Movers near you in Hong Kong

Yes, but as a declared specialty item with a surcharge — upright pianos, safes, marble tables and gym machines need extra crew, straps or dollies. Never let a two-person crew improvise a piano move down stairs; ask whether the firm has done that specific item and whether their insurance covers it.

Book 2-4 weeks ahead for a standard local move, and 6-8 weeks for peak periods — summer, the start and end of each month, and weekends, which sell out first. Last-minute slots exist midweek and mid-month, and some companies discount them.

Basic coverage included in most quotes is minimal (often a small amount per item or per kilo/pound). Ask about full-value protection or goods-in-transit insurance, what it costs, and what's excluded — owner-packed boxes are usually not covered for breakage. Photograph valuable items before the move and note any damage on the delivery sheet before the crew leaves.

Declutter first — volume drives price, and a skip-load of junk can be cheaper than moving it. Pack yourself, dismantle furniture in advance, book midweek and mid-month, and be fully ready when the crew arrives (hourly clocks run while you tape boxes). Moving the small stuff yourself by car and leaving only furniture to the pros also shrinks the crew hours.

A studio or 1-bedroom flat move typically runs HK$1,500-HK$4,000, a 2-bedroom HK$2,500-HK$7,000, and larger flats HK$4,500-HK$15,000. Quotes are per job based on your item list; stair access in walk-ups and podium carries add per-floor charges.

Access. Movers price stairs (per floor, per heavy item), long carries from the loading bay, and lift size limits — a sofa that won't fit the lift may need stair-carrying or even hoisting. Send photos of both buildings' access with your inventory to get a realistic quote the first time.
