Melbourne Western Suburbs Removalists
Moving is stressful enough without your removalists getting their truck stuck in a tight cul-de-sac out west on the day. We’ve moved hundreds of families to, from and around Melbourne’s western suburbs since 2017, making us as local as you can get.
Reviews
Amazing service from Mohammed and Mark at Host Movers. They were professional, friendly, punctual, and handled everything with great care. The whole moving process was smooth and stress-free, and they worked efficiently from start to finish.
Really impressed with their attitude and attention to detail. I would definitely recommend Mohammed, Mark, and the Host Movers team to anyone looking for reliable movers. Thanks again for the great service!
These guys did an outstanding job! I've used their service twice now and both experiences were excellent. They handled all of my belongings with great care, including dismantling and reassembling the furniture professionally. Everything arrived safely and the team was friendly, efficient and reliable. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a stress free move!
I recently used this moving service and honestly couldn’t be more impressed. From the very first interaction, their team was professional, responsive, and genuinely helpful. They showed up right on time, handled everything with care, and worked efficiently without cutting corners.
What really stood out was how respectful and organized they were. Fragile items were packed securely, furniture was handled like it actually mattered, and nothing was damaged in the process. They also kept great communication throughout the move, which made the whole experience stress-free.
Moving can be chaotic, but these guys made it feel smooth and easy. If you’re looking for reliable, hardworking, and trustworthy movers, I’d absolutely recommend them without hesitation.
Local matters
Plenty of Melbourne removalists will drive out to the western suburbs. Ours start there. With depots in the inner city and the west, your crew isn’t starting the day an hour away from your front door.
We know what moving here actually involves. The narrow streets and unfinished kerbs of the new estates in Tarneit, Truganina and Williams Landing. The tight staircases and no side access of Point Cook townhouses. And the older homes in Yarraville, Seddon and Williamstown with nothing but the front door and a narrow laneway to work with. We’ve navigated it hundreds of times, so you can be confident we’re prepared for your move.
Service areas
Starting from our home base in Truganina, we move households and offices across the whole western corridor and beyond.
Whether you’re staying in the west or relocating across the Melbourne metropolitan area, we’ll make your move hassle-free.
Pricing
The same rates apply across Melbourne with no zone surcharges. A man and a truck costs just $120 an hour, with a two-hour minimum. For most Melbourne moves, two or three professional movers and bigger trucks make things easier. And if you'd rather not watch the clock at all, we'll quote you a fixed price instead.
You're charged from the moment we arrive until we leave your new space, plus a standard, 30-minute travel charge.

How we work
Cleaning up the old place is much harder with trolley marks and scratches, so we start each job by covering doorways and floors. Then, every large item is carefully wrapped in moving blankets to keep them safe. Blankets, trolleys and straps come with every job, at no extra charge.
Our 4.5 and 5 tonne trucks are equipped with a 600kg tailgate lifter, while our 6 tonne and larger trucks have a 1,200kg ramp, so heavy and awkward pieces are lifted in properly, not wrestled.
Our focus is on care over speed. We pack your belongings in tightly to keep them safe against movement and damage on the trip.
Services
From studio flats to large family homes, anywhere across Melbourne. We handle the stairs, the lifts and the laneways.
House moves →Small offices, retail fit-outs and warehouse moves, scheduled around your trading hours to limit your downtime.
Office relocation →One couch, a marketplace pickup, or a delivery run for an item that’s too big for you on your own – starting at $82.50, including GST.
Furniture moving →We can also look after your packing and unpacking, piano moving and end-of-lease cleaning, managing your move from end to end.
The process
Tell us what you’re moving and where. We’ll come back with an hourly rate or fixed price – whichever suits you better.
We confirm your booking, your truck size and your crew, and tell you how to prepare for move day.
When we arrive, we’ll wrap your bigger items and load your belongings onto the truck, packing them in safe and tight.
We’ll leave your items in your new home in the rooms they belong, ready for unpacking, and reassemble items like beds for you.

Yes. Send us a short video walkthrough of your place, or a list of what needs moving, and we’ll come back with one price for the whole job. Here’s how to film your walkthrough.
Usually, yes. It depends on the day and the size of the move. Weekends and the end of the month book out first, so a mid-week date at short notice is usually easier than a Saturday.
Call us on 0450 310 327 and we’ll tell you straight away if we have availability.
Yes. We have a depot on Forsyth Road in Truganina, and a second one in the inner city. Between the two sites, we cover the whole metropolitan area.
Yes. Host Movers holds Goods in Transit (GIT) and Public Liability insurance. Our $10M public liability insurance and our goods in transit insurance cover property damage and loss or damage to your belongings during the move. However, damage caused by poor packing or incorrect labelling is generally not covered. If you’re packing yourself, make sure all items are securely packed and appropriately labelled to keep them safe and reduce loss.
If you require further protection for high value items, please contact us to arrange additional insurance coverage.
We take every precaution to avoid damage to both your property and belongings, but the insurance is good additional protection in case something goes wrong on the day.
Some moving companies use subcontractors or third-party workers, which can lead to inconsistent service. At Host Movers, you’ll only ever work with experienced professionals who have been trained to meet our high standards.
