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! ------------- Mummy to Issy (3) and Elias (18 months) I did it .. 41 kgs gone!
