Moving in and out of Richmond

We move homes across Richmond every week, so we know the terrace-lined backstreets, the warehouse conversions, and the unbridled joy of actually snagging a free park anywhere in the same postcode as Bridge Road, Swan Street or Victoria Street. Whether it’s a one-bedroom apartment or a full family home, we bring the right team and the right number of Little Red Trucks to get you moved without the stress.

Richmond’s mix of narrow single-fronted terraces, converted warehouses and newer apartment blocks each come with their own quirks, from clearway times on the main roads to permit-only parking on the backstreets and the odd event day around the MCG to plan around. We time the run so parking and access don’t eat into your move. First time moving with us? Our FAQ and moving tips have you covered, and you can see what we do up front.

Helpful local resources

A few Richmond go-tos for the usual pre-move sorting.
  • Need storage? We recommend Storage King on Richmond Terrace.
  • Need boxes? Bunnings in nearby Collingwood (Victoria Parade) is your closest warehouse, though our own Little Red Tubs are a cheaper, eco-friendly hire if you’d rather not buy.
  • Need to donate stuff? Salvos Stores on Victoria Street accepts donations.
  • Need an end-of-lease clean? Boost Cleaning take care of move-out cleans and guarantee your bond back.
  • Got hard rubbish? Yarra City Council lets you book a hard rubbish collection. Head to their website to book.

Richmond moving questions, answered

How do you deal with clearways and permit parking on Bridge Road, Swan Street and Victoria Street?

We plan around them. Richmond’s main roads have clearway times when you can’t stop, and many backstreets are permit-only, so we time the load and unload to suit and organise a council permit for the truck where it’s needed. Just give us your address when you book.

Do you move warehouse conversions and multi-level terraces in Richmond?

Regularly. Converted warehouses can have freight lifts or awkward internal stairs, and single-fronted terraces are notoriously narrow, so we bring the right team and equipment for tight spaces. Let us know the layout and we’ll come prepared.

What if there’s something big on at the MCG on my move day?

It’s worth knowing about, but it’s not a dealbreaker. A packed MCG means traffic on Punt Road and Swan Street and parking that disappears fast, so we factor that in when we plan the run. Let us know your date when you book and we’ll flag it if there’s a game or gig on — and adjust the timing so it doesn’t eat into your move.
