A customer’s thoughts
“I engaged Move Move Movers for my house relocation recently. The service provided was excellent, no headaches for me at all. I didn’t have to standby to ensure the shifting was done properly, and the end result was fantastic. Also, I made some price comparisons amongst the market, and they were among the cheapest. I will definitely recommend Move Move Movers to anyone in need of a moving service. Highly recommended. Thank you, Mengfei and Sky!” – Andy, Singaporean

A customer’s thoughts
“I heard about Assalaamu’alaikum Enterprise from a colleague – and I’m very grateful! I first contacted the team via WhatsApp about my moving period. They responded quickly, advising suitable timings and also providing guidance on the process and tentative pricing. They also handled moving deposits with our current and new condo.
Leading up to the move, they dropped off cardboard boxes and tape so that we could start packing. We packed some items ourselves and also had them pack more for us on the day of the move, particularly the fragile items. They wrapped each individual item carefully, which was fantastic. On the morning of our moving day, their team loaded everything onto the trucks, unpacked everything and placed furniture where we wanted. By evening, we were moved in. The service they provide is great; you feel like you’re dealing with people who care. I’d recommend them as movers in Singapore every chance I get; their work is efficient and pricing is reasonable.” – Sara, Singaporean/Dutch

A customer’s thoughts
“My husband and I lived in Asia for almost 30 years and relocated frequently. Some of our moves went well, others unfortunately not. For our recent move to Italy, we chose Sanelo.
Our consultant Fahmy made it so easy with his detailed surveying, quick response and pleasant personality. The moving crew was also the fastest, most organised and most diligent we’ve ever experienced. Daily reviews were done, and no matter how many times we adjusted our packing list, the team leader would rearrange everything immediately with a smile. Roads in Italy are difficult to access, and we were worried, but the team did detailed location scouting via Google Maps. An hour before the container arrived, a small truck has double-checked our location. In less than two hours, all 139 of our boxes were unloaded and stored.
We never thought that moving could be so joyful. Our next move will definitely be with Sanelo!” – Karin and Josef Dolp, German and Austrian

Sir Move Services – all-inclusive movers
This moving company in Singapore ensures that your move is planned to your precise specifications. They will organise a pre-move visit where you can discuss important details such as insurance, labelling, packing details and your move schedule.
A customer’s thoughts
“This year, I moved my family to Brisbane after spending 10 years as an expat in Singapore. However, repatriation came with its set of challenges. Navigating the rising moving costs and complying with regulations that influence what I can currently move internationally was difficult. In truth, returning to Australia felt harder than many other moves I had made during my expat life.
Fortunately, I discovered Sir Move Services which made the entire process of repatriation easier. Firstly, they helped me understand how the rise in moving costs and shipping delays would determine how long it would take me to get all my belongings to my new residence in Australia. Over a thoughtful phone call, I was able to discuss the type of moving services I needed. We also talked about how to make my budget work. More importantly, they explained how the regulations would affect my items as they moved through the ports and what I couldn’t bring into the country duty-free. They also provided different international moving quotes depending on our needs to help me get a clear picture of what I was getting into. Just like travelling, moving internationally is presently a complicated scene as logistics are tricky.
I’m very grateful for the experienced team at Sir Move Services; they’ve operated in Singapore for over 16 years and are helmed by one of the industry’s well-known experts, Charlie Scott. The company is also one of the few FIDI-approved in Singapore, giving them a global seal for quality and recognition.”

Australia Technologies – personalised service and temporary storage
Australia Technologies have been movers in Singapore since 2002, and was started by a team with over 20 years of experience in the field. With a mantra of providing “turnkey” relocations, they provide a fully personalised service. Over the years they’ve helped many expats move (locally and internationally), so they know that sometimes warehousing services are needed to bridge a gap between one location and the next.
