Hasan, founder of Kolachi Express, once felt trapped behind a desk. Today, his removalist business is a trusted name in and around Perth, WA, celebrated for efficiency, professionalism, and exceptional service. But as Hasan would tell you, the journey to success wasn’t without its challenges.

Finding His Niche in the Market

Eight years ago, Hasan found himself restless in his office job. “I was bored and hopeless,” he admits. But instead of settling, he decided to carve his own path. Identifying a gap in Perth’s pickup and delivery market, Hasan launched a removalist service that focused on smaller, cost-effective jobs.

“Big companies were charging too much for small jobs,” Hasan explains. “People were hiring trailers or relying on friends to move a few items. We created an opportunity to serve those customers at a lower cost with exclusive delivery services.”

Growing with Passion and Perseverance

The early days of Kolachi Express weren’t easy. “The first few months were very challenging,” Hasan recalls. Having left a well-paying job, he grappled with doubts about whether to continue. To make ends meet, Hasan worked evening shifts while growing his business during the day.

But his persistence paid off. Kolachi Express quickly gained traction, thanks to its commitment to better service. "Our strategy has always been simple: offer better service and keep communication open," Hasan shares.

A Service Worth Recognising

Kolachi Express has since earned a stellar reputation, becoming one of the Top 10 Removalists in the ServiceSeeking Business Awards for six consecutive years. Hasan credits much of the business’s success to platforms like ServiceSeeking, which connected him with his first wave of clients.

“ServiceSeeking.com.au led us to small jobs—the kind we wanted to do—and introduced us to customers who became permanent clients,” Hasan says.

Stories of Happy Customers

For Hasan, nothing beats hearing from satisfied customers. Reviews like Felicia’s reflect the care and attention Kolachi Express brings to every move:

“Fantastic service! Very efficient, professional, and helpful. Made the move easy and did a great job. Thanks!” — Felicia, North Perth, WA

Another customer, Tina from Cottesloe, highlights the team’s dedication:

“Hasan and his team did a great job! I needed a heavy sofa moved to storage, and the guys even helped rearrange boxes to fit it in. Communication was prompt, and they kept me updated. Thanks, Hasan! When I need to move anything, I'll know who to call and recommend.”

Lessons Learned and Looking Ahead

Hasan’s journey is filled with lessons: “Every setback teaches you something different,” he reflects. One key takeaway? Keep an eye on cash flow and never underestimate the importance of after-sales service.

Looking to the future, Hasan is excited about expanding Kolachi Express and diversifying his business portfolio. “It’s all about the mindset,” he says. “If you’re just meeting expenses, your business won’t grow. You have to aim higher.”

The Heart of Kolachi Express

At its core, Kolachi Express isn’t just about moving items—it’s about delivering peace of mind. From customers taking celebratory photos with his team to glowing reviews, Hasan’s dedication shines through in every job.

So, the next time you need a trusted removalist in the Perth area, remember Kolachi Express. For Hasan, it’s not just a business—it’s a testament to resilience, hard work, and the belief that better service makes all the difference.
