Thinking inside the box
Whilst other operations are scaling up, we remain loyal to our customer base and continue to offer boutique services to those in rental accommodation and 1-bedroom apartments. We sweat the small(er) stuff, so you don’t have to.
Student relocations
Let's be frank here, Melbourne is student central, and we want you to know we've got your back. We delight in helping you guys and gals get your place looking homely and moving from student digs to houseshare or storage.
Office removals
OK, we won't be helping Google move offices any time soon, be we could help you. Just reach out to us for a chat, and we'll see what we can do. Simples.
Furniture pick-ups
Everyone knows FB marketplace is a treasure trove of white-good appliance and settee-gold, and we're pumped to go get those pieces for you. You just let us know the when and where, and we'll be there.
Interstate transit
We know this move is a big one, so be assured in knowing we'll get your belongings to you in a professional and efficient manner. But please give us plenty of notice, it's a long way!
Why go with North Star?
The price is right and considerably fairer than some...
Travel time – The clock starts once we leave HQ, then stops upon our return. But you know the price already.
How we charge
My mother used to tell me that if you had to ask the price, you couldn’t afford it. But thankfully, this is one piece of my mum's wisdom I don’t adhere to. We want to talk, so we can tailor the costs to your needs. However, rules of thumb help, so use these prices as a guide:
4.5 Tonne Truck
Monday - Friday $120ph (1 person) $170ph (2 persons)
Saturday - Sunday $150ph (1 person) $190ph (2 persons)
Public Holiday $210ph (1 person) $260ph (2 persons)
About Us
This is an aged-old story of a boy, who meets a girl....wait! No it's not, it’s a tale about a Northern English bloke who'd lived in one too many rentals and found himself 2 days before Xmas in an empty apartment with no furniture (and no wifi!!).
Having then spent a not inconsiderable amount of time furnishing his apartment through various resale websites, we realised that people sometimes just need single items picked up, and didn’t want to pay more for the items transit than the item itself. Thus, North Star Removals appeared.
Thankfully, we have stayed true to our roots and kept ourselves catering for those same people that gave rise to our company. Thank you for letting us sweat the small(er) stuff, so you don't have to.

We get asked this alot

Our team focuses on the safe handling and transport of your belongings. For appliances like fridges, washers, dryers, and electronics, we recommend having them professionally disconnected before moving day. This ensures everything is ready to go and avoids any potential issues.
For everyone's safety, we cannot transport hazardous materials like gas bottles, petrol, oils, paints, or chemicals. Please arrange for these items to be moved separately or disposed of properly before moving day.
Yes, it's best to empty all drawers and cabinets beforehand. This makes items lighter and easier to move, minimizing the risk of damage. It also helps us move more efficiently.
Absolutely! Quality moving boxes are a great investment. They keep your belongings organized, speed up the moving process, stack easily, and are generally more space-efficient than plastic bins. New boxes offer the best protection and cleanliness.
We handle all your possessions with great care. However, for small valuables like wallets, phones, jewelry, keys, and passports, we recommend you keep them with you during the move for extra peace of mind.
Front-loading washing machines often require transit bolts for safe transport. Please consult your washing machine's manual or a qualified technician to install them. Our team isn't able to do this as each model has different requirements.Please note we are not responsible for any drum damage during the move if appropriate pins are not installed.
Please empty your fridge completely, wipe it down inside, and leave it unplugged with the doors open to air out. This prevents mould growth during the move.
The best way to protect your TV is in its original box with the foam inserts. If you don't have the original box, you can purchase TV moving boxes from storage facilities or moving supply stores. Please also have all cables and accessories disconnected and packed.
Plant pots, especially ceramic ones, can be quite bulky and heavy. To prevent damage, we can't stack anything on top of them, and they can't be stacked on top of other items. This means they take up more space than you might think. Please highlight this prior so we can plan as necessary.
Please wrap each fragile item (crockery, glassware, etc.) individually in packing paper or bubble wrap. Clearly mark the boxes as "fragile" and let our movers know which boxes contain these item
Pack heavier items (books, etc.) in smaller boxes and lighter items (linens, toys) in larger boxes. Ensure all boxes are securely taped shut.
Yes, we can assemble, reassemble and dismantle furniture. Please let us know about any furniture requiring this service when you book, so we can bring the necessary tools and plan accordingly. The cost for this is included in your overall quote.
While our movers are highly trained, accidents can happen. But we ensure we'll repair, replace, or compensate you for any damage caused by our team during handling or transport.
Book your move as soon as you're happy with our quote. It's a good idea to confirm your destination is ready for your arrival.
Travel time is the time it takes for our team to travel from our Fitzroy depot to your location and back. It's a separate charge, calculated based on your suburb's distance from Fitzroy.
We accept credit or debit card payments via Payid or bank transfer. Invoicing can also be provided. We also accept cash payments.
Yes, we can operate 7 days a week, however additional charges may apply for weekends and public holidays. For moves outside of normal office hours, you'll have the mover's direct contact number.
You can cancel without penalty up to 72 hours before your move date. Cancellations after this time will incur a fee.
Our movers are highly trained and we are covered by public liability, Carriers insurance and Commerical vehicle. However, we would still recommend seeking out removals insurance to guarantee piece of mind.
