Tullamarine Removalists

Flat streets near the freeway, loaded and delivered by the hour.

Flat blocks and wide streets

Tullamarine is flat. The residential area sits inside a loop of Moonee Ponds Creek, 14 kilometres north-west of Melbourne’s CBD, and most homes are on recent estates with wide driveways and generous street corners. A moving truck can usually park right at the kerb without blocking the road or reversing down a tight drive, which is half the battle in a lot of Melbourne suburbs.

Our Tullamarine removalists bill by the hour, with the rate locked to the truck and crew the job calls for. You tell us the rooms, the heavy items and both addresses, and we price it. The supervisor on each truck owns the loading plan, deciding what needs padding, what needs pulling apart and what goes on last. Bed frames, wardrobes and dining tables are broken down for the drive and put back at your new place. 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.

Where the freeways connect

The Tullamarine Freeway runs through the suburb and meets the Western Ring Road just to the north. That junction is why interstate loads from this part of Melbourne reach a motorway within minutes. A truck heading to Sydney or Canberra joins the Hume from the Ring Road without touching city traffic. Adelaide and Geelong loads go west on the Ring Road to the Princes Freeway instead. Brisbane loads head north on the Hume and then the Pacific.

Take a dedicated truck with a fixed delivery day, or save by sharing space on one heading the same way and pay for the room your load fills. If you are moving into Tullamarine from interstate, we bring everything inside and unload room by room. If the new place is not sorted, we hold the load in climate-controlled storage until it is ready and then deliver to the door.

What goes on the truck and how it gets there

Everything goes in blankets and plastic before it touches the truck. Straps hold each piece in place for the freeway and the local streets. Whether the job is a townhouse in Gladstone Park or a bigger home near the Moonee Ponds Creek loop, the method is identical. Each job carries public liability and transit insurance from start to finish.

After a packing crew for the wardrobes and kitchen the day before? Add it to the quote. We sell boxes, paper and tape as well if you would rather sort it out yourself. Our Tullamarine removalists also handle loads that need to wait between settlements: your things stay together in monitored, climate-controlled storage and we bring them out when you say.

What we need to quote a Tullamarine move

Let us know both addresses, how many bedrooms, any bulky pieces and whether there are stairs at either end. We work out a truck and a rate and put it in writing. No cost, no commitment. Use the volume calculator below to gauge the load.

An organised house moves fast. Tape the boxes, clear the drawers and hold a spot at the kerb so the truck parks right outside. Ring 1300 724 553 to go over it on the phone, or drop us a line on the contact form.

Built into every Tullamarine move

Pay for the space you use

We run trucks in several sizes and send the one your load actually needs, so you are not paying for an empty half-truck or making a second trip.

One person owns the plan

A supervisor on the truck sets the loading order, decides what gets padded and makes sure everything comes off in the right sequence at the new place.

Flat-pack taken apart and rebuilt

Beds, dining tables and wardrobes are pulled down before the truck and reassembled at the new address as part of the move.

Blankets and straps on every piece

Furniture is wrapped in blankets and plastic and strapped in the truck so nothing shifts on the freeway or the local streets.

Moving near the airport and freeways

Is it easy for a truck to reach a house in the Gladstone Park end of Tullamarine?

Yes. Gladstone Park is part of the same flat residential loop inside Moonee Ponds Creek, with wide streets and generous corners. A full-size truck can generally park at the kerb outside the front door without blocking the road or needing to reverse down the drive.

Which freeway does an interstate load take from Tullamarine?

The Tullamarine Freeway connects to the Western Ring Road just north of the suburb. Sydney and Canberra loads join the Hume from there. Adelaide and Geelong loads take the Princes Freeway west, and Brisbane runs head north on the Hume before switching to the Pacific. The truck reaches a motorway within minutes of leaving your house.

Can you move someone out of a light-industrial unit in Tullamarine?

Yes. Commercial and office moves are available around the clock, including nights and weekends. We work out the loading plan with you beforehand, pad the equipment and handle IT gear separately. Tullamarine has a lot of light industry alongside the residential estates, so our crews know the mix.

Does airport traffic affect move times in Tullamarine?

The Tullamarine Freeway can be busy at peak hours, especially near the airport interchange. We factor that into the schedule and, where possible, start earlier to avoid the worst of it. Once the truck is on the residential streets inside the Moonee Ponds Creek loop, traffic is not a factor.

Can you move a house from Tullamarine to Airport West across the railway?

Yes. Airport West is just south of the Albion-Jacana railway line that marks Tullamarine’s southern boundary. The road crossings are close, so the drive is short and the hours stay low. Access at both ends matters more than the distance on a move like that.

I had a fantastic furniture removal experience with Careful Hands Movers. Today, it was 44 degrees Celsius. I feel sorry for choosing to move home in such terrible weather, but the two men have no complaints and finish everything quickly. They provided me with a full range of services, from disassembling furniture to reassembling it in the new house, and guaranteed no damage in the whole process. I appreciate it! I will hire them when I move next time!

This is the second time I have used this removalist company, and I am still so happy with their service. They are really nice guys who were there on time and offered great service throughout the morning, we even had a few laughs with them here and there. We had a lot of stuff, and they managed really well working with us on a few challenges (lots of stairs, narrow driveways). I will only use this company when moving.
