My move of household effects from interstate to Tasmania went without a hitch, despite me not being able to be present at the collection. All Bells staff that I spoke to were quick to respond to any question I had, and were easy to communicate with. The delivery was complicated by having to be split between 2 residences, but the men were organised, cheerful, efficient and careful with all our things. I was very pleased to have chosen to go with a local removals service and would recommend them. They also had very reasonable rates – Ruth A
Moving interstate isn’t like moving across town. You’re coordinating pickup and delivery across two states, working around sea and road transport schedules, and often juggling settlement dates on both ends. It’s a lot to manage on top of an already stressful life event — and the last thing you need is uncertainty about whether your belongings will arrive safely and on time.
That’s exactly what our interstate removal and storage solutions are built for: prompt, reliable, and personalised, whether you’re moving for family or for business.
Need somewhere for your things in the meantime?
If there’s a gap between moving out and moving in, we offer flexible storage solutions to bridge it — Container Storage for short term needs, Module Storage for longer term contracts, and Single Item Storage for antiques and heirlooms.

All the staff at Bell’s Removals were brilliant! Everyone did their best to make sure the move went smoothly. The office staff were polite and helpful every time I called in a panic to check up on the latest government restrictions. In the end the move happened while I was in government quarantine and the removalists had to work with my friends at one end and a family member on arrival. Everything arrived perfectly and in great condition. Thank you everyone for your great work and support during what was a very stressful time – Cathryn M
