What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Highton Removals & Storage has built a strong following in Geelong for both local and long-distance work, with reviewers repeatedly highlighting the care taken with furniture and household goods. Customers in several reviews describe relocations to Canberra, Sydney and Hervey Bay, as well as house moves across the region, and note that items arrived without a scratch, including a piano and other delicate pieces.

The team is consistently described as punctual, efficient and organised, with the packing and unpacking process singled out for its smoothness. Communication before and after the job earns frequent praise, from the contracting stage through to delivery updates. Named staff such as Alex, Cane, Kym and Lisa are mentioned for their respectful, patient and professional manner, and the office team is credited with making arrangements straightforward.

The company's self-storage option also features in feedback, with shipping containers used for extended periods and belongings returned in excellent condition. Reviewers often note that steep driveways, stairs and tight access were handled without fuss, and that difficult jobs were made to look easy. A point made in several accounts is the willingness to assist at short notice when another removalist failed to appear, with flexibility and understanding described as a hallmark of the service.

I cannot recommend Highton Removals and Storage more. After my previously booked removalist unfortunately didn’t show up, Highton Removal team kindly helped me at very short notice during the stressful transition period. I was so grateful for their flexibility and understanding. The move itself went incredibly smoothly too. The team was punctual, efficient. Everything was handled professionally and with great care. Amazing service and amazing team! I would not hesitant to recommend them to anyone who needs a trustworthy and reliable removalist.

We had our items stored in a shipping container for a year and a half, both the pick up and the delivery of our belongings were made easy and effortless, the staff are great people. Thanks

We could not have been happier with how smoothly our move went, thanks to Highton Removals. The two guys were absolutely brilliant, so organised, motivated, nothing was too hard for them and they were very polite. We had a very steep driveway and lots of stairs for them to navigate, but they made it look easy. Highly recommended.

I have used Highton Removals three times now. It would have been four but on one occasion they were all booked out. I had them move me from my place in Fyansford yesterday. As always I was impressed with their whole process from ringing and speaking with office, their updating communication, their punctuality and most importantly their skill in packing and unpacking. The men make difficult jobs look easy like moving a piano or a very delicate TV. I watched them and were amazed at their ability to pack with minimal wasted space. The guys we had yesterday Alex and Blake, were jovial, focused and efficient. Well done everyone!

We have had a storage shipping container at this place for 3 years and the customer service we have received throughout this time has been great. The container got delivered and everything was in EC and the staff were very professional.
