How to choose well
- The key requirement. Look for FIDI/IAM accreditation and clear customs-handling experience for your destination.
- Reviews with specifics beat star counts. Look for reviews that mention your job type and how problems were handled — not just "good service".
- Itemised quotes only. A lump-sum quote is where surprises hide. Line items let you compare fairly across companies.
- Never pay fully upfront. Deposit, progressive payments, and a retention until the work is done and checked.

Cost of Moving Bulky Items
Moving a piano may cost an extra $150 to $800, although it can cost up to $2,500 extra if the movers need to lift the piano with a crane (extreme cases).
Heavy, bulky items take up extra space in the moving truck, and they are often hard to handle.
You can expect to pay more for bulky items such as:
| Type of Bulk Item | Estimated Price |
|---|---|
| Piano | $80 - $800 |
| Pool Tables | $450 - $1,000 |
| Sofas | $80 - $200 |
| Fridge | $80 - $150 |
| Wardrobe | $120 - $250 |

If you are looking to pack by yourself, here is an estimated cost of materials that you may require.
| Item | Cost | Quantity |
|---|---|---|
| Boxes | $2.5-$4 (from small to large sizes) | 20 |
| Shrinkwrap | $13 | 2 |
| Bubblewrap (20 ft) | $9/roll | 2 |

They usually allow boxes to be sent to your house directly with a transportation fee if you want to pack the items into a box by yourself. Some companies do buyback boxes that are still in good condition if you engage them for moving service – so do ask them!
If you are looking to move by yourself, you may require a vehicle rental and driver.
| Type | Cost | Size | Load Weight | Load Size | Size of Bed that Fits | Estimated Time of Loading/ Unloading |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Toyota Hiace Van | About $60 per hour with driver included | 2.5m (length) by 1.5m (width) by 1.25m (height) | Up to 1.06 ton of goods. | About 40 jumbo (59cm by 46cm by 55cm) boxes | A queen size bed will be able to fit in there. | 0.5h per load |
| 10 Ft Open Lorry | About $70 per hour with driver included | 3m (length) by 1.5m (width) by 1.8m (height) | Up to 1.5 ton of goods. | About 60 jumbo (59cm by 46cm by 55cm) boxes | A king size bed will be able to fit in there. | 45 mins per load |
| 14ft Box Covered Lorry | About $80 per hour with driver included | 4m (length) by 1.8m (width) by 2m (height) | Up to 2.5 ton of goods. | About 150 jumbo (59cm by 46cm by 55cm) boxes | 2 queen size beds will be able to fit in there. | 1h per load |
*At different timings (e.g. evening or night times), prices may be higher.
If you have items that exceed the size of the lorry, opt for the open lorry to manage those items.
Things to note:
- Do take note of both the size and the weight of the items. If the load is too heavy, the suspension of the lorry may get damaged, which may eventually result in a higher cost.
- Take note of the height limit of your loading area. Ensure that the pickup point and drop off point can fit the height of the lorry. If not, you will have to arrange for a smaller lorry.
How to choose well
- Licensing first. Check insurance coverage for transit damage, especially for valuable or fragile items.
- Get the quote itemised — men, hours, wrapping, dismantle/reassembly, and stair/long-carry charges — so nothing appears on moving day.
- Reviews with specifics beat star counts. Look for reviews that mention your job type and how problems were handled — not just "good service".
- Itemised quotes only. A lump-sum quote is where surprises hide. Line items let you compare fairly across companies.
- Never pay fully upfront. Deposit, progressive payments, and a retention until the work is done and checked.
