We are experts at moving structures.

Mammoth Movers, Australia's first masonry building moving company, specialises in relocating and elevating brick, stone and concrete structures.

The Smart Alternative to Demoltion.

What We Do

Mammoth Movers is the first company in Australia to specialise in the moving and elevating of masonry structures, whether made of brick, stone or concrete. Until now, these structures could not be moved as a whole and were left for demolition or dismantling. This has meant that in past years, buildings have been needlessly lost, including buildings of heritage significance.

Mammoth Movers is a full-service company that can handle any structural relocation or raising project you're considering. We specialise in:

  • Saving heritage buildings

  • Relocating dwellings to improve their value

  • Moving heavy plant and equipment

  • Unlocking development opportunities while preserving history

Our company’s international moving and engineering experience, combined with specialised modern equipment and techniques enable us to safely move or elevate masonry buildings and undertake specialised equipment relocations.

Who We Are

The world’s oldest and largest recycling industry

Mammoth Movers was founded in 2003 by Matthew Manifold; a qualified Engineer after travelling through country South Australia and noticing countless vacant stone cottages. Matthew questioned whether these houses could be moved to a location where they could have a second life. Matthew discovered the International Association of Structural Movers (IASM) in the USA which confirmed that masonry houses had been raised and relocated using proven practices for well over 100 years.

Mammoth Movers is proud to have worked together with some of the top professional structural movers in the long-established US structural moving industry, including Flint and Doyle Structural Movers, Brownie Moving & Heavy Haulage, Davis Construction House Movers, Westcoast Structural Movers and J.E. Oswalt & Sons.

Our established relationship with these, and other US based companies provides a direct conduit to over four generations of international structural moving and is coupled with the worldwide structural moving network through our membership of IASM and contacts developed whilst working in the USA.

Mammoth Movers carries extensive public liability, contract works & plant, and professional indemnity insurance when undertaking any job.  Each individual structure can also be insured for the duration of the project.

What Makes Us Different

Mammoth Movers isn’t a run of the mill house mover. We offer a professional engineering and relocation company providing fully engineered solutions for each project.

We have adopted proven unified jacking and zoning technology from the international structural moving industry which, combined with professional and experienced personnel from Australia and USA, will result in a quality result for your project.

Mammoth Movers has an established network within the USA structural moving industry, having worked for and with some of the best masonry movers and house raisers in the industry.

Mammoth Movers holds all relevant building licenses and tickets together with professional engineering qualifications, and will provide relevant insurances for your project.

The First and the Experienced

Mammoth Movers provides a niche market, structure relocation service to the building construction industries and government sectors.  We are the first company in Australia to specialise in the moving and elevating of masonry structures.

Mammoth Movers relocated the first masonry building on rubber tyres in Australia ever. Undertaken in 2003, this unique move was recognised by Engineers Australia in their annual awards. Since then Mammoth Movers has saved a number of significant heritage buildings and enabled developments to proceed without sacrificing the past.
