Hiring the Cheapest Removalist
Can Come With Some Risks

Moving can be an expensive task – it feels like there’s one cost after another. You have to buy packing boxes, there’s lots of hidden and unexpected cots, you may have to pay for damages, and more. And if you’re on a budget, you’ll be tempted to find the cheapest removalist around. In our

While working with a shoestring budget is okay sometimes there are big risks when it comes to hiring the cheapest removalist. This is because when it comes to removalists, you get what you pay for – and for the most part, most of the cheap removalists are inexperienced, not qualified and may not have the resources you need to move securely. Specifically, you end up with an inappropriately sized vehicle, which causes a big risk to your valuables, precious furniture, adding to your moving stress as well as unexpected costs.

Yes, a cheap removalist may save an extra coin for you but at what cost? In most cases, you end up incurring more costs than hiring a relatively expensive but reliable removalist.

Some of the Risks that Come With Hiring a Cheap Removalist

A Cheap Removalist Can Cause Damage to Your Furniture

Choosing a cheap and inexperienced removalist means that you risk damaging your furniture. Loading a removal truck efficiently while ensuring that all your furniture and other house equipment is safe is a bit of an art form.

You need an experienced removalist with appropriately-sized vehicles and the right personnel to securely load, transport, and unload your furniture and other household equipment. You can’t expect to get such services when you pay bargain-basement prices. When choosing a removalist, make sure their team is certified. It is an independent body of removalist experts that offer training and complete audits on removalists to see if their service is up to standard.

Cheap Removalists Usually Have Limited Staff

Most cheap removalist companies operate on skeleton staff to save on costs. This means that a firm may not have a big enough team to handle all tasks which means furniture removal processes which require a team to complete may not be completed safely and up to standard.

Some cheaper removalist companies will tempt their customers with a very low hourly rate, however take much longer to complete the job anyway because they haven’t got the team to get the job done quickly and effectively. Not to mention, some cheap removalists don’t help with packing and unpacking your furniture and other pieces of equipment or are capable of safely disassembling and assembling your furniture to a high standard.

You May Not be Covered When You Choose The Cheapest Removalist

There are a few insurances every removalist must offer to ensure their customers are protected:

Public Liability Insurance in case of any unlikely damage done to your property while moving house. Choosing a removalist that doesn't offer public liability insurance can be a major risk for your assets.
Transit Insurance. This covers your goods and furniture while moving home in any instance of damage, negligence during the moving process
Workers Compensation should anyone on the removalist team sustain an injury on your premises, you're covered.

Cheap Removalists Usually Lack Credibility

Most cheap removalist don’t have a website or strong online presence. This makes their credibility questionable since there is no reputation to uphold. You may hire the cheapest removalist in Sydney but suffer more consequences during transit.

To assess their credibility, you should hire a removalist with a website and many 5-star reviews on Google or customer testimonials. This way, you can be sure to end up with the best removalist company at an affordable price.

Hidden Extra Cost

They say cheap is expensive, which is especially true when it comes to hiring the cheapest removalist. Some removalist companies fail to include all the extra fees on the quote, and you may end up paying more than others.

That’s why it’s important to ask yourself why the quote is so cheap. Consider whether it contains such costs like:

Fees for bulky items
Extra stops fees
Fuel levy
Assembly/dismantling fees
Travel fees
Missing insurance essentials
Not providing workers compensation
Cheap equipment
They only have a couple of trucks

This list contains some of the fees most “cheap” removalists omit from their quote. Nonetheless, to have your furniture and household items delivered securely, you’ll have to pay them eventually.

Cheaper Removalists Usually Lack Professionalism

How the removalist firm behaves during the relocation is a key determinant of the success of your move. Such things as driving safely, notifying you when they’re running late, and knowing how to pack and load your items can go a long way towards making your move a success. It reduces headaches and ensures your items are handled and delivered safely. A removalist who takes pride in their job has a standard of professionalism to uphold. Unfortunately, many cheap removalists can often fall short of acting professionally leaving you with a sub par service.

Excellent service at a great price. From the first quote to the pick up and set down day - lovely people who really know their stuff.

The guys who moved us were lovely- they worked hard and were so polite and careful with our belongings. They were so good to kindly move things around too. They also managed to move our Springfree trampoline without us having to dismantle it! 🙌 👍😉

We highly recommend Six Brothers having used them for 3 moves!!

I recently had to relocate from interstate. Was a big move. I was put on to 6 Brothers Removalist’s through friends who had highly recommended and used them prior.

Steven and Rio exceeded expectations with the prompt reply and service. The service provided was exceptional. The lads took great care with everything and were extremely efficient, polite and courteous. They went above and beyond. The price was amazing, definitely the best by far after various quotations.

