Kangaroo Ground is the sort of place you notice from a distance, because the old stone tower on top of the hill is visible for miles. Up close it’s quiet farmland and bush, with orchards, paddocks and the odd horse looking over a fence. Houses sit on big blocks, a long way from the road and from each other. Locals will tell you that’s the whole point of living here.

If you’re booking a removalist in Kangaroo Ground, we’ll want to hear about the driveway first. Plenty are long, steep and gravel, and some have a tight gate or a soft patch after rain that a full-size truck can’t handle. Send us a photo or a rough description, and we’ll bring a truck that can actually get in. Wet weather slows things down, so we leave extra time.

Properties like these usually have more to move than the house itself. There’s garden gear, a shed full of tools, and often a few big timber pieces that have been in the family for years. Our furniture removals crew at Mover Melbourne wraps and straps everything for the bumpy road out. The price is fixed before we start, and it doesn’t change on the day.
