Professional Packing and Unpacking Services - Expert Packers and Movers
Packing and unpacking are the parts of a move that take the most time and cause the most worry. Moving Champs takes both jobs off your hands. Our trained packers come to your home with all the boxes and materials, pack each room with care, and label every box so your move stays organised - then, at the new place, we unpack you room by room and take the empty cartons away. Whether you want us to pack the whole house, just the kitchen and fragile items, or unpack you at the other end, we fit the service to what you need.
We are a packing and unpacking company that works right across Australia. As professional packers and movers, we handle homes and offices of every size, from a studio apartment to a large family house. You can book packing and unpacking on its own, or add it to your house removals so one team packs, moves, and unpacks you.
Good packing is what keeps your belongings safe on the road. Boxes that are packed too loosely let items shift and break, and boxes that are too heavy split at the bottom. Our packers know how to fill each box to the right weight, cushion the fragile things, and seal and stack them so they travel well. With 8 years of packing and moving experience behind us, we have packed thousands of homes across Australia. To book, call 0468 001 438 or email info@movingchamps.com.au.
Our Packing and Unpacking Service Options
Not every move needs the same amount of help. Choose the option that suits your time and budget:
Full Packing Service
Our team packs your whole home from start to finish. We bring every box and all the materials, pack each room, wrap the fragile items, and label everything. This is the best choice if you are short on time or moving a large home. You do nothing but point us to what stays and what goes.
Partial Packing Service
You pack the simple rooms yourself and we take care of the rest, usually the kitchen, the wardrobe, and anything fragile or awkward. Partial packing keeps your cost down while still protecting the items that are hardest to pack well.
Fragile-Only Packing
Some things are worth leaving to a professional. We pack just your artwork, glassware, mirrors, china, and electronics using the right boxes and padding, so the delicate items are safe even if you handle the rest.
Unpacking Service
Packing is only half the job. At the new home, our team unpacks your boxes room by room, puts things where you want them, and takes all the empty cartons and paper away, so you settle in faster without the clutter. Book unpacking on its own or alongside your packing.
What Is Included in Our Packing and Unpacking Service?
All the materials come with the service. You do not need to buy or collect anything. Every packing job includes:
Double-walled boxes in small, medium, and large sizes.
Wardrobe (porta-robe) cartons so clothes travel on their hangers.
Butcher's paper and bubble wrap to wrap and cushion breakables.
Packing tape and edge protection to seal and strengthen boxes.
Specialist boxes for TVs, mirrors, and framed pictures.
Room-by-room labelling so every box is marked for the right room.
Unpacking and carton removal at the new home, on request.
Moving Champs is a licensed and registered moving company (ABN 98 683 754 001). If you would like extra cover for high-value items, we recommend arranging your own transit insurance through a third-party provider before moving day.
How Many Boxes Do You Need to Pack a House?
This is the first question most people ask. Use the guide below as a starting point. The real number depends on how much you own and how much you declutter first.
Home size
Approx. boxes needed
Studio / 1-bedroom unit
20–45
2-bedroom home
30–55
3-bedroom house
45–70
Per room (rule of thumb)
~10 small, 8 medium, 5 large
Two tips that save money and stress: declutter before you pack and you can cut the box count by 20 to 40 percent, and always keep a 10 to 15 percent buffer so you do not run out of boxes halfway through. When you book a full packing service, we work all of this out for you and bring the right number of boxes.
Which Box Size for Which Items?
Packing the right things in the right box is what stops boxes from breaking or getting too heavy to lift safely. Here is how our packers use each size:
Box type
Best for
Small (heavy-duty)
Books, tools, tins, records – heavy items that stay light in a small box
Medium
Kitchenware, pantry items, toys, shoes
Large
Linen, pillows, doonas, lampshades – light but bulky items
Wardrobe / porta-robe
Hanging clothes, suits, dresses
Specialist (TV, mirror, picture)
Flat screens, framed art, mirrors, glass
A simple rule our team follows: heavy things go in small boxes, light things in large boxes. It keeps every box safe to lift and less likely to split.
How Our Packers and Movers Work - Step by Step Process
Our packers follow the same careful process on every job so nothing is missed:
Plan and Declutter
We plan the pack room by room and help you set aside anything you are not taking. Less to pack means fewer boxes and a lower cost.
