I need to get quotes, no idea where to start. Won't need an awfully big truck as its mainly just the bedroom furniture, but I will need at least 2 strong guys to get the stuff down the stairs (very tricky, huge flight of concrete stairs, lots of twists and bends). Dad/Family is not an option.

Thanks in advance :)

I used Blair at a company called A Better Moving Company (ive used them twice)

They are awsome and the price includes a truck and two burly men lol

There number is 3581444 (I cant find his cell at the mo, but it is on their answerphone on the above number)

They cost $95.00 + GST an hour with no hidden charges (some charge a fuel levy)

Oh and I rang about 10 when we moved .. and these guys were cheaper by about $15.00 an hour!

We use Conroy removals for all our requirements.
I am not in that specific industry but am close by, can you give you some good contacts at Conroy

Same here, it's amazing what you can get strong men to do for pizza and a beer
