance. A small warehouse with straightforward shelving can often be moved over a single weekend. Larger sites usually need a phased move over several days to keep disruption to operations as low as possible.

Can you relocate our warehouse without stopping daily operations?

In most cases, yes. We plan warehouse moves in stages, relocating non-essential stock and equipment first, then handling high-priority items during off-peak hours or after-hours to minimise downtime. For businesses that can't afford to pause operations, we can run the move overnight or across weekends so your team is back to full operating capacity with little to no disruption to order fulfilment or customer deliveries.

Do you disassemble and reassemble warehouse shelving and racking?

Yes. Our team handles full disassembly, transport, and reassembly of pallet racking, industrial shelving, and storage systems as part of the move. We also relabel and re-organise stock locations on request, so your new site is set up and ready to operate from day one, not just unloaded boxes and dismantled frames.

What size trucks do you use for warehouse relocations?

We use a fleet of 4-tonne, 8-tonne, and 10-tonne trucks, selected based on the volume and weight of your warehouse stock and equipment. For larger relocations, we can run multiple trucks or multiple trips to keep the move on schedule. Our team assesses your warehouse during the quoting stage to recommend the right vehicle combination so nothing is left behind and nothing is double-handled unnecessarily.

Do I need insurance for a warehouse relocation?

We carry standard transit cover for goods in transit, but given the value of commercial stock and equipment, we recommend speaking to your business insurance provider about additional cover for high-value items during the move. Our team can talk you through what's included as standard so you can decide if extra cover makes sense for your specific stock.

I was up and running at my new place within a couple of days. All in all, a very positive experience!

Move My Stuff helped me relocate from Altona to Brunswick within a short time frame. They managed the packing around my work shifts, which was a big relief, and the movers were knowledgeable on all technicalities of the move and guided me aptly. A positive experience for me! Recommending everyone if you are looking to hire a man with a truck in Melbourne.

Joanna Springer

For my recent apartment relocation, I used MoveMyStuff\'s man with a truck service, and I couldn\'t be happier. The team was really efficient, on time, and gentle with my items. The entire process was easy and stress-free, and the truck was big enough to fit all of my stuff. Highly Recommended!

Janatin

Quick and efficient is what I would describe my moving experience, thanks to Man with a Van. They deliver what they promise!

Donald Simpson

Man with a Van was highly efficient and shouldered a major part of the moving worries. My children are under 2 and I was able to focus on their wellbeing during the move, instead of running helter-skelter to tie up all loose ends. I would recommend Move My Stuff, especially when you have small kiddos to manage.

Zosie Patrick

I was in a bind and needed someone for a last-minute furniture pickup and delivery. I reached out to book their man with a truck service, and the team came to the rescue. Their amazing staff arrived promptly and were courteous and professional.

Jumera

My friend recommended Man with a Van service, and I contacted them to manage my move. From the first point of contact to completion, they managed things immaculately and kept me in the loop too. The team put me at ease with an amiable demeanour and a go-getter attitude. Thanks Move My Stuff! I would recommend you to my friends and family.
