Student moves near UniSC, share-house shuffles and family home moves across Sippy Downs. One removalist and a ute from $104 an hour, with the time estimate agreed before we start.
Since January 2024 we have done more than 170 jobs in Sippy Downs, about 70 of them furniture and house moves and the rest rubbish runs. Sippy Downs is a mix of family homes in Chancellor Park and the newer estates, townhouses and units near the shops, and student accommodation and share houses around UniSC. Each of those moves differently, and hourly pricing means each one costs what it actually takes.
Sippy Downs moves tend to stay close. The most common destination is Buderim, just up the hill, followed by moves within Sippy Downs itself. After that come Nambour and Mountain Creek. So most of our Sippy Downs work is a short drive with a lot of carrying at each end, which is where getting the crew size right saves you money.

UniSC is right here in Sippy Downs, and student moves are a natural fit for the way we work. Student moves are often small: a bed, a desk, a chest of drawers, a TV and a pile of boxes. That's often a job for one removalist and a ute, priced by the hour from $104 with a $109 minimum, rather than a truck and a full crew.
A few tips if you're moving in or out of student accommodation or a share house:
Every move is priced by the hour, with an estimate agreed before you book. Tell us what's moving and the access at both ends, and we'll estimate the loading, the drive and the unloading.
| Service | Price | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| One removalist and a ute | $104/hr | Student moves, a room in a share house, or a few pieces where you can help. Minimum $109. |
| Two removalists | $207/hr | Family homes, fridges and washing machines, and anything up stairs. Minimum $209. |
| House move, 2 bedrooms | from $599 | Quoted upfront from your item list. |
If the job takes longer than the estimate, extra time is billed in 15-minute blocks. You pay when we're finished. No fuel levies, no booking fees. Saturday moves are possible with our truck crew at 1.5 times the weekday rate. All the details are on the prices page.
Not every Sippy Downs move is a student one. Chancellor Park and the surrounding streets have plenty of family homes, and a family move means more furniture: beds for every room, a dining setting, the lounge, whitegoods and the kids' gear. For those, two removalists and the Isuzu truck is usually the right call. A two-bedroom house starts from $599, quoted upfront, and our house moves page explains how bigger jobs are planned.
Buderim is the most common destination for our Sippy Downs moves. The drive is short, but the access at the Buderim end can be very different: steep driveways, houses set below the street, and stairs down to the front door. When you describe the job, give us both ends. A flat Sippy Downs pickup and a sloping Buderim drop-off is a common combination, so the estimate needs to account for both.
Townhouse moves come with their own small puzzles. Shared driveways, visitor parking a long way from your door, and internal stairs up to the bedrooms. If you can, find out where a vehicle can stop and whether the complex has rules about moving times. Tell us how many levels the townhouse has. All of it goes into the estimate so the price holds.
Across our bookings, these come up most:
If it's just one thing, like a desk from Marketplace or a bed from a store, a single-item pickup starts from $109 with one removalist, or $209 when it needs two.
Moving out is the moment to let go of the broken chair and the mattress that has done its time. We can take unwanted items to the Buderim Transfer Station on Syd Lingard Drive on the same trip as your move. The tip fee is passed on at cost, and our time is charged at the same hourly rate. For a dedicated clear-out, see rubbish removal in Sippy Downs, and for old mattresses specifically, mattress removal.
