Instant move estimator
Room-by-room inventory that prices volume, crew, truck, hours and access on the spot.
Removalist software: instant quotes, booking & scheduling
Removalists: price the move before the competition does. Instant estimates that actually add up.
Phone quotes based on guesswork, home visits for every job and trucks double booked on the first of the month. We build estimating, booking and scheduling systems that fit how removals actually work. Then we host them and look after them.
Looking for removalist software with instant online quotes?
Moving quotes depend on rooms, furniture, stairs, distance and access. Most booking apps can't work any of that out, so the quote ends up being a guess over the phone or a drive across town to count wardrobes. Then the job lands on a whiteboard next to six others all wanting the same Friday.
Wollopit builds custom removals software around how your business actually runs. Customers list what's moving room by room and get a price that covers volume, crew, truck and access. They book a date and pay a deposit in one go. Your trucks and crews sit on one calendar that won't let you overbook. We connect the tools you already like, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers.
01The problems
What we hear from removalists
Does your removals business have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.
Most removalists we talk to are flat out lifting fridges all day and quoting from the cab at night. The system works until the end of the month hits.

03The systems
The big ones
Your whole removals business, on one system.
These are the systems removalists ask us about most. Each one works on its own and they get properly clever when they're joined up.
Instant estimates
Price the move from what's actually moving.
Customers go room by room and tick off what's coming. The estimator works out cubic metres, crew size, truck and hours, then adds access, distance and extras so the number holds up on the day.

- Cubic metres worked out automatically
- Crew size and truck size suggested
- Stairs, lifts, carries and parking
- Distance and travel time priced in
- Photo and video uploads
- Hourly or fixed price quotes

07How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your removals business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time in the office, on a truck and on the phone with you, then work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your pricing, trucks, crews, extras, storage, payments, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win before the next month-end rush.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
08Questions
FAQ
Things removalists ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can the estimator really price a move without a home visit?
For most jobs, yes. Customers list furniture room by room and upload photos or a video. The estimator works out volume, crew and truck, then you check it before it becomes a firm quote. Big or tricky jobs can still be flagged for a visit.
Can it price packing, storage and cleaning add-ons?
Yes. Packing, materials, storage and end-of-lease cleaning can all be offered as extras with their own pricing in the same quote.
Can it handle both hourly and fixed price moves?
Yes. You choose how each job type is priced. Hourly jobs show an estimated range while fixed price jobs lock in a number.
Do we have to switch from ServiceM8 or our current system?
No. If something is doing its job we build around it and connect the estimator, booking and scheduling on top. If it's holding you back we'll show you what replacing it would involve before anything changes.
How much does a removals system cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
How long does it take?
Smaller jobs like an online estimator or booking calendar can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early instead of waiting for everything at once.
Can our crews use it on their phones?
Yes. Job sheets, inventories, time tracking, photos and customer sign-off all work on a phone. No app store downloads needed.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most removalists we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
