A cottage without a driveway isn't automatically a harder job

As an experienced Best Moving Company in West Footscray, VIC, we ask the right questions before quoting, not after you've booked.

West Footscray's older workers' cottages often sit right on the street with no off-street parking, unlike a newer suburb where every house has a driveway. Some companies quietly price this as a harder, more expensive job. It's worth knowing upfront whether yours does.

Why it's worth asking upfront

A company that treats a no-driveway cottage as a normal part of the job, not a special case, is being straightforward with you. One that adds a vague surcharge for ‘access’ without explaining it is worth a follow-up question.

What to ask before booking a West Footscray move

  • Does a cottage without off-street parking cost more than a house with a driveway?
  • Will you check my street's parking situation before quoting?
  • Is the quote based on my actual property, not a generic inner-west estimate?
  • What happens if the truck can't park close to the house?
