Northcote is one of Melbourne’s busiest inner-north suburbs, with a train line, a lively High Street strip and a Saturday crowd that never seems to thin out. Streets are lined with Victorian weatherboards, brick terraces and newer apartments, and most of them are narrow. It’s a great place to live, and a hard place to park a truck.

If you’re booking a removalist in Northcote, expect a few questions about parking first. Cars line both sides of nearly every street, permit zones are everywhere, and plenty of terraces have steep front steps, narrow hallways and no driveway. We check the street before the day and work out where the truck can sit, so nobody ends up carrying a couch around the corner.

Lots of moves here are flats, terraces and small houses, and sometimes two men and a truck is plenty. Other times it’s a bigger load and a few extra hands. Either way, Mover Melbourne pads the furniture, protects the walls and takes the stairs slowly. You’ll know the price before we start, and it won’t change on the day.
