Reservoir Removalist
Removalists Reservoir
Urban Movers provides removalists in Reservoir for house moves, unit and townhouse moves, furniture jobs and office relocations across the City of Darebin. Reservoir is one of Melbourne’s largest suburbs, stretching across a wide area just north of Preston. Homes, streets and traffic vary a lot from one side to the other, so our crews plan each move around the exact address. With 10 years of moving experience, we offer clear hourly pricing and the same rate on weekends and public holidays.
Movers in Reservoir for Moves Big and Small
Reservoir is big enough that many people move from one part of the suburb to another, whether upsizing, downsizing or changing rentals. These short local moves are often quicker and more affordable than people expect.
- Short local moves: Moving across Reservoir usually means less drive time, so more of your booking goes on loading and unloading.
- Upsizing and downsizing: Families often move from a unit into a house, while long-time owners move into something smaller nearby. We handle both.
- Rental changeovers: Lease-end dates often bunch up at month-end, so booking early helps you lock in your preferred day.
How We Plan Moves Across Reservoir
- Post-war family homes: Many original brick and weatherboard houses sit on generous blocks with good driveway access, which keeps loading quick.
- Units and townhouses: Older blocks are often split into two or three dwellings with shared driveways and internal stairs. We check access and measure large items before the day.
- Broadway and Edwardes Street: The shopping village near Reservoir station gets busy, especially on weekends. We plan parking and loading carefully nearby.
- Edwardes Lake area: Streets near the park are quieter, but some have tight parking. We check where the truck can stop safely.
- Main roads: Plenty Road, Gilbert Road and Murray Road carry heavy traffic at peak times, so good timing keeps your paid hours down.
How Much Do Removalists in Reservoir Cost?
Local moves in Reservoir are usually charged by the hour for the crew and truck. We charge around $120 to $160 an hour for two movers and a truck. A standard three-bedroom house move often comes to roughly $1,100 to $1,200, while a short move within Reservoir can take less time.
What affects the price:
- How much furniture and how many boxes you have
- Stairs, shared driveways and parking at both homes
- Distance between your old and new home
- Traffic on main roads and near the shops
- Optional packing or storage
- You’ll get a written quote before booking, so the cost is clear from the start.
