The MetroMovers Fair charging system

At MetroMovers, we believe in a pricing system that is fair to our customers.

No hidden costs.

We provide either a Fixed Amount or Hourly Rate pricing system. The most popular and cost effective  is the Hourly Rate system. All our prices are inclusive of Gst and we charge from and back to the nearest depot to your moving-from and moving-to addresses. MetroMovers has many depots points located throughout Melbourne to make your move as cost effective as possible.

We use the Google mapping system to work out the quickest possible time to get from our depot to you and to back to our depot. This is worked out at our office prior to your move and is charged as a fixed cost of the hourly rate.

This is a win-win for our customers as you don’t pay for any travel delays that may be caused by peak hour, or traffic congestion caused by accidents or simply if our driver has trouble finding your address.

What the competition is doing;

All Accredited Removals companies as members of AFRA ( The Australian Furniture Removals Association) charge from depot to depot as they are required by law to pay full wages to their Removalists from depot to depot. Some of these companies operate from a single depot and the travel costs can work out quite expensive if your home or office is far from their depot location.

MetroMovers is an accredited member of AFRA and we have the added convenience to you of having many depot points located throughout Melbourne to keep your travel costs as low as possible.

Some non-accredited removals companies only charge from door to door. This is usually coupled with the fact that they only pay their removalists from door to door. This is an illegal practice for the Transport Industry wage award rates.

Some companies charge additional amounts that are only disclosed on trhe day of your move. These charges may include; toll fees, fuels surcharges, difficult access or stair surcharges.
