Moving in or out of Bentleigh East? Large post-war suburb of brick homes with heavy townhouse redevelopment — and we know how to load it. From $160/hr, 2-hour minimum.
Large post-war suburb of brick homes with heavy townhouse redevelopment — one of our closest.
The Bentleigh East job sheet is dominated by family homes, townhouse moves, first-home purchases, and downsizers. Being close to the Cheltenham depot means we can send a second truck mid-job if the volume turns out larger than estimated, without charging you a whole extra crew day. All of it goes into the estimate before you commit — no day-of surprises. We are 6km from our Cheltenham depot.
Our Cheltenham depot is 6km away. Short depot legs are the single biggest lever on what you pay.

Services in Bentleigh East
Every type of move we run here
Same crews, same trucks, same hourly rates — whichever of these your Bentleigh East move turns out to be. Ordered by what we do most often in established family homes.
Six steps, in order, from the moment you enter your address to the moment the crew leaves.
Steps three to five are the ones that change from suburb to suburb — and in Bentleigh East they are shaped by driveways & off-street parking.
1
Instant estimate, then a human check
Enter your Bentleigh East address and the calculator returns a real number in about two minutes, built from the same pricing our crews are dispatched on. Our team then reviews the enquiry personally and comes back the same business day.
2
Your date, locked with a written quote
You get the truck size, the crew size, the hourly rate, the call-out and the surcharge (if you are moving on a weekend) in writing before you commit. Nothing on that sheet changes on move day unless you change the job.
3
Levels, driveway and the carry distance
Three questions decide a Bentleigh East quote: how many levels, can a truck park close to the door, and how long is the carry. We ask those before we ask how many bedrooms, because a single-level house with a straight driveway and a two-storey with a long side path are very different days at the same bedroom count.
4
Truck sized to the load, parked at the door
Most Bentleigh East properties take a full-size truck at the door, which is the cheapest possible configuration — short carry, one trip, no shuttle. We size to your inventory rather than defaulting to the biggest truck, because you pay for the truck you book. Your crew leaves Cheltenham Depot minutes away, so the truck is at your door at the start of your window rather than an hour into it.
5
Protected first, loaded second
Floor runners and doorframe padding go down before a single item moves. Mattresses go into covers, screens and mirrors into purpose-made cartons, and the load is built heaviest-first so nothing shifts on the drive.
6
Placed, reassembled, and signed off
Beds go back together, furniture goes where you point rather than where it lands, and the crew does a final walk-through with you before they leave. Billing stops when the last item is placed — we bill by the minute after the two-hour minimum, not in rounded-up half hours.
That is the whole process — no step six-and-a-half.Start at step one and you will have a number for your Bentleigh East move in about two minutes.
Access, parking and what we move in Bentleigh East
Access & the streets
Original streets are wide with driveways. Newer townhouse rows have shared driveways where a 12T can't turn, so we confirm the street when quoting.

two-hour minimum our crews are dispatched on — so this is an indication, not a teaser.

Indicative only. Your real quote depends on the actual drive between your two addresses,
stairs, lifts and carry distance. Weekend and public-holiday surcharges are per crew member.
Why it matters
AFRA accredited vs a cheap quote in Bentleigh East
Anyone can put a truck on a website. AFRA — the Australian Furniture Removers Association —
audits members every year on insurance, equipment, training and complaints handling.
Here is what that difference looks like on a Bentleigh East job.
What you are comparingEasy Peasy · AFRA memberNon-accredited operator
Insurance that actually covers your goods✓Full public liability and goods-in-transit cover, externally audited as an AFRA member.✗Often no goods-in-transit cover at all — the quote is cheap because the risk sits with you.
Written quote before you commit✓Truck, crew, hourly rate, call-out and any weekend surcharge in writing before you book. Billed by the minute after the two-hour minimum.✗Verbal estimate over the phone, then a "the job was bigger than expected" conversation at the end of the day.
Vehicles and equipment✓Owned, maintained fleet of 20+ trucks with blankets, trolleys, straps and port-a-robes on board as standard.✗Hire truck booked that morning, with equipment charged separately or simply not carried.
Who actually turns up✓Uniformed, screened, trained employees. The same crews week after week, not a different pair each job.✗Subcontracted or casual labour with no background screening and no accountability back to the company.
If something goes wrong✓A documented complaints process, externally audited every year as an AFRA member, with an escalation path that ends at a named manager.✗No formal process. Your options are a chargeback, a bad review, or small claims.
Cancellations and no-shows✓A depot, a dispatcher and a backup truck. If a vehicle breaks down we send another one.✗One truck and one driver. A breakdown or a double-booking means your move simply does not happen that day.
Pricing after the job✓The rate you were quoted, billed to the minute. No fuel levy, no stair levy, no "heavy item" surprise.✗Low headline rate, then call-out fees, travel time, fuel surcharges and equipment hire added at the end.

Bentleigh East is one of the suburbs we cover across South East.

The South East page lists every suburb we cover in this part of Melbourne.
What should I know about truck access in Bentleigh East?
Original streets are wide with driveways. Newer townhouse rows have shared driveways where a 12T can't turn, so we confirm the street when quoting. Tell us the street when you book and we will send the right truck rather than the biggest one.
How much does a Bentleigh East move cost?
From $160/hr for a 2T van or $180/hr for a 4T truck with two removalists, 2-hour minimum, then billed by the minute. Bentleigh East is 6km from our Cheltenham depot, so the travel component stays modest. Run your address through the Instant Quote calculator for a full breakdown in about two minutes.
How much do removalists cost in Bentleigh East?
From $160/hr for a 2T van or $180/hr for a 4T truck with two removalists, with a two-hour minimum and then billed by the minute. Most Bentleigh East moves run on a 10T at around $210/hr, and at 6km from our Cheltenham Depot the travel component stays modest. Run your address through the Instant Quote calculator for a full breakdown in about two minutes.
How long does a Bentleigh East move take?
A typical Bentleigh East job runs 5–8 hours, based on the established family homes we move here most often. Stairs, lift waits and carry distance are what move that number, which is why we ask about access before we ask about bedrooms.
Do you handle the parking and access issues in Bentleigh East?
Usually very straightforward. Most Bentleigh East properties take a full-size truck at or near the door, which keeps the carry short and the job on the lower end of the estimate. We just need to know the driveway takes truck weight and that nothing overhangs the approach.
Can you move us on a weekend in Bentleigh East?
Yes — Saturday and Sunday slots are available and they book out first, so give us as much notice as you can. Weekend work carries a surcharge paid per removalist (+$11/hr Saturday, +$22/hr Sunday on a two-removalist truck), and it is shown on your quote before you commit rather than added afterwards.
Which suburbs near Bentleigh East do you also cover?
All of them. We regularly move between Bentleigh East and Aspendale Gardens, Oakleigh South, Clayton South, McKinnon, Waterways and Bentleigh. A move between two neighbouring suburbs is one of the most common jobs we run — short drive leg, same crew, same hourly rate.
Are you insured and AFRA accredited?
Yes. Easy Peasy Removals is an AFRA member, externally audited on insurance, equipment, driver conduct and complaints handling. We carry public liability and goods-in-transit cover, and we can issue a Certificate of Currency on request — usually the same day, which is what most buildings and body corporates ask for before they will release a lift booking.

Very easy to deal with from booking to packing and unpacking the truck. The removal team of David and Oscar were very thorough and careful but also efficient. Highly recommended.

Chris and JP from Easy Peasy Removals were terrific. They were very pleasant and polite and careful with our belongings, moving all our belongings carefully including some large antiques. I can really recommend Easy Peasy. They made our move so much easier.
