Moving in Lane Cove West and Riverview

What the ground asks here

• The slope story. Plenty of houses here sit above or below their street. Our partner removalist asks early: does the truck go down the drive, or does the carry run to the kerb? Both are fine; only one of them should be a surprise.
• Footing before speed. A steep carry wants the route cleared: pots, hoses, loose pavers off the path. It is the cheapest preparation there is and it buys the crew real pace.
• Where the truck sits. On the narrower streets the removalist would rather park the truck where the load path is shortest than wherever is easiest to drive to. That decision is made before the day, from what you tell us.
• The industrial pocket. Lane Cove West keeps a working business area along its river end; office and workshop moves out of it run on the same published rates, with the bigger crew when the fit-out calls for it.

The move most people are making

Families here are usually moving up or settling in: from a townhouse or unit nearer the village into a house on the slope, or between houses a few streets apart. Riverview to the village centre is a five-minute drive; the moving day is decided at the two doors, not on the road. Run your pairing through the Two Doors planner and it will tell you what each end needs.

Crews and rates are our partner removalist's published set: 3 movers and a truck at $350 an hour fits most family houses here; 4 movers and two trucks at $500 when the home is large or both ends are slow.
