The Kooyong Removalists Locals Actually Trust

For over a decade, our team has moved families and businesses across Kooyong and the City of Stonnington. Unlike generic regional movers, we combine formal training, real local road knowledge of Glenferrie Road, Toorak Road and tram line access, and genuine accountability on every Kooyong job.

Full Goods-in-Transit Insurance

Your belongings are covered from the first lift to final placement in your new home. Policy documents are available before booking, and public liability insurance is included as standard on every Kooyong move, giving you complete peace of mind throughout the relocation.

On-Time, Every Time

We plan routes using local knowledge of Glenferrie Road, Toorak Road, and tram route 16 access. Kooyong's traffic and parking patterns are factored in before the truck leaves, so your moving day stays on schedule from arrival to the final unload.

Transparent Hourly Pricing

There are no fuel levies and no stair surcharges with our Kooyong removalists. The written quote you receive is the final invoice you pay. Clear hourly pricing means you always know the cost of your move before the crew arrives.

Background-Checked Team

Every mover is formally trained in safe handling, protective wrapping for delicate period fittings, and correct lifting technique. Our background-checked crew treats your heritage Kooyong home with the same care and respect we would give our own.

Local Kooyong Knowledge

Heritage Victorian and Edwardian homes bring narrow staircases and doorways, tight on-street parking near Glenferrie Road, and tram line loading restrictions. We plan every access detail across Kooyong before the truck leaves the depot, so nothing slows the move down.

Removalists in Kooyong: Your Complete Local Moving Guide

Kooyong sits approximately 7 km south-east of the Melbourne CBD, within the City of Stonnington, postcode 3144. It is a small, leafy and affluent suburb of grand Victorian and Edwardian homes, best known as the home of the famous Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club, established in 1892 and a former Australian Open venue. The suburb is bordered by Toorak, Hawthorn and Malvern, with Gardiners Creek running along its edge. The name itself comes from the Aboriginal word Kooyongkoot, meaning a camp or resting place. This heritage character shapes every move we complete here, from the streets we use to the equipment we pack.

The property mix in Kooyong is varied. You will find heritage homes near the station, grand period properties along Irving Road and Grange Road, and a number of townhouses and apartments closer to Glenferrie Road. Some residents move between Kooyong and the adjoining suburbs of Toorak, Hawthorn and Malvern, while others are settling into their first Kooyong home after years of saving for the area. Whatever the property type, each one brings its own access points, parking situation and handling needs. As an experienced Kooyong moving team, Ashville Removals has handled all of these property types across the suburb for more than ten years, so we know what each move genuinely requires.

The difference between a true local Kooyong removalist and a national call centre comes down to knowledge. We know the streets, the heritage access points, and the right crew size and equipment for each move. There is no guessing on the day, because the planning is already done before we arrive. You can also explore our wider removal services across Stonnington if your move reaches beyond the suburb.

What Makes Moving in Kooyong Different

Moving within Kooyong is largely about heritage home logistics. Many properties feature narrow Victorian and Edwardian staircases, tight original doorways, and delicate floorboards and fittings that need extra protection during a move. A good number sit on leafy streets where on-street parking is limited and trucks cannot simply pull up out front. Before anything is loaded, our Kooyong crew plans floor and doorframe protection, maps the safest path through the home, and works out the best access point for the truck. This careful preparation protects both your property and your belongings, and it is the reason a heritage move runs smoothly rather than causing damage along the way.

Two factors are specific to almost every Kooyong move. The first is tram and main road access. Tram route 16 runs along Glenferrie Road, and there are permit and loading constraints on the busy strips near Toorak Road, so our drivers plan loading zones and timing carefully to avoid blocking trams or holding up traffic. The second factor is high value contents. Kooyong’s affluent homes often hold antiques, artwork, pianos and fine furniture, which is why we bring specialist wrapping and equipment and confirm that everything is covered under goods-in-transit insurance. Where a narrow heritage street or a tram line frontage requires it, we also coordinate City of Stonnington parking permits in advance. Together, these steps keep your Kooyong relocation safe, legal and on schedule from the first box to the last.

How We Price Kooyong Removals

Our Kooyong removals are charged at a clear hourly rate with a two hour minimum. Before you book, you receive a written itemised quote that sets out the hourly rate, the crew size, the estimated duration and any specialist equipment your move needs. That written quote is the final invoice, so there are no fuel levies, no stair surcharges and no day of additions to surprise you. GST is included, full insurance is included, and free packing boxes come with every booking. The aim is simple. You should know the full cost of your Kooyong move before the crew ever arrives, with nothing hidden in the fine print.

Typical durations help you plan ahead. A studio or one bedroom apartment in Kooyong usually takes around two to three hours with two removalists. A two or three bedroom home generally runs three to five hours with a crew of two or three. A four bedroom heritage home is always given a custom quote, often a half or full day with three or more crew, because narrow access, period staircases and a higher volume of items all take more time to handle properly. Heritage access sometimes calls for a slightly larger crew so that delicate fittings and valuable contents are never rushed. When that is the case, the extra crew is built into your quote upfront, never added to the invoice on moving day. This way the price you agree to is the price you pay.

How Your Kooyong Move Works Start to Finish

We have removed the complexity from moving in Kooyong. Getting started takes just 60 seconds, and from that point our team handles the rest, managing every detail so you can focus on settling into your new home.

