Removalists Crib Point

Western Port moves from Bittern to Stony Point, priced by the hour.

A Peninsula move with distance built in

Crib Point is 64 km south-east of Melbourne, on the Western Port side of the Mornington Peninsula. That drive is part of the job, and the quote reflects it. A local move between Crib Point and nearby Bittern, Hastings or Tyabb is a short run, but a move between Crib Point and inner Melbourne means an hour or more each way, with the crew on the clock the whole time.

We charge by the hour and work out the truck and crew once we know the access at both ends. Most homes around Crib Point and neighbouring Somerville sit on larger residential blocks with room to park in the driveway or out the front, so the loading itself is usually simple. The streets near the Stony Point railway terminus and along the Western Port foreshore are quiet and wide enough for our larger trucks. Properties closer to HMAS Cerberus sometimes have longer driveways, so we ask about the access up front.

How we wrap, load and protect your furniture

We blanket and plastic-wrap each item, then strap it tight for the hour-long run back up the Peninsula. Beds and dining tables come apart before the truck and are reassembled once we reach the new house. The supervisor calls the sequence, deciding what rides on last so it comes off first and where each strap goes.

Want packing handled as well? Our packing crew comes the day before, sorts the kitchen, wardrobes and breakables, writes the room on every box and tapes it shut. We sell boxes, paper and tape separately for anyone who wants to do their own packing. Local rates start from $75 per half hour for a two-person crew and a 20 cubic metre truck, and the full list by truck size is on our removalist prices page.

Leaving the Peninsula or storing between settlements

Interstate loads from Crib Point head up the Mornington Peninsula Freeway and onto the Monash to reach the Hume toward Sydney and Canberra, or the Princes Freeway toward Adelaide. A full truck gives you a fixed delivery date, or sharing with another Peninsula load lets you pay by the volume. Each job runs under our public liability and transit insurance.

If your new place is not ready, we put your furniture into secure, climate-controlled storage and bring it out when the new address is ready for you. That covers a few days between settlement dates or longer while the Peninsula house needs work.

Drop us the pickup and delivery addresses, the number of rooms and any heavy items. We reply with a truck size, a crew plan and a price. Our volume calculator below helps you estimate the load ahead of time. The quote is free, and you are under no obligation.

Preparation saves hours. When the truck arrives and you are already packed, the crew loads straight away instead of waiting. Have boxes sealed, paths clear and a spot saved for the truck. Call 1300 724 553 or use the contact form for a prompt reply.

Questions about moving from Crib Point

Removalist answering questions about a move

Does the drive from Melbourne to Crib Point add to the cost?

Yes. The clock runs from when the crew heads out to when the last piece is placed at the new address. Melbourne to Crib Point is about an hour each way, and that travel is part of the job. A local move within the Bittern, Hastings and Crib Point pocket avoids most of that distance.

Can you handle a move on a large block with a long driveway?

Yes. Larger residential blocks around Crib Point and the streets near HMAS Cerberus sometimes have long or gravel driveways. We ask about the surface and clearance before quoting so the truck we send can actually reach the house. If the driveway is too soft or narrow, the carry is planned and the time built into the price.

Do you service Bittern, Hastings, Tyabb and Somerville as well?

Yes, all of them. These towns form the same urban pocket on Western Port, and we move between them regularly. Tell us both addresses and we quote the whole job, drive included.

What if I am moving from Crib Point to another state?

Interstate loads from the Peninsula head up the Mornington Peninsula Freeway and join the Monash. Sydney and Canberra go via the Hume. We can send a truck for your load alone with a set delivery day, or you can share space on a backload and pay by the volume.

What packing help can you add to a Crib Point move?

Our packing crew comes the day before, sorts the kitchen, wardrobes and breakables, and writes the room on every box before taping it shut. We also sell boxes, paper and tape for anyone who wants to pack on their own. Sealed boxes stack tighter and save loading time on the day.
