Moving house is one of life’s most stressful experiences. Between sorting through years of belongings, safely packing fragile items, and coordinating removalists, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. That’s where Home Moving Planners come in. As experienced movers and packers in Melbourne, we take the stress out of moving by handling every detail for you.

Our compassionate team understands that packing up a home isn’t just about boxes and bubble wrap; it’s about handling your memories and possessions with care.

Our team also offers optional services to help you with your needs, including:

Our Packing and Unpacking Services

At Home Moving Planners, we’re not just packers and movers Melbourne families call when they need boxes filled. We’re a full-service team that manages every aspect of your move. Our services include:

Packing Assistance

  • Expert guidance on what to take and what to leave behind
  • All belongings sorted and packed by room
  • Quality packing; professionally wrapped and protected with paper and bubble wrap to keep breakables safe
  • Clearly labelled boxes with detailed manifests so you know exactly what’s in each box

Moving Coordination

  • Organising removalists and other trades
  • Arranging rubbish removal before settlement
  • Taking items to and from storage
  • Providing all necessary packing materials (boxes, bubble wrap, packing tape, etc)
  • Coordinating the sale or donation of unwanted furniture

Note: We often receive enquiries from people who only want furniture sold. While we can assist with selling unwanted furniture through trusted second-hand dealers, this service is only offered as part of our full household packing services. We are not second-hand dealers and do not provide valuations, quotes, or purchases as a standalone service.

Why Choose Home Moving Planners?

When searching for home mover Melbourne services, you want a team that combines expertise with empathy. With years of experience and a genuine commitment to making your transition easier, Home Moving Planners pride ourselves on delivering a service that feels organised and transparent. Here’s why families trust us to make this process as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Family-Owned with Family Values

As a family-owned business, we treat every client as if they were part of our own family. We bring compassion, honesty, and respect to every home we work in, understanding that moving is often an emotional experience. 

Expert Packing and Moving Team 

Our team brings years of experience in helping families pack and move. We understand how to efficiently sort through possessions, identifying what should come with you and what can be left behind. 

Finding Hidden Valuables 

We’re skilled at finding important documents, valuables, and items that might otherwise be overlooked. Over the years, our team has discovered lost wedding rings and thousands of dollars hidden in unexpected places. It takes skilled professionals to carefully sort through a house, separating items that appear to be rubbish but are actually valuable.

Detailed Organisation 

Every box is clearly labelled, and we create a comprehensive box manifest so you know exactly what’s in each box and which room it belongs in. This makes unpacking at your new home straightforward and stress-free.

Cost-Effective Rubbish Removal 

Our in-house rubbish removal service is faster and more discreet than skip bins. We can complete multiple loads in a single day, and you only pay for what we remove. 

Single Point of Contact

With Home Moving Planners, you won’t have to deal with multiple contractors. We serve as your single point of contact, coordinating every aspect of maintenance, allowing you to focus on other priorities.

Fast Turnaround Times 

We know settlement dates don’t wait. Our efficient team can pack and prepare your home quickly, ensuring you meet your moving deadlines without the stress.

Our Process

STEP 1: Free Consultation

An initial phone conversation or email is made to discuss your circumstances, priorities, services you are requiring and timelines.  We will then organise a time with you for a site inspection and our recommendations for your move.

STEP 2: Comprehensive Quote

We will provide you with a personalized and detailed quote, outlining all of the relevant services for your situation and their associated costs. We can also help organise removalists and any other trades to prepare your house for settlement.

STEP 3: Work Begins

Once our quote has been approved we will organise a time and date with you to begin work on the property. We will discuss with you a timeline for work to be completed.

STEP 4: Sit Back and Relax

Let us assist you with as much or as little as you need to aid you in a stress free moving process.
