House Removalists
Our house moving solutions are made to make moving less stressful…
Learn More about House RemovalistsPreston sits close enough to the city that access matters, but it's still mostly a suburb of houses rather than towers — with a growing number of apartment blocks changing that.
At around 10km out, Preston is close enough to the city that parking and street access genuinely matter, but most of the suburb is still character homes on standard blocks rather than high-rise towers. That said, the number of apartment and townhouse developments near Preston Market and High Street has grown steadily, and those buildings do sometimes need a lift booking or loading zone reservation the way a CBD apartment would.
Several Preston streets, particularly those closer to the market and the train line, run resident permit parking schemes. A removalist truck parked without the right arrangement can attract a fine or get moved on mid-job. We check whether your street has permit restrictions before move day and arrange a temporary parking permit or loading zone where needed.
Preston's older weatherboard and double-fronted homes often have original staircases, narrower hallways and furniture that's been in place for years. We bring the right equipment and, where needed, partially disassemble larger pieces to get them through original doorways without damage.
We cover the wider northern suburbs including Reservoir. See every area on our service areas page.