I would highly recommend them and will definitely be using them again in the future.

This is the third time I've used Six Brothers, as I find their teams to be very professional and quick.

For my most recent move, Michael and Andy did a fantastic job. The situation at the building I moved into was a difficult one to navigate - loading dock access only, multiple elevators and long walks - but they did it all with a professional, cheerful and helpful attitude the whole time. They wrapped my fridge, table top and bed in protective layers unasked - a lovely added extra.

Very highly recommended.

We used Six Brothers Removalist to move our 3-bed townhouse. The whole experience dealing with them was seamless. The initial information I got was everything I needed to know and was kept up to date with text messages reminding me of the move and the arrival time on the day. They arrived within 15mins of the original time we agreed on and finished exactly on the time they estimated it was going to take. The workers that did the move were polite and professional and made every effort to take care of our furniture and belongings.

It was a pleasure dealing with Six Brothers Removalist and would recommend them to anyone!

I recently moved long-distance, during COVID restrictions, while six months pregnant.

Six Brothers did a fantastic job, and helped reduce the stress of the move. They were very professional and efficient and took good care of all my items. They arrived on time, and were very speedy packing everything up, and delivered items when they said they would. They also respected COVID safety procedures and took care to social distance while in my house.

Thank you!

Six Brothers are absolutely second to none. Hands down the best removalists in Sydney.

I have used them many times. The booking process is easy, professional, quick and everything is covered and explained.The guys on the day are efficient respectful of your home and belongings and very friendly. The cost is fair and they always make an effort to get the job done quickly.

Do not hesitate to use this company for your next move. You will be thrilled with the service.

They charge by the hour and work hard and efficiently. Very polite and friendly.

They took great care with our furniture and were extremely careful getting our fridge through the narrow doorways of an old cottage.

I would definitely recommend and use them again.

Thank you again for making the move stress free.

Great service from the first phone call. Cynthia was friendly and helpful. Like most people I hate moving, but Steven and John made it as pleasurable an experience as possible. They have moved my belongings twice now and on each occasion arrived on time and were careful and efficient. Above all they were friendly and funny and dealt cheerfully (on both occasions) with the problems the wet weather delivered. Everything was put in the right room and unpacking has been less stressful as a result. If i was planning to move again Six Brothers Removalist’s would be the first call I'd make - but unless they move coffins they probably wont be hearing from me again.

I highly recommend them - I would not move with anyone else.

A very big THANK YOU to the team at Six Brothers Removalists for their professionalism and hard work!

I really cannot speak more highly of this company and the team that moved us - they were absolutely fantastic from the initial onsite assessment right through to assembling our furniture in our new home. They arrived on time, protected and moved our furniture with experience and care, and were extremely hard working. The team's communication throughout the move was exceptional and they went above and beyond to make the move as smooth as possible!

I highly recommend Six Brothers and will not hesitate to use them again!

Haitham and John were proffessional, arrived on time and efficient. I can not fault them.

I was so nervous trying to decide on a removalist. So many to choose from but am so happy I selected 6 Brothers Removalists to do the relocating for me. Big bonus, not only was their service efficient the removalist cost was a lot cheaper compared to other companies.

I would definitely use this company again and happy to recommend.

John and his team did a fantastic job in helping us move home.

Not one piece of furniture was scratched or damaged and no breakages at all even with an hour journey between locations.

Really professional and very friendly guys.

Highly recommend them for your move.

I can highly recommend this company, I have used them twice so far and Frank and the others have been extremely good at what they do.

Not only are they careful, they are swift and organised. They are strong and fit and don’t waste time. I was so impressed with their politeness and professionalism the first time I had to get them back again for my next move.

5 Stars and value for money!

Six Brothers helped me move from a 2 bed apartment.

Frank and Sam turned up right on time and completed the move with care and speed.

Communication was good with the booking and confirming details.

Very happy with the service and value.

I can’t thank the boys and the team enough at Six Brothers Removalist.

I was always kept updated with time of arrival and any correspondence was managed in a professional manner. Sam and John were so polite and careful with my belongings. It certainly made the stress of moving much easier.

Would highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge more for weekends?

We understand that some of our customers are only able to move on the weekends. In the interest of giving everyone a fair go, we charge the same for weekend and weekday moves! We’re also striving to offer our customers a highly affordable moving experience so we’re one of the cheapest removalists in Sydney.

Do you move offices as well?

100%! We’re experts in office removals and logistics. With our corporate moves, we even send a coordinator free of charge to help strategise and organise all aspects of the move.

Can you dismantle and reassemble (beds, wall units, desks…)?

Absolutely! Our removalists are also handymen. Our certified team carry general tools and are more than happy to help with disassembling and assembling any furniture. However specialist tools such as drills will need to be supplied by the customer.

