About Us

 

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.

 

We are experts at moving structures

We excel at ensuring any type of structure, including those with historical significance, are safely relocated.

 

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.

We provide a tailored relocation and elevation service and can provide advice on any structural moving project you may be considering; be it saving a heritage building, moving heavy equipment, or raising and relocating a dwelling to improve its value for flood mitigation purposes.

Our international moving and engineering experience, combined with specialised modern equipment and techniques enable us to move masonry buildings and undertake specialised equipment relocations.

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.
