Matraville removalists who know the streets — established residential suburb with post-war homes and growing townhouse infill. Same crews, same standards, same transparent pricing.
Established residential suburb with post-war homes and growing townhouse infill.
In Matraville, the work is mostly family homes, townhouse moves, and first-home purchases. Summer parking pressure near the beaches is real and predictable, which is why we push eastern beach jobs into early-morning windows wherever the building allows. All of it goes into the estimate before you commit — no day-of surprises. We are 11km from our Double Bay office.
11km from our Double Bay office — a standard run we make most weeks, priced accordingly.
Same crews, same trucks, same hourly rates — whichever of these your Matraville 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 Matraville they are shaped by driveways & off-street parking.
1
Instant estimate, then a human check
Enter your Matraville 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 Matraville 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 Matraville 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. At 11km from Double Bay Office the run to your door is short and predictable, so start times hold.
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 Matraville move in about two minutes.
Original streets are wide with driveways. Newer townhouse rows have shared driveways and limited turning.

What it costs
Matraville 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 Matraville
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 Matraville job.
What you are comparingEasy Peasy · AFRA memberNon-accredited operator
Transit protection on exposed carries✓Blankets, covers and wrap included as standard — necessary on Matraville'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.

What should I know about truck access in Matraville?
Original streets are wide with driveways. Newer townhouse rows have shared driveways and limited turning. Tell us the street when you book and we will send the right truck rather than the biggest one.
What do removalists charge in Matraville?
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. Matraville is 11km from our Double Bay office, 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 Matraville?
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 Matraville moves run on a 10T at around $210/hr, and at 11km from our Double Bay Office 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 Matraville move take?
A typical Matraville 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 Matraville?
Usually very straightforward. Most Matraville 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 Matraville?
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 Matraville do you also cover?
All of them. We regularly move between Matraville and Chifley, Coogee, Malabar, Randwick, Maroubra and South Coogee. 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.
