Removalists Coombs

In Coombs, six in ten homes are townhouses or apartments, and many young families are already outgrowing them. A typical move here means internal stairs, a complex with tight visitor parking, or a lift on John Gorton Drive. As removalists in Coombs, our own crew plans for all of that. You get one free written quote, charged hourly, with travel, fuel and insurance included.

About Expert Movers: The Team Behind Your Coombs Move

Expert Movers isn’t a marketplace or booking app. We’re a removal company with our own staff, trucks and storage facility. In more than 10 years we’ve done over 5,000 moves, with a 4.9 review average.

The person you speak to when you call is a mover, and they’ll be the one leading your job. Nobody hands your booking to a subcontractor or hires day labour for the day. We train every crew member in safe lifting and careful truck loading.

Coombs 2611: Homes, Streets and Moving-Day Access

Coombs lies 13 km or so west of Canberra’s centre, in the Molonglo Valley. Building began around 2011, so nearly every home is under 15 years old. John Gorton Drive runs through the suburb, and Wright, Molonglo, Duffy, Holder and Weston are its neighbours.

What matters on moving day:

  • Medium-density living. About 35% of homes are townhouses and 28% are apartments. Many townhouses have the garage downstairs and the living areas above, so most furniture goes up or down a flight.
  • Apartment buildings. Many sit along John Gorton Drive. Lift bookings, loading areas and low basement car parks all affect loading.
  • Complex parking. Townhouse complexes often have narrow internal roads and only a few visitor spots.
  • Families on the move up. The median age is 30, and over half of families are couples with children. Many move from a townhouse into a bigger house nearby.

Local Removalists in Coombs: Services for Newer Homes

Townhouse Moves

Townhouse stairs here are usually narrow. We pad the walls and banisters where pieces could knock them, carry beds and robes in parts, and rebuild everything in the right room. Mention any gate code or visitor bay so we don’t block neighbours.

Apartment Moves

For an apartment move, we ask about the lift, the loading area and the car park height before we quote. A one or two-bedroom apartment usually suits two movers and our 3 or 4.5-tonne truck.

Upsizing to a Family House

Moving from a townhouse into a four-bedroom house often means new furniture arriving too. We can collect a new bed or dining set on the way. If your new home isn’t ready, your things can wait in our storage facility.

Every Service We Offer

  • House removals: first homes, bigger homes and everything between
  • Furniture removals: a new lounge from the shop or a room’s worth
  • Office removals: a home office moving into a spare bedroom
  • Packing and unpacking: we box it all, or just the kitchen
  • Single item removals: a fridge up a townhouse stair
  • Bed removals: cots, bunks and queens, rebuilt on arrival
  • Furniture assembly and disassembly: new flat-pack put together for you
  • Man with a van: a small apartment or a handful of boxes
  • Two men and a truck: the right fit for most Coombs townhouses
  • Piano removals: uprights strapped to a proper trolley
  • Pool table removals: dismantled, moved and set level
  • Heavy item removals: home gym gear, safes and BBQs
  • Antique removals: old family pieces in extra wrapping
  • Bathtub removals: old tubs out during a bathroom refit
  • Storage: a safe place between settlement and keys

Moving Around the Molonglo Valley

Our movers in Coombs often do short trips to Wright, Denman Prospect, Molonglo and Whitlam, or over to Weston Creek. Moves anywhere in Canberra are welcome too.

Coombs Moving Timeline: Four Weeks to Moving Day

Four weeks out: Book your move date. If you’re in an apartment, ask the building manager how lift bookings work.

Three weeks out: Measure the new rooms and the stairs. Check that big pieces will fit.

Two weeks out: Start packing rooms you don’t use daily. Heavy things go in small boxes, since most Coombs moves involve a stair.

One week out: Confirm the visitor bay, gate code or loading spot with us. Book the lift for both buildings if both are apartments.

The day before: Defrost the fridge and pack a bag with chargers, medicine and the kids’ bedtime things.

"I needed 3 commercial fridges picked up from Abbotsford and delivered to Craigieburn. Expert movers were extremely professional and with me every step of the way. They sent all their information through the WhatsApp and a breakdown of prices. Once I paid I got a receipt and confirmation of booking and a reference no. On the day of pick up the drivers personally called to confirm time of arrival as well as time there time of arrival. I recommend using this company as they were really thorough and assisted every step of the way. A really easy and friendly company to deal with. I will definitely be using this company again.
