The most common home in Forest Lake has four or more bedrooms. That usually means our large truck, 50 m³ and built for heavily furnished homes with 3 to 4 bedrooms. About 52% of homes here have four or more bedrooms, so check the size before you book.
From our experience a home that size takes 6 to 10 hours. At $74.50 per half hour + GST, that is roughly $894 to $1,490 + GST for the two removalists and the truck, plus the travel fee. Access can swing the time either way, so your written quote is the number to rely on.
