Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to hire a Cairns removalist?
We provide free, no-obligation quotes for home removals. During this process we will assess the volume of items to be moved, the distance between your existing and new property and any other factors such as antique or fragile items. Local moves in Cairns can range from $2,000 to $5,000 for a standard 2 bedroom home. For larger homes, or for longer distances such as interstate moves, it may cost more.
Am I able to take plants interstate with me?
If you are leaving Cairns, Queensland and are heading interstate, in most cases, you should be able to take your pot plants with you. However, individuals must adhere to border restrictions in Western Australia and Tasmania.
Our team will be able to advise you on the specific restrictions at the time of booking.
