We move houses and offices in metropolitan Sydney. We will move you to anywhere in Australia.
We offer pre-packing services and can arrange unpacking and storage for you. We sell and hire
a range of products to help your move (see our list for prices) and will arrange delivery of
these items prior to your move (we will happily collect your used boxes to reuse after your
move, in order to help our environment).

Note these prices are a guide only. For details specific to your move contact us today
for a no obligation estimation or quotation.
* Travelling time is charged at a minimum for destinations other than the Sutherland Shire
and its immediate surrounds (there is no travelling time charged for these areas). The
travelling time fee is dependant upon your location and the size of your job and is only
charged in order to cover our costs – we do not profit from our travelling charges.
Insurance
French Twins Removals holds a number of insurance policies. Our Carriers Liability insurance policy
covers damage to your items in the event of:
- Fire
- Explosion (subject to our policy regarding transportation of dangerous goods eg. gas cylinders,
petroleum products. See our Non-allowables list)
- Lightning damage
- Flood
- Collision or overturning of our truck
whilst your belongings are being transported by us.
Your items are also covered for theft ($500 excess) and damage incurred during loading and unloading ($1000 excess).
This means that if you choose not to take out any additional insurance, in the event of the theft of our truck whilst
your belongings are inside it, or the theft of some of your goods by a third party during your move, you will be liable
for the first $500 payable in the replacement of those items. In making a claim for theft it may be necessary to prove
ownership of those items either with photographs or original purchase receipts (perhaps photograph your most important
items beforehand). If any items are damaged in the loading and unloading of your possessions and you have not taken out
additional insurance, then you will be liable for the first $1000 payable in the replacement or repair of those items.
In all cases the maximum sum insured is $50,000. This insurance policy does not require any additional payment from
you or for you to fill out any paperwork.
If you do wish to take out additional insurance for your move (such as if you wish to reduce the excess payable or
insure items to a higher total value), or even to just discuss your options, please contact our insurance broker
Vaughan & Monaghan Insurance and Financial Services on (02) 9476 2988 who will be happy to assist you.
Don't forget to check your existing home insurance policy – you may already be covered for your move.
Payment Methods
Cash, Cheque, or Direct bank deposit
Terms
Full payment of all accounts is due at the completion of the move unless by prior arrangement. Payment
by direct deposit should be arranged immediately (let us know beforehand if you intend to pay by direct
deposit and we will give you our bank account details) and we allow this facility and payment by personal
cheque in good faith. Credit will not be extended under any circumstances. For interstate moves a deposit
may be required at the time of booking with the balance payable at completion. In the case of telephone or
email quotations, we reserve the right to charge in addition to the quotation if circumstances are found
to be grossly different to that described. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure all items
are packed and ready to be moved on the morning of the move, with no undue delay caused. We will happily
pack and supply packing materials, but if this has not been included in our original quotation we will be
obliged to charge an additional fee.