Everything Our Kooyong Removalists Cover

Whether you are moving a one bedroom apartment two streets over or a four bedroom heritage home across to Toorak, our service handles every aspect of the job. The right truck, the right crew size and the right specialist equipment are matched to your move, so nothing is left to chance in Kooyong.

House and Apartment Removals in Kooyong

We move every property type found across Kooyong, from heritage Victorian and Edwardian homes to period properties on leafy streets and modern townhouses and apartments near Glenferrie Road and Kooyong station. Each move begins with a right sized truck, moving blankets and rubber straps, plus careful floor and doorframe protection, which matters enormously in homes with original timber floors and delicate fittings. Our background-checked and trained removal crew handles disassembly and reassembly of beds, wardrobes and larger furniture, and wraps everything before it leaves the room. The result is a residential move that respects the age and value of your home while keeping the whole process efficient. From a compact apartment to a grand family residence, the standard of care stays the same.

Packing Services for Kooyong Residents

Our packing service can be tailored to exactly what you need, whether that is full home packing, a room by room approach, fragile only packing, or simply the materials for those who prefer to pack themselves. We use double walled cartons, bubble wrap, wardrobe cartons and picture frame cartons, which are particularly useful for the artwork found in many Kooyong homes, along with mattress bags to keep bedding clean. Every box is clearly labelled by room, which makes unpacking far quicker at the other end. Free packing boxes are included with your booking, and any cartons or materials you do not use are collected afterwards at no charge. It is a straightforward way to take the most time consuming part of any move off your hands.

Specialist Item Moves in Kooyong

Some items need more than a standard crew, and this is where our specialist service comes in. We move pianos, both upright and grand, along with pool tables, safes, antiques and artwork, all of which are common in Kooyong’s affluent heritage homes. For narrow period staircases we use stair-climbing hand trucks, and for heavier loads we rely on pneumatic dollies and proper lifting equipment that protect both the item and your floors. These specialist items are covered under our standard insurance, and we simply ask that you flag anything unusual or particularly valuable at the quote stage so we can bring the correct equipment and crew on the day. Careful handling of high value contents is one of our core strengths in this suburb.

Commercial and Office Moves in Kooyong

For local businesses, we manage office, retail and consulting suite relocations near the Glenferrie Road and Toorak Road strips and throughout the wider Kooyong area. After hours and weekend availability means your relocation can happen outside trading hours, keeping disruption to your customers and staff to a minimum. Each commercial move is overseen by a dedicated site supervisor who coordinates the crew, the access and the timing from start to finish. IT and server equipment is given particular attention, with proper protection and structured planning so that workstations and technology are reconnected quickly at the new premises. Whether you are moving a small studio office or a full suite, the goal is a smooth transition with your business back up and running fast.

How much do removalists cost in Kooyong?

Our rates start at $140 per hour for a small truck with two crew, with a medium truck from $160, a large truck from $180, and an extra large truck with three crew from $240. Every rate includes the crew, all equipment and fuel, with no levies and no stair charges added later. A typical two bedroom Kooyong move takes around three to five hours.

Yes. Full goods-in-transit insurance and public liability insurance are included as standard on every Kooyong move, covering your belongings from the first lift to final placement. If your apartment building or body corporate requires proof of cover before move in, we provide a certificate of currency free of charge. This is common for the apartment complexes near Glenferrie Road, so just let us know at the booking stage and we will have the paperwork ready well before your moving day.
We service 35+ metropolitan Melbourne suburbs including Richmond (3121), Hawthorn (3122), Carlton (3053), Fitzroy (3065), Collingwood (3066), Southbank (3006), St Kilda (3182), Frankston (3199), Werribee (3030), Glen Waverley (3150), and many more. Our base is in Meadow Heights, VIC 3048, and we cover Melbourne’s northern, southern, eastern, and western corridors. Call us on 0404 382 743 to confirm your suburb.

For a weekday move, we suggest booking two to three weeks ahead. Weekends and the end of the month are busier, so three to four weeks is wise during those periods. December and January are the peak moving months, and we recommend four or more weeks at that time of year. If your move is urgent or needs to happen at short notice, call us directly and we will do everything we can to fit you in, including same day jobs where a crew is available.

Yes. We regularly move upright and grand pianos, pool tables, gym equipment and safes throughout Kooyong. Our crew uses piano dollies and stair-climbing hand trucks designed for the period staircases common in the suburb’s heritage homes, along with proper lifting equipment for heavier loads. These items are covered under our standard insurance. We just ask that you flag any piano, safe or specialist item at the quote stage, so we can bring the right equipment and the right crew size on the day.
Yes. Packing is available as an add on and is always quoted upfront, so there are no surprises. You can choose full home packing, fragile only packing, or simply order the materials if you prefer to pack yourself. We use premium double walled cartons, wardrobe boxes and picture frame boxes, the last of which is ideal for the artwork in many Kooyong homes. Free packing boxes come with every booking, and any unused materials are collected afterwards at no extra cost to you.
Alongside Kooyong, we regularly service Toorak, Hawthorn, Hawthorn East, Malvern, Armadale, Hawksburn, Glen Iris, South Yarra, Camberwell and Prahran. Our crews work across the City of Stonnington every day, reaching the suburb via the Monash Freeway with established routes, so coverage is never an issue. We are honest about this. Our depot is not around the corner, but our daily runs through Stonnington mean a Kooyong booking is straightforward to schedule. Call us to confirm coverage for your specific address.
