Removalists Derrimut
Hourly removals across Derrimut's new estates and industrial pocket
Moving through Derrimut’s new estates
Derrimut is one of Melbourne’s newer suburbs, carved out of Deer Park in 1998 and built up with estates that now fill the ground between Foleys Road and Boundary Road. The houses have wide garages and big rooms, but many of the estate roads are still young, and on moving day you can find skip bins, builder parking and half-formed kerbing thinning the carriageway to a single lane. Our Derrimut removalists ask about the street situation at both ends before putting a quote together, because the truck that parks easily on a wide court may not fit down the lane behind it.
We charge local moves by the hour and run trucks in several sizes, so you pay only for the space and the crew the job actually needs. A supervisor is on every truck and owns the loading plan. 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.
Freeways on the doorstep
The Deer Park Bypass runs through the suburb and feeds the Western Ring Road to the east and the Western Freeway to the west. That puts the Hume within minutes for furniture heading to Sydney or Canberra, and the Western Freeway for anything heading west toward Ballarat or Adelaide. You can book a truck reserved for your household on a fixed delivery day, or share space on a backload and pay only for the room your furniture occupies.
If you are arriving in Derrimut from another state, we drop everything at the door and place it where you direct. When the new home is not available yet, your furniture can sit in our climate-controlled facility under round-the-clock surveillance until you collect the keys. We hold goods for a few days between settlements or for months during a renovation, and our crews handle the collection and the final delivery.
Wrapping, packing and what the crew covers
Furniture gets wrapped in blankets and plastic and secured with straps for the drive. Dining tables, beds and any flat-pack wardrobes come apart at the old address so they travel safely, and the crew puts them back together once the truck is unloaded. Every move is backed by our public liability and transit insurance.
If you want packers to handle the kitchen and glassware the day before, that can be added to the booking. Boxes, paper and tape are for sale. Sealed boxes are quicker to load, which trims time off the clock and keeps the bill shorter. With Derrimut’s newer homes, wide hallways and generous doorframes usually make the internal carry straightforward once the truck is positioned.
Get a quote for a Derrimut move
To quote a move from Derrimut, we ask for both addresses, how many bedrooms, whether anything is especially big or heavy, and what the access looks like at each end. We figure out the right truck, put together a price and send it through. If you want to gauge the volume beforehand, try the estimator below. There is no charge for the quote, and it does not commit you to anything.
You can shave time off a move by having boxes sealed and labelled, drawers empty, walkways cleared and a parking space saved near the door. Call 1300 724 553 to talk it over, or drop a note through the contact form and we will be in touch.

The rate depends on the truck and crew your job needs. We quote once we know the access at both ends, so you see how the price is built before you book.
A truck that fits the street
Derrimut's estate streets have short driveways and close garage spacing. We pick the truck that gets in without blocking the neighbours.
Supervised from start to finish
A supervisor runs the move, sets the loading order and checks every item is wrapped and strapped before the truck leaves.

Common questions about moving in Derrimut
How do you handle access on streets where the estate is still being finished?
We ask about the street before quoting. If the road is narrow or there is no finished kerb, we pick a smaller truck or plan the carry from wherever it can safely park. Builder vehicles and skip bins can block the way, so we allow for that when scheduling.
Can you move office furniture or equipment from the Derrimut industrial area?
Yes. Derrimut has a large industrial precinct along Mt Derrimut Road and Swann Drive, and we handle office and warehouse moves there around the clock, including nights and weekends. We work out the loading plan with you in advance so everything goes back together correctly at the new site.
Which freeways does the truck take for an interstate move from Derrimut?
The Deer Park Bypass connects to the Western Ring Road, which feeds the Hume for Sydney and Canberra. Adelaide-bound loads head west on the Western Freeway instead. The route depends on where the furniture is going, and we sort that out during quoting.
Do you take apart and put furniture back together?
Dining tables, beds and flat-pack wardrobes are pulled down at the old place and rebuilt at the new one. If a piece needs two people to hold it or specific tools, the supervisor plans that into the job before we start.
Can I pack my own boxes and just book the truck?
Absolutely. If you do the packing yourself, make sure each box is sealed, not too heavy for one person and labelled with the room it belongs in. Properly packed boxes load quicker, which keeps the time and the bill down. We sell boxes, paper and tape if you need supplies.
