Removalists Murrumbeena
Hourly moves for character homes and units near the Pakenham line.
Character homes and new units along the railway line
Murrumbeena is a small suburb 13 kilometres south-east of Melbourne’s CBD, sitting on the Pakenham and Cranbourne railway lines. The housing is a mix of older weatherboard and brick character homes on streets like Wahroonga Crescent and Murrumbeena Road, alongside newer apartment blocks closer to the station. A two-bedroom unit next to the railway is a different move from a four-bedroom home near Duncan McKinnon Reserve, and our Murrumbeena removalists price each one on what the job actually involves.
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. We run trucks in several sizes so you pay for the space your furniture needs, not for an empty deck.
Matching the truck to your Murrumbeena street
The streets around Murrumbeena Village and Poath Road are lined with parked cars, so a big truck cannot always pull up to the door. On Neerim Road, the traffic and clearway signs add another layer of timing. We check the street, the driveway and any stairs before quoting, and choose a truck that can park close without blocking the road.
A supervisor is on every truck, directing the loading plan from the first item to the last. Our crew wraps every item in blankets and plastic, then straps the load tight so nothing can shift during the drive. We pull apart beds, tables and flat-pack wardrobes at the old address and rebuild them when we unload.
Packing a Murrumbeena household
Older Murrumbeena homes near the Beauville Estate have had families in them for decades, and the volume of belongings can surprise people on moving day. Our packing team can come the day before, box the kitchen and wardrobes, wrap fragile items and label every carton by room. Boxes, paper and tape are included when you book the team, or you can buy packing materials from us early and do it at your own pace.
Every job is covered by public liability and transit insurance, so your furniture is protected from door to door. If your settlement dates leave a gap, we pick up your load and place it in climate-controlled storage, monitored around the clock, until you have the keys, whether that gap is three days or three months.
How to get your Murrumbeena quote
Interstate moves from Murrumbeena head out through the south-eastern suburbs to the freeway network. You can book a dedicated truck with an agreed delivery day to Sydney, Brisbane or Adelaide, or share a truck with another Melbourne load and pay only for the space your furniture uses.
Send us both addresses, the number of bedrooms, and anything heavy or awkward like a piano or a pool table. We send a price and a truck size, and the calculator below lets you estimate the volume ahead of time. There is no cost for the quote and no obligation to book. Boxes packed and sealed, drawers emptied, and a clear path from the front door to the truck can shave real time off the job. Call 1300 724 553 or fill in the contact form and we will reply the same day.

Murrumbeena moving questions
How do you handle parking near Murrumbeena station on a moving day?
The streets around Murrumbeena Village and the station are tight with commuter parking. We check the street before quoting and, where needed, send a smaller truck that can park closer to the door. If your building or body corporate requires a loading zone or a time window, let us know and we schedule the job around it.
Can you move a piano out of an older Murrumbeena home?
Yes. Pianos and pool tables are quoted as their own item because they need extra hands and the right gear. Many of the character homes on Wahroonga Crescent have narrow front paths and a step at the door, so we plan the route through the house before we start lifting.
What happens if my settlement dates do not line up?
We collect your furniture and place it in climate-controlled storage, monitored around the clock, until the new place is ready. For a family leaving a house on Poath Road with a two-week gap before the new keys, we keep the load together and deliver once you are in.
Do you move offices along Poath Road or Neerim Road?
Yes. We run office and commercial moves any day of the week, including nights and weekends. For a shopfront on Neerim Road that needs to reopen Monday morning, we can move the furniture and equipment over Saturday and Sunday and have everything set up before staff arrive.
How long does a local move in Murrumbeena usually take?
It depends on the volume and the street access. A two-bedroom unit near the station with good lift access might take three to four hours. A four-bedroom weatherboard on Murrumbeena Road with a long path to the kerb takes longer. We quote the hours once we know both addresses and the big items.
