For many years, Grace Removals sponsored advertising at the end of the credits of several Australian soap operas produced by the Grundy Organisation, including the international cult serial, Prisoner: Cell Block H (Ten Network; 1979-1986). The advertisement was cut out of international broadcasts of Prisoner, however, they can be seen on the subsequent DVD release of the entire series.
Other Grundy productions with Grace Removals sponsorship slides include The Young Doctors (Nine Network, 1976–1983) and The Restless Years (Network Ten, 1977–1981).
