Frequently Asked Questions

What to Know Before Booking A Long Distance Removalist

How Far Is Considered A Long Distance Move?

A long distance relocation can safely be considered anything that is over 600 km. This is why interstate and country relocations fit this category. Both types require careful planning and coordination, as they can often take several days to complete.

As Sydney’s leading interstate removalists, ZOOM brings 17+ years of expertise moving furniture across Australia. We offer flexible bookings through Premium Direct and Backloading, available 7 days a week.

What Is The Average Cost of Moving Long Distances?

Moving far away from Sydney costs between $600 (backloading) and $6,000 (premium direct), with most customers paying around $3,500. Final costs ultimately depend on the distance travelled and the volume of items.

We highly recommend using our interstate moving calculator for an instant estimate.

What Is The Cheapest Way To Move Out Of Sydney in Australia?

We recommend our backloading removals service. This is where your belongings travel with other customers’ items on a truck returning from another journey, so you only pay for the space you use. ZOOM offers backloads every week to all major Australian cities. To learn more, read our article: What is backloading?

How Long Do Interstate or Country Moves Usually Take?

This will depend on where your final address is located. Typically speaking:

• Backloading: 3-7 days for interstate moves (cost-effective, shared service).
• Dedicated truck: 1-3 days for direct interstate delivery (faster, exclusive use).
• Country moves: 1-2 days, depending on which regional location you are moving.

For further questions, our team will be able to offer more accurate timeframes once you have booked a move with us.

When Should I Book My Move?

The sooner you book, the better. Try and book as soon as you know your moving dates and at least 2-3 months in advance for all interstate or country relocations. This is because you get:

• Better availability for backloads
• More time to plan and budget properly
• More time to take advantage of our optional services like packing, storage, and cleaning services.
• A better chance to secure your preferred moving date.

If you need to arrange an emergency move, our last minute removalists are available on all days of the week and at short notice.

Do You Offer Storage If My New Home Isn’t Ready?

Yes. We have two Sydney facilities in Smeaton Grange and Beverly Hills, which are perfect for putting items away until your home is ready to move into. View our removals and storage page for more information.
