I dropped off the stuff with KC this afternoon and he has organized it in boxes already. I got a brief tour of his stash and it put mine to shame. Anyhow, this is the list.

Queensland and Victoria charge roughly US $2500 per couple for the room and food. I am flying into Sydney in New South Wales and currently there is no charge. Fortunately, I have a bank account that has my daughter's Sydney address so I can claim NSW residency. All this might change in the next three weeks.
Personally I believe that there should be no charge. The cost of the quarantine program is chump change compared to the cost of the virus escaping into the community. This has just happened in Melbourne where the state goverment hired a private contractor to provide security ensuring that the inmates stay in their rooms and obey all the rules. Apparently, the contractor did not supply sufficient training and there were numerous infractions including interaction between an inmate and a guard which presumably involved a bed. The guard became infected and duly passed the virus on. There have been outbreaks all over Melbourne with various suburbs now under lockdown. The cost will be enormous.
Meanwhile, the rest of Australia is now opening up gradually. It's possible to have a beer in a pub with a few mates. Some state borders are still closed but are planned to open later this month.
