House removalists Burwood & Strathfield
A lot of our house moves start in a unit and end on a Federation street: the family upsizing a suburb sideways. Both homes get the same respect, and the measuring tape gets there before the trolley does.
Doorframes, taken seriously
Federation houses were built beautiful and built narrow. Before anything wide leaves the truck, we measure the hall return, find the narrowest doorway and pick the path. That five minutes of arithmetic is why the paintwork survives.
- Hall returns and doorway widths measured on arrival, both houses
- Felt on verandah posts and stair rails while the big pieces travel
- Leadlight and glass wrapped, padded and carried upright
- Floors runnered where the traffic will be heaviest
The standard for two-to-three bedroom houses. Four bedrooms and up moves to the large crew: 4 movers and 2 trucks at $500 an hour, one plan across both.
Honest arithmetic: a straightforward three-bed with decent access commonly runs 5 to 7 hours. Long carries, stairs and treasured pieces add time, and we say so up front.
Moves that work around real life
School terms, settlement dates, a piano nobody mentioned until Thursday: house moves carry a household's timetable with them. Tell us the fixed points and we plan the day around them, including which room lands first so beds are up before bedtime.
Comparing several quotes? Good. Ask every remover the same two questions: what does the hour cover, and who carries the piano. Our answers are in writing before you book.
The pieces with a story
Every house on these streets has one: the sideboard that came from Shanghai, the table that's been in the family longer than the suburb's had towers, the upright piano under the window. Name the piece you're worried about in your enquiry and it gets its own plan, its own padding and its own pair of hands.
Book the crew that measures first
Tell us what's moving and where. We call you back, ask the questions that matter, and give you an honest read on crew, truck and hours before anything is booked.
