With hundreds of kilometres separating the different Australian states, moving interstate can be a daunting and expensive endeavour.

I would like to express my sincere and heartfelt gratitude to Maria, Stephen and the team.Maria is beyond exceptional. She was a pleasure and joy to deal with from my 1st call, and despite having so many questions throughout my move, she never once made me feel like I was a bother, always understanding, patient and pleasant no matter what I asked. She guided me through things not even related to my move. Thank you, Maria!.Stephen also was extremely helpful even when I called at odd hours because I was stressed and didn't realise the day of week. Sorry Stepehen! But he too was so friendly and patient with me and went above and beyond in answering all my questions.The day of the move, the team of Drew, Corey and Tyler arrived on time. They worked super-fast, were so so careful with all my belongings and even stopped for a chat when I had questions. Thanks to them, all my stuff arrived safely as it was all so carefully and meticulously packed.On arrival, the team here came on time and carefully put all my belongings where I asked them to and in a very timely manner. The guys that came to deliver - my apologies for forgetting their names - were super careful as I was in a rental place, but not a scratch anywhere. So grateful.Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend Relocations WA to anyone who is moving interstate as my experience with them was better than 1st class!Thank you again Maria, Stephen and team.I wish you continued success.

Response from the ownerHi Himal,Appreciate the time taken to thank all my staff that dealt with your relocation from start to finish.We aim to assist in the relocation process and seems that we certainly achieved this with you .We sincerely wish you all th every best for you settling quickly.Thank you and take care Best RegardsSteve + Team

Relocations WA transported my household items from Perth WA to Sydney NSW, they done an absolutely amazing job from picking all of my stuff up with great care, to the quick turn around time of 2 weeks, and Steve was great to deal with over the phone. All my items arrived perfectly just the same way they left. Couldn’t recommend them enough and extremely fair pricing.

Response from the ownerHi Jack, appreciate your feedback and just remember when you plan on moving again please look us up. Appreciate the opportunity and I think you just left WA in time and the temperature outside is certainly warm over the last week.All the very best and take care.

When I decided to make the move interstate a few months ago from Sydney to Perth with my dog I honestly didn't know how I was going to do it due to having health concerns.Steve and Maria helped me organise my car to be transported from Sydney, pet travel and organise their removalist to collect my belongings and even provided me a service of the removalist packing my belongings. ( Best thing I ever did.). I was kept up to date with the arrangements every step of the way.Moving day came and everything went without a hidge. Steve kept me updated when my belongings arrived to their storage site and kept my belongings for 8 weeks while I looked for a rental property.When I had secured a property the removalists brought my belongings in and even came back to collect the boxes when I had unpacked.I honestly can not thank Steve, Maria and there team for providing me with an exceptional service and taking the stress out of such a big move.I would recommend Relocations WA in a heart beat to other people. Best removalists I have ever met. Keep up the amazing work. 👏Ruth.🥰

Response from the ownerHi Ruth, appreciate your time taken for the feedback - Thank you .It's nice to have happy clients that appreciate the extra efforts our crews and staff go through to assist with the relocation process.All the very best in settling in and trust you enjoy the Perth way.

I had Relocations WA move the furniture out of my mums house for me. They were amazing. I couldn’t have done it without them. I highly recommend this company & I’ll definitely use them again if I move in the future. There’s not enough stars to give them. I’d give them 10 stars if I could. I’m a very happy customer. 😊

Response from the ownerHi Michelle,Thank you for your feedback. The two guys that you had are a great asset to our business. Thank you and look forward to working with you in the future. Take CareBest Regards Steve

I can not thank Steve Blackwell and his team enough. Steve's long-standing experience in this industry shone through brilliantly.My goods were originally destined for Hervey Bay Qld, originating from Perth WA. Unfortunately, due to ill health, I had to return to the UK.I mentioned my conundrum to Steve. Not a problem. Without fuss and utilising his international capabilities, Steve sorted the lot. My goods were recalled from Brisbane, Qld to Perth, WA, and then on to my home address in the UK. I was kept informed of my goods progress at every step of the way.I received my goods today. Steve and his team are a credit to the industry. I can highly recommend Relocations WA for your next move. Whether it be interstate in Australia or internationally, Steve and the team will have you covered.All the best, Steve.Rob

Response from the ownerHi Rob,We appreciate your feedback and sincerely wish you all the very best for the future. Take Care and trust you settle quickly..Thank you again for your feedback.

