Moving from Toorak to South Yarra was difficult enough before even asking removalists to come in and quote to pack, unpack boxes and move my entire house contents whilst providing the best service we deserved. Transcorp Removals & Storage were one of the 5 furniture removalists we asked to quote this very large move. We only requested quotes from AFRA members and they were one of them. They provided the best moving options and we gave them a chance after feeling comfortable with their qualified estimator, John. Well we must say that after a life of saving for precious furniture and effects we definitely made the right choice to have Transcorp as nothing was too hard and most importantly nothing was damaged or even marked. The price ended up cheaper than we thought even though the service is what we aimed to receive. They performed a faultless removal and we can not praise them enough. My advise is take your time and get removal quotes from AFRA members but ensure that Transcorp is one of them. I hope that you experience the same as we did. Thank you for the opportunity to express a great removal service performed.

Transcorp Removals and Storage moved our furniture belongings yesterday from Queensland to Melbourne without a hitch. They are professional, reliable and looked after my furniture. We have a tricky move with a piano and an 8ft billiard table and they moved it effortlessly....amazing what trollies and strength can do. My wife and kids had a great time watching it all and my son insisted that I let everyone know who good this company is. Use or call them to see if you agree with me. Many Thanks Dr James.

As a large company we use removalists alot for small to large internal moves. We have found the service extremely professional and quick from Transcorp Removals & Storage. We are now only using them for furniture relocations within the company and they deserve a wrap from me. Five Star Service all the way.

Looking for a qualified and professional removalists is very difficult. Transcorp made it easy to move my families belongings and they where able to insure my goods in the process. Nothing went wrong and a great decision we made after looking around for 4 weeks for our best removal option. Yes we are fussy but got it right here.

Melbourne Local and Interstate Removal Testimonials. Dear John, Transcorp were as efficient and reliable as they were friendly. From the first phone call to the final drop off Transcorp is a 1st class service. We have used Transcorp more than once with interstate delieveries, knowing full well that our goods will be delivered quickly and safely. Regards Grant Hackett & Candice Alley Dear John, Just a short note to thank you for Transcorp's assistance in moving us.........unlike the settling in period, the actual moving process was quick and painless thanks to your prompt and professional service. David and Chris, besides being great guys, were hardworking and efficient. No request seemed too difficult and they worked tirelessly to get it all done in the one day. More importantly, they got everything from A to B without any concerns whatsoever and with a minimum of fuss. Kindest Regards, Nathan Buckley Collingwood Football Club Dear John, This is a just a note to thank you and your team at Transcorp for moving my family and I to our new residence in Melbourne CBD last week. As a former Senior Trade Commissioner with the Australian Government I have had to "move" quite a few times in my career as a professional diplomat...nationally and internationally...so I've had some experience of "movers". I just wanted to let you know that you and your team matched the best I have seen anywhere...punctual, fast, efficient, experienced, careful, cost effective are words that spring to mind in describing your performance. Most of all, you and your team were happy and pleasant people...which in my experience means that people at Transcorp like what they do, and take pride in doing it well. Thanks again for a job well done. I shall certainly recommend Transcorp to anyone requiring all of the above. Kind regards John Hennebry Former Senior Trade Commissioner Australia Government Dear John and crew, I want to extend a big Thank You for the excellent work you provided when my parents were moving houses within Melbourne. Not only were you able to, with very short notice, arrange a fantastic crew you also personally assisted with the move. The move itself was done with the utmost professionalism, great care and with a speed that had to be seen to be believed. Having a professional removalist like Transcorp taking care of the move made all the difference. I can highly recommend Transcorp Australia to anyone who is looking for a full service home removalist. Best regards, J. Fantenberg Netelos Software Hi John, This is to tell you how pleased I was with the service I received from Transcorp Australia when moving my household furniture from Canberra to Melbourne last month. The two chaps who packed my belongings into the truck were very friendly, careful and efficient. My furniture arrived in Melbourne without delay. It was good to deal with a company that could do the move on the day that I wanted it done and at a reasonable price. The booking was easily arranged and scheduled. I would recommend Transcorp Australia to others who are moving interstate. Yours sincerely, Janis Floyd Dear John I wanted to make a point of sending an email to commend one of your staff members, Pina. About 6 weeks ago she organized for some things to be collected from my mother's house in country Victoria and brought up to Sydney. I had telephoned many companies wanting a quick delivery at a reasonable price. Not only was Transcorp able to come through on both counts, your staff member, Pina, was wonderful. She was very friendly, professional, and efficient. The pick up was scheduled for the following day and the delivery occurred the day after that. I couldn't have asked for better! Thank you again. Sincere regards Fergus Anderson - A very satisfied customer! Job # 2140 PS Let it also be known that the driver, Mario, also did a great job! Hi John, I would like to thank the wonderful team at Transcorp the move from Melbourne to Portland was painless the two guys who move me was the best two guys that you have working for you. Keep up the good work everyone and thank you again. Regards Vivienne Aroin P.s. You can put this onto the web site if you like. To whom it may concern, Thank you for the excellent service. Both Kyle and Joel are certainly a asset to your company. They made what could be a nightmare when moving house so stress free. Please pass on my gratitude to both men and you certainly have my future business and shall pass on your compay name to friends, family and business contacts. the truck number was 7509. subject: Transcorp Removals & Storage #23473 Dear Pina, Thank you for sending through that invoice so quickly. Please pass on my sincerest regards again to John for arranging my pickup so quickly - within half an hour the boys were in Richmond to pick up my stuff. After being left in the lurch by the other company, Transcorp came to my rescue! You guys clearly care about people's needs... and this will mean your company will go along way. I will absolutely be recommending you to anyone I know that needs their personal belongings moved locally, or interstate. Many thanks again to you and your company to coming to my urgent aide again. I was praying for a miracle... seriously.... and you guys were it! Best wishes, Anna Abignano There are far too many more to list here.

