What Our Client Says
Removalists in Collingwood
Collingwood sits in the City of Yarra, about 3 kilometres north-east of the CBD, between Fitzroy, Abbotsford and the Hoddle Street corridor. It is one of Melbourne’s oldest working suburbs and the housing reflects that: rows of single-fronted Victorian cottages and terraces on narrow streets, bluestone laneways behind them, former factories and warehouses converted to apartments and studios, and public housing towers along Hoddle Street.
What makes a Collingwood move difficult?
Parking, almost always. Streets are narrow, many are one-way, and resident permit zones cover most of the residential grid. A full-size truck frequently cannot stop outside the door and, where it can, may block the street entirely. We work out the standing spot and the carry distance when we quote rather than on the morning, and where a temporary parking bay is needed the City of Yarra is the body to arrange it with — that is not a same-week process, so start it early.
Cottages, laneways and staircases
The original cottages have narrow central hallways, doorways below modern standard and steep, often turning staircases. Wardrobes, sofas and fridges regularly need to come apart or go out through a window or off the rear laneway. Some laneways take a truck comfortably and others are impassable, so it is worth telling us whether you have rear access and roughly how wide it is.
Warehouse conversions and apartments
The converted buildings swap that problem for building rules: a booked service lift, a loading dock slot within set hours, and usually a certificate of currency from your removalist before a crew can start. Owners corporations often restrict moves to weekdays. Tell us what your building requires when you book so it is arranged in advance.
Getting around
Collingwood and Victoria Park stations serve the suburb, with trams on Smith Street, Johnston Street and Victoria Parade. For trucks, Hoddle Street, Johnston Street and Alexandra Parade are the main connections and all are heavily congested in peak. The Eastern Freeway entrance is close, which helps once the truck is loaded. For most Collingwood jobs we recommend an early start.
Where Collingwood moves go
Many stay in the inner north: Fitzroy, Abbotsford, Clifton Hill, Carlton or Richmond. Others are people leaving a cottage or an apartment for more space further out. Either way the load-out is what takes the planning here, and getting the parking right is most of it.
