Bought a sofa, table, bed, sideboard, cabinet, antique, designer piece or handmade item and need it collected properly?
Phil’s Furniture Freighters provides careful one-off furniture pickups and single-item delivery across Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney and selected VIC, NSW and ACT routes. This service is for bulky, delicate, valuable or awkward pieces that need more care than a basic courier drop-off.
We protect suitable pieces with removal blankets, load them carefully and place them where access, safety and the agreed scope allow.
For an accurate quote, send the pickup and delivery suburbs, item type, measurements, photos, access notes and preferred timing.
Careful single-item transport—not just point-to-point freight
We regularly move sofas, sofa beds, dining tables, bed frames, bedheads, buffets, sideboards, cabinets, bookcases, occasional chairs and selected antiques, designer pieces or handmade furniture.
Pickups can come from Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree, eBay, antique stores, auction rooms, furniture retailers, private sellers, makers, workshops and showrooms.
