Changerup is a rural locality of the Shire of Kojonup in the Great Southern region of Western Australia. Changerup is located along the Collie-Changerup Road. The Balgarup River flows through Changerup, eventually forming its north-western boundary and reaching the Arthur River at the localities western-most point, where the two rivers converge to form the Blackwood River.[1] [2]

Changerup and the Shire of Kojonup are located on the traditional land of the Kaniyang people of the Noongar nation.[3] [4] [5]

Changerup Hall, a community hall, is on the shire's heritage list and was built from 1953 and completed in 1957.[6] [7] Also on the shire's heritage list is Marinoni's House, which dates to 1912 and was built by Italian immigrants.[8]
