Moving Champs is a full-service removalist company covering the whole of Tasmania, from the south around Hobart to the north around Launceston and out to the north-west coast. We move households and businesses of every size, a studio apartment, a five-bedroom family home, a single fridge, or a full office fit-out, and we handle the entire job door to door: packing, loading, transport, unloading and reassembly at the other end. When you search for removalists in Tasmania, you want one team that turns up on time, quotes a clear price and treats your belongings like their own, and that is exactly what we do.
We have been moving Australians since 2018, more than eight years, and Moving Champs is a licensed and registered moving company (ABN 98 683 754 001), so you always know who is turning up at your door. The final cost of any move depends on the size of the load, the access at both ends, and where it is going, and you always get the price before you book. Tell us what you are moving and where it is going, and we will send you a free, no-obligation quote with a clear price and no pressure. Call 0468 001 438 or ask for a quote online to get started.
Our removalists work right across the island, not just the capital. We cover Greater Hobart and the Southern region, Launceston and the Northern region, and Mersey Lyell across the north-west and west coast, taking in Devonport and Burnie. Because Tasmania is an island, we do two kinds of moves here: local moves within the state, and moves that cross Bass Strait to or from the mainland. Wherever you are in Tasmania, there is a good chance we already run moves through your town, and if you are not sure we reach you, a quick call will confirm it.
Local moves are charged by the hour. A man with a van starts at $120 per hour for a quick local move, and two movers with a truck start at $130 per hour, with the fuel and equipment included and no call-out fee or fuel levy. Moves across Bass Strait to or from Tasmania are priced by the cubic metre instead, from $150 per cubic metre, so you only pay for the space your things take on the boat and truck. Every truck carries a hydraulic tail lift, and each item is wrapped and padded before it goes on, which matters on the long haul across the water, so your furniture arrives without a scratch.
Pick the region you are moving to or from. Greater Hobart and the Southern region cover the south of the state, the Northern region covers Launceston and the north, and Mersey Lyell covers the north-west and west coast. Local moves are charged by the hour at the same rates statewide, starting at $120 per hour for a man with a van, so where you are in Tasmania does not change the price.

Tasmania is an island, so a move to or from the state is not a drive, it is a sea crossing. Your furniture travels across Bass Strait by ship, then goes on a truck at the other end. This is a big move that many people put off because it feels hard to sort out. It does not have to be. We handle the whole trip, from your door in Tasmania to your new home on the mainland, or the other way around.
We move people into Tasmania from every mainland state, whether they are settling in the south around Hobart, the north around Launceston, or the north-west, and we move people out of Tasmania to the rest of the country when the job or the plan changes. Wherever in Tasmania you are heading to or leaving from, we cover it.
We measure what you are moving and give you a fixed price before you commit.
Door to door across Bass StraitMoves across Bass Strait are charged by the cubic metre, from $150 per cubic metre, not by the hour and not by the kilometre. We measure the volume of what you are moving, your furniture, your boxes, your whitegoods, and you pay for the space it takes. Because your goods cross the water by sea, this way of pricing keeps it simple and fair.
This is why we do not publish a single flat total. The final cost depends on the total volume and the destination, so a one-bedroom unit and a four-bedroom house crossing to the same place are two very different jobs. Send us a room-by-room list, or walk us through it on the phone, and we will measure it up and give you a fixed price before you commit.
If you want to keep the cost down and do the packing yourself, you can self-pack a container. You load your goods into a container in your own time, and we ship it across Bass Strait for you. It is a good fit if you are flexible on timing and happy to do the packing and loading.
If you would rather not lift a thing, our team packs the boxes, wraps the furniture, loads the container or truck, and unpacks at the other end. Most people land somewhere in the middle: we pack the kitchen and the fragile things, they do the wardrobes and the books.
A move across Bass Strait is planned around the ferry sailings, so it takes several days from pickup to delivery, longer than a drive between two mainland states. When you book we give you a delivery window rather than a promised date, and we tell you straight what to expect. We do not guarantee a delivery date.
For a local move within Tasmania, the size of the truck decides the hourly rate, so picking the right one keeps your move quick and your bill down. A few items or a small flat suit a man with a van, while a house move runs with two movers and a truck sized to the job. Each tier below includes two movers, the truck, the fuel and the equipment, with no call-out fee and no fuel levy:
Not sure which fits? A man with a van starts at $120 per hour and is the cheapest choice for small jobs, a single item, or a studio flat.
Tell us the rooms and the access at both ends and we will match the van, truck and crew to the job.
Specialty items need different gear, so pianos, pool tables, spas and bathtubs start at $350 per hour, which covers the boards, straps and crew to move them safely, and cleaning is quoted on the size and state of the property.
We have been moving homes and offices since 2018. We have handled tight unit stairs, older homes with steps, big office jobs, and Bass Strait crossings.
Moving Champs is a licensed and registered moving company (ABN 98 683 754 001), so you always know who is turning up and who is handling your things.
We cover your furniture in blankets and pads before it goes on, and strap everything down so it doesn't shift. On a sea crossing across Bass Strait, that care matters more than most places.
Every truck we run has a hydraulic tail lift. Fridges, pianos and heavy lounges go on and off the truck without being dragged up a ramp.
We give you a free quote with a clear price before you book. No surprise fees added on moving day, and no fuel levy at the end.
Tell us what you need to move and where it's going. We'll send you a clear price with no pressure, and answer any questions about moving to or from Tasmania.

A move to or from Tasmania is charged by the cubic metre, from $150 per cubic metre, so you only pay for the space your belongings take, not the distance. Because Tasmania is an island, your goods cross Bass Strait by sea, and the price covers that sea leg. We do not publish one flat total, because the final cost depends on the total volume and the destination, and a one-bedroom unit and a four-bedroom house are very different loads. You can also self-pack a container, load it yourself, and we ship it across the strait for you. Send us a room-by-room list and we will measure it up and give you a fixed price before you book.
Because your goods travel by sea across Bass Strait, a Tasmania move takes longer than a drive between two mainland states. The crossing itself is planned around the ferry sailings, and the pickup and delivery days are added on either side, so most moves take several days from collection to delivery. The exact time depends on the sailing schedule, the total volume and the destination. We give you a delivery window when you book rather than a promised date, and we do not guarantee a delivery date.
No. Moving Champs does not provide goods-in-transit insurance for your move in Tasmania. We are a licensed and registered moving company (ABN 98 683 754 001) and have been moving Australians since 2018, and our crew treats every load with care, wrapped, padded and strapped for the trip. Because your belongings are valuable and cross Bass Strait by sea, if you would like extra cover we recommend you arrange your own transit insurance through a third-party provider before moving day. Call 0468 001 438 if you would like to talk it through.
Often, yes, for local moves. When we have a truck or a van free in Tasmania, we take same-day and next-day local moves, from a single item with a man with a van to a full house or office. It comes down to how booked we are on the day, so call us early on 0468 001 438 and we will tell you straight away what we can fit in. Moves across Bass Strait need more notice because they are planned around the ferry sailings, but we will always give you an honest answer on the soonest we can do it.
We provide all sized vehicles for your removals needs.
