Moving in the Sydney CBD - What You Need to Know

A move in the City can involve much more than getting furniture from one address to another. Apartment buildings, high-rises, heritage properties, busy streets and restricted access all need to be considered before the removal truck arrives.

Local Removalists Sydney CBD

NUSS provides local removal services throughout the Sydney CBD, the wider City of Sydney and surrounding inner-city areas. Every move begins by understanding the property, the volume and type of belongings being moved, access at both addresses and your preferred timing.

A NUSS consultant can arrange a home or video survey before preparing a written, obligation-free quote and coordinating the truck, crew, timing and additional services required. 

From professional packing and furniture protection to temporary storage between properties, the scope can be planned around your property access, household inventory and the services required for the move.

City of Sydney Removal Services

Apartment & Unit Removals - City of Sydney

From studio apartments to larger units, NUSS manages apartment moves throughout the Sydney CBD and surrounding inner-city suburbs. Lift access, loading areas, building requirements and timing can all be considered during the planning process once you have confirmed the applicable arrangements with your building manager.

Terrace & Townhouse Removals

Inner-city terraces and townhouses can involve narrow hallways, tight staircases, small entrances and limited street access. NUSS assesses these conditions before the move and plans the handling of furniture and belongings around the layout of the property.

Packing Service - CBD Sydney

NUSS offers full and partial packing services for City of Sydney moves.
Choose professional packing for your entire home, selected rooms or particular fragile belongings. Unpacking can also be arranged at your new property.

For apartment and high-rise moves, having boxes and belongings prepared before the crew arrives can also make better use of allocated building and lift access times.

Office Moves - City of Sydney

NUSS also coordinates office and workplace relocations throughout the CBD and surrounding commercial areas. Planning can take into account property access, furniture and equipment requirements, business schedules and other operational considerations agreed before moving day.

Why Sydney Families Choose NUSS for Local Moves

A City of Sydney move can involve more planning than the distance alone suggests.

Experienced Removal Crews

NUSS coordinates experienced removal teams for different Sydney property types, from high-rise apartments to terraces, townhouses and larger homes. The move is assessed in advance so the required truck, equipment, protective materials and timing can be planned around the access conditions involved.

Quotes Based on Your Move

Your quotation is prepared following a home or video survey so your consultant can understand the volume of belongings, access at both properties and any packing, storage or specialist requirements.

This gives you and the removal team a clear agreed scope before moving day. If the scope later changes, such as additional belongings, different access, added packing or storage, the quotation may also need to be adjusted.

One Consultant to Coordinate the Details

Your NUSS consultant remains your central point of contact during the planning process. They coordinate the agreed moving requirements and make sure the information supplied about property access, timing and additional services is factored into the move plan.

City of Sydney Removals - Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to move in the Sydney CBD?

The cost of a CBD move depends on the size of the property, volume of belongings, floor level, access at each address and any additional services such as packing or storage. NUSS can complete a home or video survey before preparing a written, obligation-free quote based on the actual requirements of your move.

Do you handle building access and lift bookings?

You are responsible for organising lift bookings and other building move-in or move-out requirements directly with your building or strata manager.

Once those arrangements are confirmed, provide the details to NUSS. Your consultant will incorporate them into the move plan so the operations team and removal crew can plan around the relevant access requirements.

Can you get a parking permit for the CBD?

Parking and access requirements vary according to the street, property and planned move. Your NUSS consultant can assess the access arrangements during the planning process and discuss whether any additional parking or loading arrangements may need to be organised before moving day.

What size truck do you use for CBD apartments?

Truck size depends on the amount being moved as well as street, loading-dock and building access. Your consultant considers these details during the survey and plans a suitable vehicle from the NUSS fleet based on the requirements of the move.

Do you move high-rise apartments in the City of Sydney?

Yes. NUSS manages apartment and high-rise moves throughout the City of Sydney. Your consultant can plan around the confirmed lift access, loading areas, building requirements and allocated moving times, while the removal team prepares for the access conditions at each property.
