             The Removalists demonstrates that when a society conditions its inhabitants in its primitive and violent way, primitive and violent behaviour will be the inevitable result. It examines the consequences when primitive aggressive instincts veer out of control and it illustrates the way in which the victim of bullying will often take his own victim. .

Thus, Kenny beats Fiona up for not emptying the kitchen tidy, rather than discussing the problem with her or simply doing the job himself. Similarly, Simmonds loses control and beats Kenny about the face as a react to Kenny's revelations about Fiona's sexual responses, maybe because of Simmonds own unexpected long-term sexual frustrations. .

Violence is indeed the focus of The Removalists, from the initial domestic violence that forced Fiona and Kate to report to the police station, up to the bloody climax of the drama.

David Williamson describe issue and attitudes surrounding domestic violence in addition to it's bad effects on women for example: Fiona says; "It hardly inspires confidence when your made love to one minute and bashed up the next".
