How your total is worked out
The total is simply the hourly rate multiplied by the hours on site, door-to-door. How long a move takes depends on volume, stairs and lift access, parking distance, and the drive between addresses — which is why GoMovers quotes an hourly rate and confirms the estimate with you before starting, rather than advertising a fixed price that changes on the day.
Tell us the pickup and destination suburbs and the size of the home and you will get a written estimate of both the rate and the likely hours.

How much do removalists cost per hour on the Gold Coast?
GoMovers charges from $160/hr + GST ($176/hr including GST) for two movers and a 4.5t truck, and from $215/hr + GST ($236.50/hr including GST) for a 6.5t truck for larger homes. Fuel, blankets and trolleys are included in that rate — they are not added to the invoice afterwards.
Is GST included in the advertised rate?
No. GoMovers advertises rates excluding GST, which is standard for Australian removalists. Add 10% for the GST-inclusive figure: $160/hr + GST is $176/hr, and $215/hr + GST is $236.50/hr.
What is included in the hourly rate?
Two experienced movers, the truck, fuel, moving blankets, trolleys and straps, and $50,000 transit insurance. There is no call-out fee, no fuel levy, no equipment hire charge and no weekend surcharge on standard hourly bookings.
When does the clock start and stop?
GoMovers bills door-to-door: the time is counted from arrival at the pickup address to completion at the destination. The final figure is confirmed with the customer before the crew starts work.
Why is GoMovers not the cheapest hourly rate on the Gold Coast?
Some Gold Coast removalists advertise a lower hourly figure and then add fuel, travel time, blanket hire or a weekend surcharge to the invoice. The GoMovers rate is the rate — comparing the advertised number alone is misleading unless the inclusions are compared too.
