Plan with confidence. Avoid surprises. Get a realistic quote tailored to your move.
Organising a move, whether it’s residential or commercial, can be stressful when you’re not sure what’s involved. That’s why Move On Removals offers no-obligation on-site assessments to help you plan your move properly and avoid last-minute complications.
Whether you’re moving house, relocating an office, or need support with packing or storage, an assessment helps us prepare properly,so you can move with confidence.
Assessments can be carried out in-person or virtually via video call for speed and convenience.
Why Book an On-Site Assessment?
Every move is unique. By conducting an assessment before moving day, we can:
- Provide a more accurate and realistic quote
- Allocate the right vehicle and number of movers
- Identify potential access challenges such as staircases, lifts, tight driveways or parking restrictions
- Plan for fragile, bulky or high-value items that require special handling
- Recommend optional extras like packing services, storage, or packing materials
It’s a small step that helps avoid delays, damage, and unnecessary stress, ensuring your move goes smoothly from the very start.
What Is The On-Site Assessment Process?
We keep the process of arranging an on-site assessment simple:
- Book a time that suits you
- Join a short video call with one of our experienced team members, or for an in-person visit, meet with our team member on the day of the assessment.
- Walk us through your space using your mobile device/tablet, or in person
- Discuss your move and ask any questions

This quick assessment allows us to personalise your move so that it fits your timeframe, budget and property layout.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How much does an on-site assessment cost?
A virtual assessment is free. In-person assessment fees vary depending on your location:
- Within 10km of our base – $85 + GST
- Within 20km – $105 + GST
If you’re unsure whether you fall within these zones, feel free to contact us and we’ll confirm your options.
Can I choose a video assessment instead of an in-person visit?
Yes! Most clients opt for a virtual walk-through via Zoom or phone video call. It’s quick, convenient and gives us all the information we need to provide a detailed quote.
Do I need to be at the property for the virtual assessment?
Yes, someone needs to be onsite to show our team member the layout of the property and volume of items.
How long does it take?
Most virtual assessments take 5 to 10 minutes, while in person assessments may be slightly longer depending on the property. We’ll follow up with a quote soon after.
What if I need extra help with packing or storage?
No problem. During the assessment, we can discuss add-on services such as packing, unpacking, or secure storage. We’ll tailor a plan to suit your needs.
Can I reschedule if my plans change?
Absolutely. Just let us know and we’ll find another time that suits you.