Can't recommend Steve and his team enough. My partner and I completed a move from Melbourne to Perth - house things and 2 x vehicles. Steve was friendly, professional, super responsive and very helpful. All our things arrived at our destination as promised (the cars arrived ahead of schedule too!)

Response from the ownerThank you Catherine. Trust you settle quickly back into Perth. Until you move next time all the very best

Darren Paget

Relocations WA stored my household items for a few months whilst we found accomodation after an international move back to Australia, and also helped to move and unwrap our items when it came to moving in. The staff were friendly, helpful and careful. highly recommend.

Response from the ownerHi Darren,Appreciate your taking the time to respond for the feedback.Thank you and trust you and the family settle into your new home quickly.

Camille Parlangeau

★★★★★

More expensive than some other movers but it's worth the price. I needed their help for an urgent interstate relocation. They were very reactive and came to take my furnitures 3 days later. Very professional and careful guys! They expected my delivery in Victoria to arrive 10-12 days later. Took only 6 days ! I was delighted.Just one thing, the movers you gave our furnitures in Victoria to be delivered, are not to your level of care. Nothing was damaged but only one guy was working and we had to help him in pity because the other was talking on phone during the WHOLE thing. When he decided on helping... he bumped on the wall with the trolley letting a black mark on it. Something that can be cleaned fortunately. But i was more at peace with your guys than those ones.

Response from the ownerHi Camille,Appreciate your feedback and i'll address the delivery crew /service partner in Melbourne accordingly.All the very best and thank you very much and trust you settle quickly

Feifei Zhang

★★★★★

Steve and the team are very professional and friendly and also flexible. I've received high quality customer service focusing on my personal needs. I transported my piano from Perth to the other side of the world and when it arrived it was still in its original wraping, all the boxes were all good as well. Thanks Steve! Thanks Team!

Response from the ownerHi Feifei, appreciate your taking the time for feedback and very good to hear that your Yamaha Piano travelled well from Aust to UK. Thank you for entrusting Relocations WA with your international move and trust you settle in quickly

Received fantastic service from start to finish with Maria, Steve and team. Maria was really patient with all of my questions, particularly as I organised the move from one state to another, from somewhere else entirely! Pick up and drop off went smoothly at both ends and communication was prompt and helpful. Would happily recommend Relocations WA.

The guys were incredibly efficient, kind and went out of their way to be helpful.They’re not only fast, moving things in a way that protected the house and the furniture, but they were so polite and relaxed.Don’t get me wrong - moving still sucks! - but they made it suck way less. They took so much stress out of the situation and helped the move go smoothly.The owner Steve was really responsive on email in the lead up too, which helps put the mind at ease. Would definitely use again.

Excellent service. The guys were on time, and they packed and transported everything with care (even our real estate who were at the house when we were moving out were impressed, they asked for business cards). Booking was easy and responses were very quick. Due to settlement and key handover changing several times, Steve was able to accommodate us with every change without issue. Highly recommend Relocations WA!

Nash G

★★★★★

While we were unable to use their service for our relocation due to scheduling conflict, every aspect of our correspondence with Maria from Relocations WA was outstanding. Therefore the 5 star rating. Maria organised a video call in which she did a thorough analysis- checked our items, access points etc, gave lots of valuable advice and addressed our numerous questions. The process was un rushed and Maria was detailed and extremely courteous. The impression she gave us and her subsequent correspondence instilled in us a great sense of preference and confidence in Relocations WA. There were access issues at our apartment and Maria honestly did beyond what was required to try and secure a good deal for us. We truly appreciate this. Not being to finally use Relocations WA solely because of scheduling is really saddening for us but this is one company we will surely remember and use again should our circumstance require in the future. The process is simple and detailed. The pricing is highly reasonable and transparent. The customer service honestly outstanding!

Response from the ownerHi Nash,Thank you for the time to give your feedback. Maria is an excellent asset to our company and always goes the extra mile when trying to assist our family of clients with their Relocation requirements. I trust the other company looks after your well and very sorry we couldn't accommodate the move date you had requested.Thanks again.

Ashlee Jago

★★★★★

I used relocations WA to move to Sydney in 2021 and then I used them again to relocate back to Perth over a year later in 2023 and both times my experience was great! Steve and his team are so responsive, helpful and all of my items (mattress, bed, huge mirror and a lot of boxes) all arrived within the time frame I was told and in the same condition as I left them in. Could not recommend them enough if you are relocating :) Thanks Steve!

