If you’ve searched for crate hire, you’re in the right place — moving crates, totes, tubs: different names, same brilliant idea. Ours are collapsible commercial crates with hinged lids that fold flat once you’ve unpacked, so they never clutter your new home while you settle in.
Crate hire is how offices and removalists have moved for years. We bring the same commercial-grade kit to Sunshine Coast households, with delivery and collection included in every package.
Clean totes and a dolly arrive at your door, ready to pack — across the greater Noosa area, out to Gympie, and Maroochydore–Nambour on Sundays.
Hinged lids snap shut. No tape, no assembly, no crushed corners.
Unpacked? The totes collapse flat and we pick everything up.

Nothing meaningful — "crate" is the common Australian trade term, "tote" is the American one, and plenty of people say tubs or bins. They’re all the same hinged-lid plastic moving container.
Each crate is rated to around 30kg and designed to stack fully loaded. The hinged lids interlock so stacks stay square on a dolly or in the truck.
As a rule of thumb: 15 totes for a studio or 1-bedroom, 20 for a 2-bedroom, 35 for a 3-bedroom and 50 for a 4-bedroom home. Every package includes a moving dolly, labels and zip ties, and you can add extra weeks at checkout if unpacking takes longer.
Yes — delivery before your move and collection after you unpack are part of every hire. We service the greater Noosa area, Coolum, Gympie, and (on Sundays) Maroochydore–Nambour. Use the address checker on our home page for an instant answer and delivery price for your postcode.
Every package includes 2 weeks, which suits most local moves — totes arrive a few days before moving day and we collect once you have unpacked. Need longer? Add extra weeks at checkout for a small weekly rate.
Every tote is washed and sanitised between hires, so your belongings go into a genuinely clean container — not a second-hand cardboard box from a supermarket dock.
No — and this surprises people who haven't moved in a while. Modern cardboard boxes are made from recycled pulp, which holds moisture and develops a musty odour in Queensland humidity — a smell that can transfer into clothes and linen packed inside. HDPE plastic is non-porous: nothing soaks in, and every tote is washed between hires.
