Cheap Interstate Movers
Verified49 reviews
Cheap Interstate Movers is under new ownership as of 25 January 2024.
Highly recommend this company. The booking team explained everything clearly and the movers were efficient and polite. No hidden costs and the delivery was faster than expected
Used these guys for a move from Albury to Adelaide and honestly couldn't be happier. I was a bit worried because their prices were so much lower than other quotes, but the crew was professional and handled all my furniture with care. No hidden fees and they actually showed up on time. Highly recommend if you're looking to save some money without the headache Show details
I hired this company expecting a professional service, but unfortunately my experience was very disappointing. [Name Removed] sent a worker who did not seem to know how to do the job properly. What should have been a 2-hour job ended up taking around 6 hours, after there had already been a last-minute cancellation. My husband even had to step in… Read more
and help because they didn’t know how to arrange the furniture.
To make matters worse, items were damaged during the process, and my couch was left dirty because nothing was covered for protection. At the time of payment, we were told the damaged items would be compensated. Since then, our emails have gone unanswered and the phone number provided is not working.
Due to the poor workmanship, lack of care, and no follow-up or accountability, I would not recommend this company to others.

Good service. Team was polite and worked fast. My furniture reached Sydney in good condition. Price was decent compared to others
Honestly impressed with these guys. They turned up on time, wrapped my furniture properly, and delivered everything sooner than I expected. No damage, no drama — just a smooth interstate move. I’d use them again for sure
We moved from Melbourne to Adelaide over the weekend and honestly can’t thank Cheap Interstate Movers enough. The boys picked up all our stuff on Saturday morning and had everything safely delivered by Sunday afternoon — right on time like they promised. They were super careful with our furniture, wrapped everything properly, and even helped us… Read more · 1
set up a few big items when unloading. Really polite, hardworking guys and easy to deal with from start to finish. The price was fair too — no hidden surprises.
I promised the boys I’d leave a review because they truly deserved it. Thanks again team, you made our move stress-free and smooth. Highly recommend

I used Cheap Interstate Movers for my move from Geelong to Albury in July, and I’m very happy with the service. The booking was straightforward and communication was clear from the start. The team arrived on time, worked quickly, and took good care of my furniture and boxes. Everything was wrapped properly and delivered without any damage. The… Read more · 1
pricing was reasonable compared to other quotes I received, and there were no hidden charges. The whole process was stress-free, and I would happily use them again for another interstate move.
Positive reviews
Needed to move 2 boxes from Melbourne to Cairns on very short notice. I contacted over 100 companies and no one helped. Cheap Interstate Movers were the only ones who stepped in and got it done. Really grateful for their help
Moved from Melbourne to Perth using two 20-foot containers and the team handled everything really well. They loaded it all safely, kept me updated, and everything reached Perth without any issues. Good service and no stress at all
Used Cheap Interstate Movers for my move and they did a solid job. The boys worked quickly, kept everything safe, and the whole move went smoother than I expected. Really happy with the service
Negative reviews
Guys, it's not worth it. Don't risk using this company. Even if they offer you free service, do yourself a favor and don't use them ever. Cheap interstate movers is a one man army, the owner sits in India and subcontracts jobs to any cheapest mover he can find to do your job. If you book this guy, be prepared for the truck to arrive 30 hours late,… Read more
loose your goods in transit, glasses to break, and goods to be damaged. The guy replies back to the reviews on ProductReview.com.au about new ownership, etc. is all nonsense.
I would hate to write a negative review about a business however I couldn't resist following a shocking and terrible experience with this mover.
The company has no customer service. The images of truck with their own signage is all nonsense as all jobs are subcontracted. The movers he subcontracts to are completely unprofessional. We lost a bed frame drawer in transit and some goods got damaged, scratched and glasses broken. No compensation, apologies, empathy or even response from the guy. The job for 3 bed from Melb to Bris was booked for 16th Jan, I called them and confirmed on 14th Jan all is on track and the guy was confident that the truck is scheduled to pick up our goods on 16th Jan. On the day, no one turned up, no message, no call, no email. Upon my few call attempts, the owner sitting in India informed me the truck will be late by 2 hours. Finally the truck arrived after waiting 30 hours and can you imagine their movers took 8.5 hours to load our 23 square meters!! Height of unprofessionalism. The subcontractors when arrived, confirmed that they were always booked for 17th Jan afternoon by the company for this job and not 16th Jan morning, although the company booked with me for 16th Jan morning. When we received the goods, the glasses were broken, a whole bed frame drawer was (and is still) missing, goods and fridge were damaged, washing machine was damaged and scratched and much, much more. Upon contacting them and requesting for compensation, there's no response from the guy and unfortunately I'll be taking this matter to VCAT through my solicitors.
Even if they offer you free service, do yourself a favor and don't use them ever. If there's any other customer who would like to join me while I'm taking this company to VCAT, please contact me on 0432199455.