Office and Business Relocation Testimonials , Melbourne
Office and Business Relocation Testimonials Hi John, I’d like to formally thank you and your team for the tremendous job you did in moving the contents of our city office. This included 60 desk top computers as well as servers, racks and all the fittings and equipment you would expect in any less technology based environment, so that it was packed in a morning impressed me. When the actual move was accomplished before midday (on another morning) I was frankly amazed. The packers were great – fast but careful, and the movers impressed us not only with their speed but their attention to detail and good humour. It was a warm day and they were constantly on the go from 7am until almost midday, but they were laughing and joking right through. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and they overcame minor difficulties quickly and happily. I hope we don’t have to go through the experience again, but if we do, yours will definitely be the company that we use. Lesley McCrann Program Manager, Melbourne Quest Software John, Just wanted to send you a a quick email to thank you for the move you performed for us earlier this week. I cannot speak highly enough of the service provided and will not hesitate to recommend Transcorp to others. The care and speed your employees demonstrated in performing their tasks and their commitment to get a large job done under trying circumstances same day (with a 11.30pm finish) was exemplary. Sincere congratulations, John John Bodna Director Quantum Business Finance Dear John, We really appreciated your work for us on ... and wanted to thank your removalist. There cheerfulness, positive attitude to the job, and the care with which they moved our bits and pieces made what would have been a day from hell, into a comparatively relaxing and straight forward move (even though it was an extremely hot day) Kind Regards Anola and Gunter Eitzinger Adex Consulting Group John, Thank you very much for all your help in our relocation to our new office. Although it was quite a large move and a short time frame to work with your team was very professional and efficient and made the move very smooth for us. The boys moved everything in on the Saturday and by the Monday we were up and running business as usual. Thanks again, Natalie Pettolino Marketing Co-Ordinator Deck Guardrail Australia Pty Ltd There are far too many more to list here. Please let me know your own experience with my company by emailing jc@transcorpaustralia.com.au I sincerely thank you in anticipation of experiencing a great business relocation!

Please contact us for all other removal times.

Is there anything I should do to pre-pare my goods for transit?

Where you have certain items such as a washing machine we recommend you follow the manufacturers instructions as they can be easily damaged. Fridge/ Freezers should be emptied and wiped clean throughout. Vanilla essence helps keep mildew away particularly if its going into storage. Glass/ timber shelves should be pulled off and kept together for safety and dis-assembling beds etc will help with minimising the time the removalist's needs to be at your premises, saving you time and money.

Am I allowed to provide food and drinks to the removalist?

The Transcorp staff will generally provide there own food and drinks when working, but asking if they would like a drink of water may be greatly appreciated. No alcoholic drinks are allowed to be consumed whilst working or driving.

Can I ask the furniture removalist to stack the truck in a way I'd prefer?

Transcorp Removals & Storage only employs staff trained for specific jobs. Therefore, unless you are a qualified removalist and packer it is very unlikely you will be able to stack the truck as professional as our removalist. We do, however understand the need to listen to request (s) of what needs to be delivered at the drop off point (s) first, so in these cases communicating with our removalist with assist in them allowing for your request (s).

I need to move house but my new place is still not ready, can you help me?

Yes! We can help with storage requirements if your new place is not ready. As all situations are different, please speak to us directly so that we may accommodate to best suit your needs.

Can the removalist move my plants?

In the case of local removals there generally is no problem in moving plants. Plants required to be stored in storage facilities or where they need to travel interstate may cause some problems and not be recommended. Speak to us regarding this area.

Am I allowed to pack my own boxes?

Transcorp Removals & Storage welcomes you to pack your own boxes but we strongly recommend you follow our procedures with-in our web-site. There are limitations if you pack your own boxes and decide to take our Insurance to protect your furniture effects with Transcorp. Please read the PDS, FSG & Policy wording for full details.

On all local removals including office/ factory re-locations, a fixed price may be also determined and agreed to, but typically all removal companies allow for some extra anticipated delays when pricing the jobs this way.