Response from the ownerThank you Ashlee for your kind comments and welcome back to Sunny Perth. We appreciate our clients and you letting us look after your relocation requirements . Trust you settle back into Perth quickly.

Steve and the team at Relocations WA are excellent. Where many other relocations companies were unable to assist us, Relocations WA were. They helped us relocate and were professional, efficient and guided us through every step of the process. Highly recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to reuse them again.

Michael James

★★★★★

Couldn't have higher praise for Steve and his team. We have moved internationally and interstate numerous times and our recent move from Sydney to Perth was the smoothest and most professionally managed of all of our relocations.The packing and removal team in Sydney was spectacular, shipping times were as advised and all arrived safe, secure and undamaged, and the unloading team in Perth were equally professional and friendly.Based on our experience, I would not hesitate to recommend Relocations WA in the strongest possible terms.Thanks Steve

Response from the ownerThank you Michael for your feedback.Welcome back to Perth and appreciate you using Relocations WA for your relocation. It is always nice to more organised professional people like yourself and partner.All the very best for 2023 and going forward.

Leda Trades

We move regularly for work and have used various companies in the past with mixed results. After reading Relocations WA's reviews we decided to give them a go. From the get-go Steve was completely professional with every aspect of the job. His guys were also great, taking great care of our items, which arrived sooner than expected.Easily the smoothest / easiest interstate relocation we've ever done.Price was excellent - very reasonable for such a big job.This move was Perth to Brisbane.Highly recommended.

Response from the ownerThank you very much for your feedback as is appreciate that you have taken the time to do this. All the very best for you in the future and look forward to assisting if required in any future moves ??Thanks again. Have a great Festive season

Andrea Brown

★★★★★

I am extremely impressed with Relocations WA, fantastic old fashioned service from Perth to Melbourne. Steve’s working crew, absolutely fantastic. Honest, hard working & absolute pleasure to be around . Extremely efficient, hard working men. Took pride in everything they did from beginning to end. Steve & his crew took the headache out of moving all the way from Perth to Melbourne. Even when the crew from the Melbourne end, the same applies to everything the Perth crew did. You cannot beat old fashioned service, I am happy to recommend Relocations WA any time😎😩

Response from the ownerThank you Andrea and appreciate the time taken to give feedback.Look forward to assisting anyone you wish to refer and yes we will catch up for a drink no doubt if and when our paths cross. Enjoy your family and new home project. thank you again for choosing Relocations WA

Peter Edward

Great to deal with, great communication, friendly staff and nothing is too hard. Not to mention price was well below the big well known firms. Highly recommend this company.

Response from the ownerThank you Peter. All the very best and trust you settle quickly

Janita Rankin

★★★★★

We recently relocated from Sydney to Mandurah. Steve and Maria made the whole process simple. The Dawsons team in Sydney were brilliant and Les and Nick (at the Mandurah end) were quick and efficient in unloading. They checked with us on where to locate everything and made it so easy (for a move).They were not the cheapest, but certainly the most responsive. Some other carriers claiming to be relocation specialists never even bothered to contact us. Business must be good when you can ignore enquiries.I have no hesitation in recommending Relocations WA.

Response from the ownerThank you Alan and Janita. Your comments/feedback is appreciated and trust you settle quickly into your new environment. Look forward to hearing from you again for your next move..

Phil O'nions

★★★★★

Steve and his team were brilliant from start to finish! Very attentive and reassuring. Would use them every time!

Response from the ownerThank you Phil. Happy travels to you and your wife and trust all goes well in your new overseas destination and career

Richy Low

★★★★★

Great experience with the team Relocations WA. I was impressed with the communication, cost, flexibility and speed of the removalists. I was moving from Roleystone to Seville Grove for a family of 3 with about 30m3 of stuff which the team was able to do in one trip and much appreciated. I required flexibility in dates as there was risk of dates moving and was notified that there was no rebooking fee versus $500 from other companies. I didn't need to move the date in the end, but appreciated the responsiveness and flexibility. Glad to have found this team and will be using them again in the future.

Response from the ownerRichy, appreciate your time taken to give us your feedback. Trust all goes well with the rebuild project and look forward to being of assistance again.

Vera Trajkovska

★★★★★

Everything: Professional and good service. Affordable as well

Response from the ownerThank you Vera. Appreciate you letting Maria coordinate your move for you as well.
