Inland family belt west of Chelsea proper, quieter and lower-density than the beachside strip — Wells Road school catchment, Chelsea Heights Wetlands on the northern edge.
Chelsea Heights moves are almost entirely detached homes on generous 600-800m² blocks laid out from the 1970s onwards. The suburb's major arterial is Wells Road (Old Wells Road for the older houses), and most street layouts are conventional grid or gentle curves — no cul-de-sac surprises. This is one of our most predictable Kingston runs. At 9km from Cheltenham depot we treat it as a home-turf job with no travel loading on the hourly rate.
9km from Cheltenham — a straight run down Wells Road. On-site within 15 minutes.

Services in Chelsea Heights
Every type of move we run here
Same crews, same trucks, same hourly rates — whichever of these your Chelsea Heights move turns out to be. Ordered by what we do most often in bayside & coastal 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 Chelsea Heights they are shaped by driveways & off-street parking.
1
Instant estimate, then a human check
Enter your Chelsea Heights 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
Frontage, verge and the weather window
Coastal streets around Chelsea Heights have generous frontages and awkward verges in equal measure. We check where the truck can legally sit, whether the driveway takes weight, and how exposed the carry is — salt air and a sudden squall are real risks to unwrapped furniture, so we plan the covered sequence in advance.
4
Truck sized to the load, parked at the door
Most Chelsea Heights 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
Packed to the room it is going to
We load by destination room, not by size, so the unload runs in the order you actually want it. Fragile items are wrapped individually, wardrobes travel on port-a-robes rather than folded into boxes, and the inventory is checked off as the truck fills.
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 Chelsea Heights move in about two minutes.
Access, parking and what we move in Chelsea Heights
Access & the streets
Most Chelsea Heights streets are wide enough for a 12T without a walkthrough. The exceptions are the older courts off Doyle St and Norwood Ave, which we size down to an 8T for.
Driveways & off-street parking

Why it matters
AFRA accredited vs a cheap quote in Chelsea Heights
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 Chelsea Heights job.
What you are comparingEasy Peasy · AFRA memberNon-accredited operator
Transit protection on exposed carries✓Blankets, covers and wrap included as standard — necessary on Chelsea Heights's exposed frontages, not an upsell.✗Wrapping charged per item, or skipped entirely to keep the hourly headline rate low.
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.
The depot, the people and the company behind your Chelsea Heights move
A quote is only worth what the business behind it is worth. Here is who actually turns up,
where they come from, and what we are accountable to.
Your depot
Cheltenham Depot
Unit 5/168 Chesterville Rd, Cheltenham VIC 3192
You are one of our closest suburbs. Trucks leave for Chelsea Heights first thing rather than after a cross-town run, which is why start times here hold.
Head office + secure indoor storage facility. This is where the fleet lives and where storage clients' goods are held.
Easy Peasy is an AFRA member and a registered NDIS provider, externally audited on insurance, equipment, driver conduct and complaints handling. The same standards apply to a one-bedroom Chelsea Heights flat as to a full house.
Long-established family suburbs, Monash University, and Melbourne's biggest multicultural belt.
Chelsea Heights is one of the suburbs we cover across South East. Same crews, same trucks and the same hourly rates apply right across the region, so if you are moving between South East suburbs — or out of South East entirely — it is the same team either way. The South East page lists every suburb we cover in this part of Melbourne.
How close is Chelsea Heights to your Cheltenham depot?
9km — a straight run down Wells Road that takes 12-15 minutes off-peak. That short travel component keeps the total quote lower than for further suburbs on the same job size.
Can you fit a Chelsea Heights move on a Saturday?
Yes — Saturday slots book faster than weekdays, but Chelsea Heights being close to depot means we can usually fit last-minute weekend jobs around scheduled work.
How much do removalists cost in Chelsea Heights?
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 Chelsea Heights moves run on a 10T at around $210/hr, and at 9km 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 Chelsea Heights move take?
A typical Chelsea Heights job runs 6–8 hours, based on the bayside & coastal 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 Chelsea Heights?
Usually very straightforward. Most Chelsea Heights 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 Chelsea Heights?
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 Chelsea Heights do you also cover?
All of them. We regularly move between Chelsea Heights and Huntingdale, Gardenvale, Oakleigh, Bentleigh, Dingley Village and Hughesdale. 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.
