From the phone calls with Despina from Shelly's office to the two boys who did the packing through to the three removalists on the day, the service was impeccable.

We moved from Bacchus Marsh to Montrose and not one single thing broken or damaged.

Everyone was on-time (give or take 30 minutes because of Melbourne traffic) and the staff worked tirelessly from the moment they arrived, to the moment they had finished. We were surprised when they asked permission to have a break even though the work is exhausting and the breaks were well earned. Even the travel time between Bacchus Marsh and Montrose indicated that the guys would have had lunch in the truck while on the road and so we didn't have to pay extra for them to have a lunch break.

We paid the little bit extra to have three removalists on the truck and it was worth every cent as two of them could carry the heavy stuff while the third packed and secured the truck and this no doubt saved time and money and I would recommend this to anyone else moving.

We were amazed that we went from very little packed on the Tuesday morning to fully settled by late Wednesday which reduced the stress of the move.

Overall the costs were good with the packing and move just on $2500. 2 guys for 4.5 hours packing and 3 guys for almost 10 hours move the next day so very good value for money I think.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Shelly's to anyone and we will certainly use their services when we next have to move.

Approximate cost: $171.00
