I used this company to help move my stuff into storage. All I can say is Thiago and Bruno are amazing. I am so grateful for them, all my stuff is safe and sound. No breakages and they were so time efficient as well. Would use this company again.
Moved a large 4 bedroom 5 minutes down the road last week with the help of Hire a Mover; 4 men, 2 trucks did the job with amazing efficiency and professionalism in about 10 or 11 hours (self-packed). From the quotation, to the confirmation, to the team on the day, the move was one of…
Moving is so stressful but the team at Hire a Mover made the move so easy and seamless, I couldn't be more grateful! Originally I was nervous dealing with removalists having had a bad experience in the past. But the team was early, friendly and immediately put me at ease. All three guys were really…
Andre and Gaetan were absolutely AMAZING!!! I'd been dreading the move, and have way too much stuff for a one bed flat. I hadn't even finished packing by the time they got there, but wow oh wow, they were helpful, professional, careful, increadably efficient and both with beautiful smiles and an energy that was genuinely…
I had Eberton and the boys move us from Wooloowin to Mitchelton today and highly recommend them. The were extremely professionally and respectful of our furniture, they were prompt and highly efficient. They had a couple of tricky items that they managed with ease. Thank you so much guys…job VERY well done!
Great experience, fast, efficient, great communication. Highly recommend and really happy with the service during a stressful move
Thanks to the team at Proficient Removals / Hire a Mover. The move was a bit bigger than the last time we used you guys in 2021, but the experience was smooth. Booking the move was so simple, with Adam calling up post the website enquiry to get the full details. Adam’s recommendation was to…
I cannot rate Hire A Mover - and in particular the team of G, Igor, and Michael - enough. They were careful, considerate, friendly, helpful, and extremely patient with our move which was extended to 11 hours due to a delayed settlement process. If you're planning a move then call these guys (and ask for…
I've used Hire A Mover twice in Sydney Inner-West. In 2021 and now in 2024. Both times I've been so impressed. The best movers I've ever used. All four guys have been friendly, trustworthy, caring and nothing was too much. Both moves were difficult with loads of delicate things, heavy things and long days. Both…
Quick, efficient, no nonsense small house removal. Used the 2 Men and a Truck service within Adelaide to move the contents of a small home about 40km. Took around 4 hours (we had pre-packed quite a lot). They managed to do it with care to both residences and the contents of the move. They were…
We had a fantastic experience with Hire a Mover (and hire a box). The two removalists arrived at 8 o'clock on the dot and got straight to work preparing and packing the truck. They were always very clear with communication, clarifying what was and wasn't to be moved and also respecting our items. The house…
