Jake Removals has been moving Melbourne for over 20 years and has helped more than 50,000 customers relocate, from single items and first apartments to full family homes and offices. Being one of the cheap removalists Melbourne locals rely on doesn't mean cutting corners. It means running every job efficiently, so you get experienced movers and a well-equipped truck at a price that fits your budget.
We keep costs down by quoting honestly, sending the right size truck and crew for your load, and planning around stairs, lifts, driveways and parking before we arrive. Our movers know how to wrap, load and carry furniture quickly without rushing it, so the job takes less time and you only pay for the hours your move actually needs. Billing runs door to door, with no depot-to-depot fees added on top.
Every job also includes the protection you'd expect from a premium mover, with goods in transit and public liability insurance as standard. You see your price before you book, and there are no surprise extras on the day.

Get an Instant QuoteWhen Mandy first called to book, she'd been waiting a long time for her new home to be finished, and moving day was finally in sight. Then, while the builders were completing the works, the house flooded. Her handover was pushed back, and Mandy had to reschedule her move more than once.
Each time her plans changed, our team moved her booking to suit. Mandy was understandably stressed that our dates were filling quickly and she might miss out on moving the day her house was finally ready. When the builders confirmed her handover, we made sure she got the date and time she needed.
Mandy was grateful for a smooth move and for our flexibility in accommodating her date several times. She left us a lovely Google review about the move, and we're glad to have been part of her journey into her new home.

2 professional movers, a truck sized to your load, protective blankets, trolleys and straps, dismantling and reassembly of standard furniture such as beds and tables, and goods in transit insurance up to $50,000.
Tuesday and Wednesday. On those days you get any size truck (6T, 8T or 10T) for the price of a 6 tonne truck, including 2 movers. Weekends and the end of the month are the busiest times, so mid-week dates are also easier to book.
We are. Every move includes goods in transit cover up to $50,000 and public liability cover up to $20 million. If you're comparing quotes, check that the other removalist's price includes insurance too.
