Frankston removalists — the Peninsula's regional CBD, from Bayside Shopping Centre apartments to established family belts and beachside cottages. Cheltenham depot is 20km up the highway.
Peninsula's regional CBD. Full mix — CBD apartments around Bayside Shopping Centre and the station, older family homes north of the CBD, beachside cottages along Frankston Foreshore, Monash Peninsula campus.
Frankston is one of our largest single-suburb move volumes on the Peninsula. Everything from studio apartments in the Bayside Shopping Centre area to 4-bedroom family homes north of Cranbourne Rd. Being the regional CBD means we also handle a steady stream of small-business relocations in and out of the CBD commercial belt along Nepean Hwy and Playne St. Access is straightforward — the CBD has restricted parking but the commercial buildings usually have dock or forecourt loading. At 20km from Cheltenham depot we run trucks here every day.

What we move hereApartment towers & managed buildings
Same crews, same trucks, same hourly rates — whichever of these your Frankston move turns out to be. Ordered by what we do most often in apartment towers & managed buildings.
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 Frankston they are shaped by permit & time-limited parking.
1
Instant estimate, then a human check
Enter your Frankston 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
Building booking, before anything else
Towers run the schedule, not us. We confirm your building's service-lift booking window, the loading-dock slot, whether the dock has a height limit, and who issues the Certificate of Currency. In Frankston that call happens before we lock your date — a lift booked for the wrong two-hour window is the one thing that can turn a smooth move into an expensive one.
4
Truck sized to the parking, permits sorted
Where Frankston has permit or time-limited parking, the truck has to fit the legal spot — not just the furniture. We size accordingly, and where a council permit or a reserved bay is needed we tell you which one and when to apply, because those take lead time and the fine does not care that you were moving. At 20km from Cheltenham Depot the run to your door is short and predictable, so start times hold.
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 Frankston move in about two minutes.
CBD around Bayside Shopping Centre has restricted parking — most commercial buildings have dock or forecourt loading, book with the property manager. Playne St has AM peak clearways.

What it costs
Frankston removalist costs — work it out now
Pick your home size and where you are going. These are the same truck rates, call-out and
two-hour minimum our crews are dispatched on — so this is an indication, not a teaser.
For a real quote against your actual addresses, the calculator takes about two minutes.
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 Frankston
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 Frankston job.
What you are comparingEasy Peasy · AFRA memberNon-accredited operator
Certificate of Currency for your building✓Issued on request, usually same day. Most Frankston buildings will not release a lift booking without one.✗Often unavailable, or a generic certificate that building management rejects — and you find out the morning of the move.
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.

Long-established family suburbs, Monash University, and Melbourne's biggest multicultural belt.
Frankston 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.
Do you handle Frankston CBD apartment moves around Bayside Shopping Centre?
Yes — CBD apartment blocks are a regular job for us. Freight-lift bookings and loading-dock access are handled with the building manager at quote stage.
Can you cover Frankston commercial and small-office moves?
Yes — Playne St and the wider Frankston CBD commercial belt is on our regular commercial-move route. Weekend and evening windows available to minimise business disruption.
Is Frankston too far from your depot for a short-notice booking?
No — at 20km we can usually accommodate same-week and even next-day bookings around scheduled work. Call 0431 747 411 to check current availability.
How much do removalists cost in Frankston?
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 Frankston moves run on a 6T at around $190/hr, and at 20km 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 Frankston move take?
A typical Frankston job runs 3–5 hours, based on the apartment towers & managed buildings 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 Frankston?
Yes, and it is worth planning. Permit and time-limited parking around Frankston decides where the truck can legally sit, which decides your carry distance. Photograph the signs outside both addresses and send them through, and we will tell you whether a council permit or a reserved bay is worth arranging.
Can you move us on a weekend in Frankston?
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 Frankston do you also cover?
All of them. We regularly move between Frankston and Frankston North, Skye, Dandenong, Carrum Downs, Frankston South and Patterson Lakes. A move between two neighbouring suburbs is one of the most common jobs we run — short drive leg, same crew, same hourly rate.

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.
