Jay and Sam were fantastic when asked to do a commercial job on short notice - less than 24 hours. They adjusted their schedule to make sure they could fit the job in and were there on time and showed efficiency and great customer service. I will be using them again to move back into another office.

Removalists Wollongong FAQs

  • Do you move from Wollongong to regional NSW and Canberra?

    Yes, absolutely. We regularly carry out moves from Wollongong to Nowra, Wollongong to Batemans Bay, Wollongong to Canberra and all points along the South Coast and Southern Tablelands. These are some of our most common routes and ones our team knows well. As an owner-operated business, we handle each of these moves ourselves rather than passing your job off to a subcontractor. This means you get the same reliable, careful service regardless of the distance. If you're planning a move to regional NSW or the ACT, get in touch for a free quote.

  • Do you move from Wollongong to Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth or other interstate destinations?

    Yes, we do. It's About Removals provides stress-free interstate removal services from Wollongong to Melbourne, Wollongong to Brisbane, and further afield to destinations like Perth and Adelaide. Interstate moves require more planning than a local job, and we take that seriously. We'll work through the logistics with you from the outset, including timing, access at both ends and how best to handle any fragile or oversized items for the longer haul. We're fully insured for interstate transit, so your belongings are covered door to door regardless of the distance. If you're looking at a move across state lines, reach out and we'll give you an honest, detailed quote.

  • How much does hiring removalists in Wollongong actually cost?

    The straightforward answer is: it depends on your move. Pricing isn't one-size-fits-all, and a number of variables will shape your final cost. Factors that influence the price include the size of your move, the distance to be travelled, and the level of service you need, whether that's just transport or a full pack-and-move job. The cost of hiring removalists can also vary based on the time of year and demand for services, so moving during peak periods like school holidays or end-of-month dates may affect availability.


    The best way to know what your move will cost is to request a clear, itemised quote based on your exact requirements. At It’s About Removals, we provide free quotes with transparent pricing, so you know where you stand from the start. Get in touch today and let us give you a straightforward price tailored to your move.

  • What do Australians call movers?

    In Australia, movers are almost universally called removalists. The term refers to professionals who transport household or business belongings from one location to another, whether that's a local move within Wollongong or a long-distance relocation across state lines. You'll also come across terms like "furniture removers" or simply "removals," but removalist is the standard Australian term used by the industry and customers alike.

  • What questions should I ask removalists?

    Picking the right removalist for the job is worth doing carefully. Choosing the wrong one can lead to heaps of unnecessary stress on the day of your move. Before you commit, here are some of the most important things to ask:


    Are they insured?


    Confirm the removal company provides public liability insurance and transit insurance for your belongings. This is non-negotiable.


    Are they registered with a physical address?


    It is important to verify that the moving company is registered in NSW and has a physical address to avoid untrustworthy operators.


    Do they use their own staff?


    Check whether the removalist uses their own staff or subcontractors to ensure consistent quality throughout your move.


    What equipment do they use?


    Ensure the removal company uses professional tools such as moving straps, dollies, and protective blankets to prevent damage to your belongings.


    What do their reviews say?


    Independent reviews on platforms like Google provide valuable feedback on removalists and give you a realistic picture of what to expect.

  • Is it worth paying for a moving company?

    For most people, absolutely. A DIY move can look like a way to save money on paper, but the time, physical effort and risk of damage often outweigh any short-term savings. When you are moving house, working with an experienced team means you benefit from proper equipment, including furniture pads, sturdy packing boxes and secure loading methods that protect your belongings from start to finish. A professional removals team also applies practical risk management strategies throughout the whole process, reducing the chance of breakages, delays or last-minute issues.


    Local removalists in Wollongong NSW understand the Illawarra region and the best routes to avoid traffic, which keeps your move on schedule. Handling everything from delicate household items to heavy office workstations, whether you are relocating locally or planning an office interstate move, requires care and planning. With clear communication, transparent pricing and no hidden fees, you should expect quality service backed by excellent customer service, not guesswork.


    Whether you are moving a studio apartment, a large family home or a commercial space, choosing a professional removal company like It’s About Removals means you can focus on settling in while we take care of the heavy lifting from start to finish.

  • When should I book a removalist in Wollongong?

    As early as you can. Booking local movers at least several weeks in advance is advisable, particularly around busy periods like public holidays, school breaks and end-of-month dates when demand is highest. Booking in advance can help you secure better availability and rates before the calendar fills up. Once your moving date is confirmed, reach out to It's About Removals to lock it in.

  • Any tips to make moving day go smoothly?

    A little preparation makes a big difference. Here are some practical tips worth keeping in mind:

    • Create a moving checklist to keep track of tasks and make sure nothing is overlooked in the lead-up to moving day.
    • Label your boxes clearly, including which room they belong to, so unpacking at your new place is straightforward and stress-free.
    • Empty drawers of heavy items before moving day to prevent damage to furniture and reduce unnecessary weight.
    • Use a fitted sheet to protect your mattresses during transit.
    • Keep important documents and valuables with you on the day rather than packing them onto the truck with everything else.
    • Use high-quality boxes, tape, and bubble wrap to protect fragile and valuable items during transit.
    • Have a plan for pets and children on moving day to keep things calm and manageable for everyone involved.

    If packing feels like too much to take on, It's About Removals offers full and partial packing services. We bring all the materials and take care of everything from wrapping to labelling, so you don't have to.

  • Do you handle furniture removals?

    Yes, we do. Our experienced furniture removals team handles everything from single large items to full home and office moves. Using well-maintained, company owned trucks and the right equipment, we load, transport and unload your furniture with care, keeping your belongings protected throughout the move and helping deliver stress free moves from start to finish.
