FAQS

When looking for an interstate removals company here are just a few reasons why you should move with us:

Will my belongings be safe during the move from Cairns to Canberra?

Absolutely. All our interstate furniture removals use a containerised system, meaning your consignment will remain in the same container from start to finish. Our Cairns furniture removalists will pack your belongings using special materials to keep fragile items safe. Once the container is packed, we transport it using the rail network, which is one of the smoothest methods of transport.

The container is only opened once it reaches your new destination. This means there is no double handling, reducing the risk of breakages.

How long do your Cairns to Canberra removal services take?

Several consignments go between Cairns and Canberra each week. Typically, it takes between 5 and 10 days from collection to delivery. However, timings may vary depending on your requirements.

Are you able to relocate my car from Cairns to ACT?

We can safely move your vehicle, boat, or jet ski from Cairns to Canberra or anywhere in the ACT.
