Regular moves through Balcatta residential and commercial areas.
Balcatta is a split suburb and we understand both sides. South and west of Balcatta Road it is established and residential, with long-held family homes on larger blocks along streets like Erindale Road, Jones Street, and the quieter pockets near Jones Paskin Reserve. North of that line it becomes one of Perth's busier light-industrial and commercial precincts: warehouses, showrooms, and trade premises along Ledgar Road, Hector Street, and the Balcatta Road industrial strip.
Awesome Mate Removals charges $132 per hour for a two-person crew with a truck on weekday moves in Balcatta, GST included. The two-hour minimum applies on weekdays. Saturday moves are $132 per hour with a three-hour minimum. Sunday moves are $140 per hour plus GST with a four-hour minimum. Public holidays are $140 per hour plus GST. The clock starts at your front door when we arrive, not when we leave Tuart Hill. For moves within 30 minutes of our depot, which covers most of Balcatta, there is no travel time charge.
What changes the final price: access conditions at both addresses (stairs are $60 per flight, lifts need booking in strata buildings), truck parking distance, load size, packing requirements, specialist items, and after-hours or weekend scheduling for commercial jobs. A $60 to $100 deposit is required at booking and is refundable (T&Cs apply). Toll roads and fuel are charged at cost and confirmed in your quote. Everything is locked in before you commit.
Loading on a quiet residential street near Jones Paskin Reserve is a different job to loading at a warehouse on Ledgar Road. We plan around that difference before the truck leaves our depot. Balcatta Road, Wanneroo Road, and Reid Highway all carry heavy traffic at peak times, particularly around the Reid Highway interchange during morning and afternoon peaks. We factor road timing into the move plan from the start so you are not paying hourly while the truck sits in traffic.
Many Balcatta residential properties are long-held family homes on wider blocks, particularly along streets running off Erindale Road, Jones Street, and around Balcatta Primary School. These homes often have sheds, outbuildings, mature gardens, and furniture that has not been moved in fifteen or twenty years. Older timber furniture, large sideboards, and oversized wardrobes need more care and more time than flat-pack items from a newer build. We plan extra time into these jobs at quote stage rather than treating them the same as a two-bedroom unit.
The northern Balcatta precinct around Ledgar Road, Hector Street, and the streets off Balcatta Road handles heavy vehicle movement throughout the day. Loading docks, boom gates, and shared access points are standard here. If your move involves a warehouse, showroom, or trade premises in this area, we confirm access requirements and timing before moving day. After-hours and weekend scheduling is available for businesses that cannot afford downtime during trading hours.
Newer townhouse and strata developments have appeared along parts of Balcatta Road and the western edges of the suburb. These moves involve body corporate requirements, lift bookings in some complexes, and parking restrictions that need confirming before moving day. We handle the access coordination at quote stage so there are no surprises when the truck arrives.