Brisbane to Melbourne nightmare. The truck arrived at the Brisbane pickup location 32 hours after the scheduled time. On original scheduled day, no calls or notifications I eventually had a call returned after the original pickup window, [Name Removed] advised the delay was due to mechanical issues on the Sunshine Coast. However, when the truck… Read more
finally arrived at 8:00 pm the following day, the crew appeared exhausted and explained that the driver had driven from Melbourne that morning and still had three drop-offs to complete before my pickup. Cheap Interstate Movers hires local jockeys in whichever city they are in.
To be clear, on pick up the local jockeys themselves worked extremely hard and deserve credit. While the driver had a rest in cabin. Unfortunately, the same issues continued on delivery. My drop-off was scheduled for Monday according to [Name Removed] after the delayed arrival, yet the truck did not arrive until 5:30 pm on Tuesday.
[Name Removed], your one and only driver for long distance hauls who is still on P Plates is clearly being overworked, and customers are being over-promised unrealistic timelines, followed by inconsistent explanations. This business approach needs serious review. You cost me much more than the mere $100 discount offered. Thus this review.
I would not recommend Cheap Interstate Movers unless you are prepared to wait days beyond agreed schedules, if and when they eventually arrive.
Where do I start this this review. The initial process of getting a quote - no issues, deposit paid and then it went south. They didn't turn up when they said they would, didn't answer multiple calls then when a friend called from a different number as they were ignoring mine, they claimed their truck had broken down and would need to do it the… Read more
following day. This was great, given I had nowhere to sleep as everything was packed. Fast forward to the next day and again they were late, but at least they showed up albeit 4 hours late. The truck was loaded (couldn't fit everything on despite it actually being less than what I had been quoted for), but not before they put holes in the gyprock walls of my rental (more on that later). Once loaded I set on my merry way to SA and the delivery was arranged for the Friday. On the Friday, I had heard nothing so tried to ring multiple times ... no answer and on checking their website, it had been taken down. I thought I had been scammed of by $200k worth of belongings, only to then get onto someone who said the truck would be a day later (so now the Saturday) as they had had to move my gear to another truck to accommodate a seconds person's property. It was now starting to make sense - they were putting in two loads to halve their costs - I have no issue with this - but they were so cagey about it it was disgusting. Another day passes and I was set for my gear and I started to get messages demanding payment. I wouldn't pay the balance until the truck arrived (fair enough given what had been going on). They couldn't have cared less and the truck still hadn't arrived, now arriving on the Sunday. I convinced them to meet me and I would transfer the funds on their arrival in front of them on the Sunday morning. Truck arrives and unloaded. Absolute shambles, they'd packed it wrong and I was worried about the damage. Finally got my property and off they went. I am left with a $1500 bill out of my bond for the damage they caused - they are still not returning calls. They said they would bring the 8 tubs of gear they couldn't get on the truck on their next trip. I won't hold my breath.
My advice is you get what you pay for. This mob are a disgusting company who, once they have your money, will hold you to ransom. Don't believe me, check Product Review for real reviews of this mob as the ones on here MUST be dodgey as there is no way they would be a 4.7. They are not trustworthy, they are cowboys and they are the reason this industry needs regulation.

DO NOT TRUST! A SCAM!! Was called an hour before delivery saying truck was broken down, then after digging deeper and reading these reviews, and noticing each time I called the phone had to click through I realised. After calling to request a refund for my $220 deposit, I was met with aggression and refusal, given I had never received any service… Read more
from the company and the truck failed to turn up shocked me. After calling many times I only ever spoke to the same person, Sam. He could never connect me to another colleague and still became abrasive and said the system was down when I once again asked for a refund.
