Moving out of an apartment or a small city flat is very different from moving out of a house mainly because it is hard even before you leave the building. You have to deal with getting couches into small elevators carrying heavy boxes down long hallways and trying to fit a moving truck into a small basement area. It can become a problem. That is why we do not just send any workers; we send a team of apartment movers in Melbourne that really understands how to move things in and out of apartments. They have trucks and know how to handle tight spaces.
What makes Boss Removals different from other moving companies is that we really care about your building's rules and your precious time.

So our single item movers in Melbourne work quickly and carefully to make everyone happy. We take care to protect the doors and hallways in your building so you do not lose your security deposit. We do all the work so you can focus on setting up your new place.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Get all your common questions answered about our moving and packing services and process.
Absolutely. Most building managers will not let a removalist like Boss Removals step foot inside the lobby without seeing public liability paperwork. Just let us know what your building needs a day before the move. We will email the Certificate of Currency insurance document straight over to you or your building manager to keep things moving smoothly. We want to make sure that Boss Removals has all the documents.
This is a problem that many moving companies face. Boss Removals has a fleet of vehicles that are designed to fit into tight spaces like basement parking areas. These vehicles are profile which means they can slide right under those tight basement gates and into residential loading zones. This way Boss Removals does not have to park down the street and haul your furniture a distance.
You will need to talk to your building manager or caretaker to book a time slot for the service elevator. Apartment lifts are close. Getting a dedicated time slot ensures that the Boss Removals crew can load the truck quickly without waiting for neighbors. This saves you a lot of time and money because Boss Removals can work efficiently.
No lift is no problem for Boss Removals. Our small movers in Melbourne are skilled at carrying heavy furniture up and down stairs. We know that bringing an awkward couch down three flights of tight winding stairs requires skill and extreme care to avoid damaging the walls. Just let us know at time of booking how many flights of stairs we need to deal with when you book Boss Removals so we can plan the move correctly.
Boss Removals wrap everything inside your apartment. We know that moving items down corridors into small lifts and through fire doors can be risky. To avoid accidents we wrap your mattresses, couches and TVs in padded blankets and protective wrap before we even leave your apartment. This way your furniture and the building's hallways stay safe.
Yes Boss Removals can do that. Many apartment lifts are small. Cannot fit large items like king-size bed frames or wardrobes. Our apartment movers in Melbourne have the tools to quickly take apart any furniture that won't fit the lift or a tight stairwell corner. Then we will put it all together perfectly at your new place.
Boss Removals does not have hidden fees. We know that some apartment complexes have corridors that can make the walk from the apartment to the lift feel like a long hike. As long as you tell us about the layout and access paths when you ask for a quote we will include all the walking time in our upfront pricing. You will not get any surprise bills from Boss Removals.
Boss Removals can help you pack much or as little as you want. If you are short on time you can book our packing service. Our small removalists in Melbourne will come with boxes, bubble wrap and tape to pack up your kitchen, wardrobe and shelves safely. This way you can focus on things, like utility switch-offs and key handovers while Boss Removals takes care of the packing.
