In a world where moving can be daunting, Vault stands out as the exception. The uplift team, Jacobi, Paul, Jordan and Josh, didn't just move our things – they moved with empathy. Their attuned approach, especially with our autistic son's needs, was a masterclass in professionalism fused with genuine connection.Come delivery, Shane and Phil hit the ground running. Their expertise was evident, their efficiency was unmatched, but it was their genuine warmth that truly stood out. With them, we didn't just feel like another task on their list; we felt like neighbors being welcomed home.For anyone considering a move, Vault isn't just an option; it's the best choice.

I have used these guys before and they continue to do a great job. They were happy to do the extra bit in my removal today, a door to door removal, 23 August, grabbing bits and pieces and working around my needs at both the pick up and delivery addresses.In addition, about 18 months ago they were about to drop off a full removal to a residence for me and I had to cancel the morning of the delivery and it was done without any problem.Thank you very much

Our three-storey house with lots of stairs required complex skills and logistics. The move was executed logically, with care and high-level skills. The team worked well together, and their communication and care skills were outstanding from the point of contact. They say moving is one of the highest stressors in life; this company and its crew made this task much more manageable. Highly highly recommend them with no hesitation.

Great interstate moving experience with Vault. Could not fault the customer service or move itself, although I did have one furniture image damaged somewhere along the line, but that was addressed by the furniture manufacturer who sent me a new handle for free. Other than that, Sam, Dave, and Chris, plus the boys on the Victorian end of things were all wonderful.Would, and am, going to use Vault again!

From Sam the owner, Masyn and Lil in the office and the guys in the trucks our removal experience was first rate. All questions and scenarios were patiently explained and when our house settlement was delayed,Sam was very accommodating and flexible and made a very stressful time much easier. The guys were friendly and polite and worked non stop, making for a very fast packing and unpacking service. Would definitely recommend to anyone moving near or far.

They handled our interstate move with ease over a busy public holiday time. Great value and they assessed the amount we would be moving incredibly accurately. It was a relief to have them show up amidst the chaos and do their job thoughtfully and professionally. Everything arrived clean, well packed and was unloaded swiftly. Took away all the stress.

We used Sam and the Vault team in late 2021 to move home. Having moved/relocated with our work no less than 8 times in the past 20 years, we know what excellent service is for this space.Sam and his team respectfully purchased a popular, multi-generation local business, refreshed, improved and continues to expand it. He's enhanced moving capability and storage facilities in our region dramatically. Sam tackled this, at a very uncertain time for a small business and based on what we see on the streets, it has been an outstanding success. One only needs to meet Sam to know he is a genuine family man who loves growing his business with a passionate and genuine focus on customer service.To see the rebranded "Vault" trucks regularly in local moves all around the Coffs Coast is a testament to Sam and his team and we will be using them again the next time we move home.Cheers,Lola

Sam is a legend. Very professional and allowed multiple options for relocation. Hourly rate or carton packing prices. Work moves me around a lot and I was very happy with how they moved us, well above the service of others. Prices were also very decent. Definitely recommend them.

I can not say enough about the vault team. They looked after us on an interstate move so well. The team that was allocated to us were magic. Kind, funny, responsive to a point a point where I was trying to poach them to work for me. A small insurance claim was dealt with, swiftly and easily. Some things don’t transport well and the team were so remorseful when my item arrived damaged. This definitely wasn’t through any poor management by the team, these things happen and it’s the follow up and the care taken to replace the item that makes Vault an amazing business.

I got Sam and the crew to move a very bulky and delicate item from in town to my home outside of Coffs. Everything was transported on time and everything was intact on arrival. This was the first time I have used these guys under their new ownership and I felt like everything was just as good as it was under the previous ownership.

With hree houses, shed and seperate gym on the property we were worried about the move to storage until our new home is built. Sam and his friendly efficient team made it easy for us. They provided all the packing boxes and advice that we needed, turned up dead on time both days and moved three truck loads. A great job at a great price. Could not recommend them more. Graeme & Sue

Hi, sold my home and called on Sam to give me a quote to remove and store my goods. It was very reasonably priced so went ahead. They turned up on time, I was caught short on packing time so they helped pack up my remaining goods at a reasonable price. After my friends house is packed up too they'll drive the two households up to Hervey Bay and unpack them into our new home. Again the prices are very reasonable. They are friendly, helpful and punctual and based on my experience so far I would recommend Sam and his crew to do your job.

Sam was great! Solid quoting process. Creative problem solving skills that gave us options on costs and was a great manager of his team. The team spent a day and half packing us up in the Coffs area, and helped us coordinate a second pickup in Sydney and 2 drop off spots in Sydney. Everything ended up where it was supposed to end up! Nothing was broken. There is not a single reason to not use CHR&S! Give them a call!!!

Very impressed with the end to end service from Coffs. Sam, Connie and the moving team were all absolutely fabulous. I have done 5 international moves and numerous local moves in my day and these guys were one of the absolute BEST! Success always starts with the initial contact and Connie and the office team were outstanding and provided assurance and confidence that they could execute our move from Dee Why to Evans Head working perfectly with our schedule. They make regular trips to Sydney and beyond even though they are headquartered in Coffs. They were incredibly communicative through the whole process and lead up to the move and worked with us on delivery times and even owner Sam came out personally to ensure everything went smoothly! The guys on the ground were friendly and professional...salt of the earth...and took great care, even through some of it was only IKEA, they treated it like treasured heirlooms. I couldn't say enough good things about the whole experience and highly recommend these guys for Sydney moves and beyond!

Having used removalists and transport companies at least 6 times over the past 15 years, finding a great one, is something you should share with others as they can make your life so much easier when moving, especially with children.John, Connie and the team at Coffs Harbour Relocations and Storage absolutely nailed the whole offering. We moved from Sydney to the Coffs Coast three months ago and we could not have been happier with the service. John gave me two quotes, one for move and storage on their own premises (should we not find a suitable home before the move date) and a quote to go direct to our new home, should we have found it.We ordered their largest truck just hoping, without real confidence, they could fit our five bedroom home into it. Upon arrival, John’s team assessed the large load and noted it was likely to be tight, but they would fit it all in. It is indeed a great skill to be able to load everything so efficiently and to give the customer such an assurance. Indeed, he was spot on, very little to spare, but all in. To then have it so neatly unpacked at our new home at the other end, was just a bonus and a continuation of the great service offering.Thank you John and team for an excellent result. Always great to see a multi-generation family business building on earlier successes and helping families along the way.Cheers,Scott