Bring the Right Materials
We arrive with double-walled boxes in every size, butcher's paper, bubble wrap, tape, and wardrobe cartons, so we have the right box for every item.
Pack Room by Room
We pack one room at a time so nothing is missed and each box stays with the room it came from. This also makes unpacking far easier.
Wrap Fragile Items
Glass, crockery, artwork, and electronics are wrapped in paper and bubble wrap, then boxed with padding so they cannot move. Plates are packed on their edge, not flat, which is far safer.
Label Every Box
Each box is marked with its room and what is inside. Boxes with fragile items are marked clearly so they are handled and stacked with care.
What Do We Pack?
Our packers handle every room in the home and every kind of item, including the tricky ones:
Kitchen: plates, glasses, pots, appliances, and pantry items.
Bedrooms: clothes on hangers, bedding, shoes, and personal items.
Living areas: books, ornaments, lamps, and media.
Fragile and valuable: artwork, mirrors, china, vases, and antiques.
Electronics: TVs, computers, and sound systems, boxed with padding.
Office: files, documents, and equipment, packed and labelled for easy setup.

What is included in a professional packing and unpacking service in Australia?
A full packing and unpacking service includes trained packers, all the packing materials, wrapping of your breakables, and clear labelling on every box. Our team brings the boxes, butcher's paper, bubble wrap, tape, and wardrobe cartons, packs each room, and marks every box with the room it belongs to so unloading is quick. At the new home we can also unpack your boxes room by room and remove the empty cartons. Call 0468 001 438 for a free quote.
How many boxes do I need to pack my house?
As a guide, a one-bedroom home needs about 20 to 45 boxes, a two-bedroom home about 30 to 55, and a three-bedroom house about 45 to 70. A simple rule per room is roughly 10 small, 8 medium, and 5 large boxes. If you sort and declutter before packing, you can cut the box count by 20 to 40 percent. It is worth keeping a 10 to 15 percent buffer so you do not run out midway.
Do you offer both full and partial packing?
Yes. Full packing means our team packs your whole home from start to finish. Partial packing means you pack the easy rooms yourself and we handle the kitchen, fragile items, and anything awkward. We also offer fragile-only packing for artwork, glass, mirrors, and electronics. Tell us what you need when you book and we will match the service to it. Call 0468 001 438.
Do you provide the packing materials in Australia?
Yes. All materials are included in our packing service. We bring double-walled boxes in several sizes, butcher's paper, bubble wrap, packing tape, and wardrobe cartons for hanging clothes, plus specialist boxes for TVs, mirrors, and framed pictures. You do not need to buy anything separately. If you would like extra cover for high-value items, you can arrange your own transit insurance through a third-party provider.
How much do packing and unpacking services cost in Australia?
There is no flat price for packing and unpacking, we quote each job. The cost depends on the size of your home, the number of rooms, the level of service you choose (full, partial, or fragile-only, and whether you want unpacking too), and the materials used. A studio or one-bedroom home takes far less time than a four-bedroom house. There are no hidden fees. Call 0468 001 438 or request a free quote for an exact figure.

Trustworthy Australian Movers: Nationally Certified for Your Relocation Needs
The two really nice fellas who moved our fridge did a wonderful job. Their customer service was excellent and as challenging as the day was for them with a truck with issues, they were happy, polite and very friendly. We'd happily use Moving Champs again. Many thanks.
The Oliphants
Moving Champs was able to move one bulky item for us with only a couple of days' notice and at a competitive price. The removalists were incredibly professional, taking care with both the item and the walls of our narrow hallway. Nik from the customer sales team was also incredibly patient with fielding our questions on the day of the move. Thanks so much for your assistance!
Amanda Wu
If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy moving company, Moving Champs is the one. I'd absolutely hire them again and recommend them to anyone needing a hassle-free move!
Taylor Elias
Great service. I contacted Moving Champs for an online quote and received a callback within 15 minutes. The estimate I was initially provided was accurate. Ekam and Dogra were our removalists and worked very hard to get the job completed on time.
Mark Rix
Had a great experience today with the Moving Champs crew. They shifted my two-bedroom apartment (flights of stairs included) from Cheltenham to Kew, all in 6 hours. Communication was great and the guys worked hard to ensure everything was undamaged. Thanks again!
Amy Denahy
We had a great experience moving today with the Moving Champs team. They were efficient and very polite. Very happy with the service. Highly recommended.
