Removalists Wantirna South
From quarter-acre blocks to Knox apartments, matched to the right truck.
Old orchard blocks and new apartments in one suburb
Wantirna South sits 25 kilometres east of the city on the Knox side of Burwood Highway, and the housing here ranges from the original quarter-acre blocks that replaced the old orchards through to the multi-storey apartment buildings going up near Westfield Knox. A three-bedroom weatherboard on a wide block off Scoresby Road is a different move from a two-bedroom apartment on the fourth floor at Knox Central, and our Wantirna South removalists quote each one on its own details.
We bill by the hour, with the rate determined by the truck size and crew count your move calls for. Describe the rooms, list the heavy pieces and flag the access at both ends, and we match a vehicle to the situation. 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. A supervisor leads every job, sets the sequence and keeps the hours tight.
How the crew handles a Knox-area home
The older homes along Templeton Street and around Studfield Shopping Centre tend to have long hallways, built-in robes and solid timber furniture that has been in the house for decades. Our crew dismantles beds, dining tables and flat-pack wardrobes and puts them back together at the new place as part of the job. Every item gets blanket cover, plastic sheeting and ratchet straps before the truck rolls.
The newer apartments near Knox City come with their own set of problems. Lift bookings, shared loading docks and narrow corridors mean the crew has to plan around time slots and building rules. Tell us the building manager’s requirements when you get the quote and we work the schedule around them. All our work is backed by public liability and transit insurance, from a ground-floor unit to a house perched on a steep driveway off Mountain Highway.
Heading interstate from the eastern suburbs
Wantirna South has easy access to EastLink heading south and the Monash Freeway heading west, which makes it a straightforward launch point for interstate loads. A household heading to Sydney picks up the Monash and connects to the Hume. Loads to Adelaide run the same way through the western ring, and Brisbane runs north from the Eastern Freeway to the Hume.
You can book your own truck with an agreed delivery date, or split a backload with another household and pay for just the cubic metres your furniture occupies. If the new place is not ready when you need to leave, we store everything in our monitored, climate-controlled warehouse and bring it to the door once you have the keys.
Get a price for your Wantirna South move
Tell us where you are now and where you are heading, how many bedrooms, any bulky pieces and whether the crew faces stairs, a goods lift or a long walk from the kerb. We send back a truck recommendation and a written quote. No charge, no lock-in. Use the calculator below to estimate volume before you call.
Because the price follows the clock, preparation saves real money. Tape up the boxes the night before, clear the drawers, reserve a park close to the entrance and book the goods lift if your apartment requires one. That groundwork can trim a full hour from the bill.

Wantirna South moving questions
Can a big truck get into the newer estates off Scoresby Road?
Some of the newer cul-de-sacs and shared driveways around Scoresby Road and Cathies Lane are tight for a full-size truck. We ask about the street before we quote, and if a large truck cannot swing around we bring a compact one and map the carry so nobody wastes time walking.
How do apartment moves near Westfield Knox work?
Most of the apartments near Knox City have a loading dock and a goods lift with time slots managed by the building. Give us the booking window and any rules when you request a quote and we schedule the crew around them. We bring trolleys and blankets sized for lift corridors and plan the load so the biggest items go first.
Is EastLink or the Monash Freeway faster for an interstate move from here?
It depends on the direction. Loads heading to Sydney or Canberra usually pick up the Monash Freeway west to the Hume. If you are heading to Gippsland or the south-east coast, EastLink south is the shorter run. We plan the route when we quote so the driving time is as short as it can be.
What happens if settlement dates do not line up?
We pick up the load, keep it in our monitored warehouse with climate control, and bring it to the new address once you are ready. The gap might be a weekend between settlements or half a year during a renovation.
Do you move pianos out of older homes on Mountain Highway?
Yes. We price pianos separately because they call for additional crew and specialist equipment. The older homes along Mountain Highway often have front steps and narrow internal doors, so we map the carry path in advance and bring the people to match.
