The Greater Hobart region covers Hobart and the councils around it, from the city and Battery Point out through Glenorchy, Kingborough and the Derwent Valley. Some of these towns are a long drive apart. Moving Champs helps people move all across the region. We move homes and offices of any size, from a few items to a full house or office. You can book us for the whole move, packing, loading, driving, unloading and setting up, or just the part you need help with.
Moving Champs has been moving Australians since 2018. We are a licensed and registered moving company (ABN 98 683 754 001), so you always know who is handling your move. Every truck has a tail lift for heavy items, and we wrap and pad everything before we load it. Tell us what you are moving and where it is going, and we will send you a clear quote with no pressure. Call 0468 001 438 or ask for a free quote online.
Local moves are charged by the hour, so you only pay for the time the work takes. A man with a van starts at $120 an hour and is good for a few items or a small unit. Two movers with a truck start at $130 an hour for a house move. Fuel, gear and a tail lift are included, with no call-out fee and no fuel levy. These are starting prices. The final price depends on how many movers you need, how much you are moving, the stairs and access at both ends, and the drive between towns. Moving off the island? Interstate moves cross Bass Strait by sea and are priced by the cubic metre, from $150 per cubic metre, so you only pay for the space your things take.
The Greater Hobart region sits in Tasmania's south, on the Derwent, so an interstate move is not just a long drive. Your things have to cross Bass Strait by sea to reach the mainland. That extra step is why we pack and price these moves differently from a short local move.
We move people into the Greater Hobart region from the mainland, whether they are settling in town or further out, and we move people out of the region to the rest of the country when work or the plan changes. Wherever in the region 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.
Interstate moves 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. If you would rather pack yourself, we can drop off a self-pack container for you to load in your own time before it goes on the boat.
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 going to the same address 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.
A move across Bass Strait depends on the sailing and how full the load is. 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.
Not every local move in the Greater Hobart region is a short one. Towns in the region can be a fair drive apart, so even a local move can take a while, and we plan for that. Local moves are charged by the hour. The rate depends on the truck you need, a man with a van for a few items or a unit from $120 an hour, or a truck with two movers for a house. Trucks go from a 3-tonne for a one-bedroom up to a 10-tonne for a big family home ($130 to $199 an hour). Fuel, gear and a tail lift are in every rate, with no call-out fee and no fuel levy.
Heavier specialty pieces, pianos, pool tables, spas and bathtubs, start at $350 an hour because they need extra boards, straps and crew, and end-of-lease and other cleaning is quoted on the size and state of the property. Whatever the job and however far the drive between towns, you get the price before the truck is booked.
We have been moving homes and offices since 2018. We have handled tight unit stairs, older weatherboard homes with steps, big office jobs, and everything in between.
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 the truck, and strap everything down so it doesn't shift. On a sea crossing to the mainland, that 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 the Greater Hobart region.

Yes. As well as local jobs around the Greater Hobart region, we move people to and from the mainland. Because Tasmania is an island, an interstate move crosses Bass Strait by sea. These moves are charged by the cubic metre, from $150 per cubic metre, so you only pay for the space your belongings take. You can also choose a self-pack container. The final cost depends on the total volume and the destination, and we give you a delivery window rather than a guaranteed date.
No. Moving Champs does not provide goods-in-transit insurance for your move in the Greater Hobart region. We are a licensed and registered moving company (ABN 98 683 754 001) and have been moving Australians since 2018, and our crew wraps, pads and straps every load. Because your belongings are valuable, 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. When we have a truck or a van free, we take same-day and next-day moves across the Greater Hobart region, 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. We cannot promise a same-day spot every time, but you will always get an honest answer.
We provide all sized vehicles for your removals needs.