Where are you located?

We’re Sydney Removalists with our office located in the heart of Parramatta.

We do however, offer our services to anyone living in NSW as well as interstate/virtually Australia wide.

When and how do we pay?

Payment is either by cash or credit card a half hour before completion of the removal services on the day. Any other arrangements (i.e. postponed payments) will have to be arranged and approved by our head office before your scheduled move.

When it comes to our payment process, everything is transparent and up front. We tell you everything you need to know before the day we remove your furniture to your new home.

What about the free box service?

Our removalist team happily offers unlimited free boxes to help make your move that much easier! We ask for a conditional bond of $3 per box.

Can my mates help the removalists?

Of course, anything our customers can do to make moving cheaper, we’re all for it. However a special note to please avoid jumping inside the truck, since the insurance does not cover you!

How Long Have You Been Providing Removalist Services?

We started Six Brothers in 2009. Beginning as a family run business, we noticed people saw moving as a stressful experience. This made us determined to break the negative stereotype around moving by offering an exceptional service, excellent rates and by making moving day an enjoyable experience!

Click here to read more about us and how we started one of the leading removalist services in Australia.

What days are you most busy?

We tend to be busy on weekends due to our customers working schedule. Due to this reason, we do recommend you book a few months in advance should you require our help on the weekend to ensure you have a spot.

What is backloading?

Backloading is utilising the empty space of one of our removalist trucks that’s completing an interstate or long distance removalist job. This will typically be a truck that’s returning from the state or town it originally came from.

Backloading is a great option for customers who have a little more flexibility with their moving sate in exchange for a cheaper moving option. It benefits both parties. We can use the space of a returning truck that would have otherwise been empty, in exchange for a cheaper rate on your move.

An important note: There’s absolutely no difference in the service when it comes to a regular move or a backloading move. All customers that choose backloading will still receive the same 5-star service Six Brothers is famous for!

What's the cost of a removalist?

The cost of a removalist comes down to many different factors. For example: the size of your house, amount of furniture to be moved as well as distance to travel can all factor into the cost of your move. Our goal however is to always provide the best rate for our customers!

For a general estimate on your move please click here or use our moving calculator for a more accurate quote.

How do you keep costs low?

Mainly by getting our processes down to a T. We’ve been helping our customers successfully move for years which means we can get the job done as efficiently and affordably as possible.

Do you charge a fuel levy?

Yes all jobs have a minimum of 5% fuel levy. Fuel levy can change depending on distance travelled:

Jobs that exceed 40km have a 10% fuel levy
Jobs that exceed 80km have a 20% fuel levy
Any jobs that have return travel are a minimum of 15% fuel levy regardless of the distance between
Additional charges may apply if the destination runs through a toll road/highway

What times are you available?

The following are our shift times when you can book our removalists in for your next move:

7:30 am – 9:00 am
9:00 am – 1:00 pm
11:00 am – 2:00 pm
1:00 pm – 4:00 pm
3:00 pm Onwards

Any hidden costs?

No way. Being transparent and up front with our customers will always be the key feature of our service.

We ensure our customers are fully aware of all costs involved in their removal so they can be fully prepared.

We take pride in offering great customer services and also being one of the cheapest removalists in Sydney.

When should I call a moving company?

The earlier, the better. Although the actual van assignment may not be made until a few days before your move, it’s wise to give your moving company from four to six week’s notice, if possible. The more lead time you can give, the more likely we will be able to meet your preferred delivery schedule.

How long does it take to move?

This depends on many factors, such as weather conditions, size of your home, time required to load and unload, parking, and the direction and distance your shipment is travelling.

We do however, work hard to ensure we get the move done as quickly and safely as possible!

Can my possessions be stored temporarily?

Absolutely. We offer highly affordable temporary storage solutions with well-ventilated modules where we can store your belongings in our local storage. Your goods will be safe and sound in our storage facilities until you’re ready to pick them up.

Note: Using our storage facilities comes with storage charges, warehouse valuation coverage and final delivery charges from the warehouse.

How do you measure quality?

We’re always seeking feedback from our customers and have a range of established channels that allow us to monitor performance.

We also survey our customers after their relocation. The results are tabulated by a third-party company and distributed to all internal service providers on a daily basis. This allows us to receive feedback on an ongoing basis, while also tracking trends so we can continue to identify areas for improvement.

How does your service differ from that of your competitors?

In addition to offering the highest quality of service, backed by the most resources in the industry, we offer a variety of packages that can offer a customized relocation experience for everyone.

Do you offer backloading?

Yes we do! As we’re proudly one of the best interstate removalists in Sydney, we’re constantly on the road helping our customers move interstate. This means we’re often able to offer our customers backloading opportunities for a more affordable move.
