Removalists Southport
Apartment towers along the light-rail corridor, Broadwater units, and the older homes on the Ashmore and Benowa side. Our depot is ten minutes south on Paradise Island, so the truck rolls in early and the clock starts at your door, not at our yard. Starting from $169/hr for 2 movers + truck, with the call-out and any specialty items in your written quote.
The Gold Coast CBD
Southport is the civic heart of the Coast, and it moves like three suburbs in one. The CBD towers along Scarborough and Nerang Street sit right on the light-rail line, with service lifts, loading docks and tight street parking. A block back, the Broadwater edge is full of older units and retiree apartments. Further out toward Ashmore and Benowa you are into post-war houses and Queenslanders on stumps.
We move in and out of all of it. For the towers we book the service lift and the dock with the building manager ahead of the day, and we take early-morning slots so the truck is loaded before Australia Fair, Chinatown and the light-rail crossings get busy. For the older houses we bring stair-runners and floor protection for the timber and the stumps.
The rentals around Griffith University, TAFE and the Gold Coast University Hospital turn over fast, so we are used to quick unit-to-unit moves on a tight lease-changeover or settlement window.
What it usually costs
Indicative ranges based on average jobs at $169/hr.
2 to 4 hours. Common in the Broadwater units and the CBD studios along Scarborough Street. Furnished or unfurnished — say so when you book.
4 to 7 hours. The bulk of Southport jobs — CBD tower apartments and the two- and three-bedroom houses toward Ashmore. Lift bookings and access planning included.
7 to 12 hours. Bigger family homes on the Benowa side, and combined apartment-plus-storage moves. Heavier custom furniture handled by a 3-person team.
Indicative ranges based on average Southport jobs at $169/hr. Final price depends on contents, access at both ends, and travel between addresses. Request a fixed quote and we will reply the same day.
Same standard, every job
We book the service lift and loading dock with the building manager ahead of the day, so you are not stuck rescheduling at 7am.
Beds, dining tables, modular sofas, wardrobes — pulled apart at the pickup, rebuilt at the new place. No extra charge.
Older Southport houses on stumps and walk-up units mean stairs. Standard stairs are never a separate line item — we just plan the time.
Floors covered, doorways padded, every item wrapped in moving blankets and shrink film before it leaves the door.

Southport FAQ
Yes. The towers along Scarborough Street, Nerang Street and the Broadwater edge nearly all need a service-lift booking and a refundable bond. Tell us the building when you book and we coordinate the lift and the loading dock with the manager so the truck is not left waiting.
The G:link light rail runs straight through the Southport CBD along Scarborough and Nerang Street, and parking near Australia Fair and the Chinatown blocks is tight. We book Southport moves for early-morning slots where we can, so we load and roll before the CBD traffic and the retail crowd build up.
Yes. Plenty of Southport is still post-war houses and Queenslanders on stumps, with stairs and timber floors. We bring our own stair-runners and floor protection, and standard stairs never cost extra.
Yes. The rentals around Griffith University, TAFE and the Gold Coast University Hospital turn over constantly, especially at semester breaks. We do plenty of quick unit-to-unit moves in that pocket and can work to a tight settlement or lease-changeover window.
Most 2-bed apartment moves run 4 to 6 hours, which puts them in our Medium tier, $695 to $1250. Final price depends on the contents, the lift booking window and the access at the new place. Send us the details and we will come back with a fixed quote the same day.
Yes. They are all a few minutes from the Southport CBD and we run moves between them constantly. The short hop between neighbouring suburbs does not push you into a higher tier — the clock stops when we finish unloading at the new place.
