Removalists Cremorne

Inner Melbourne moves between Punt Road, Church Street and the Yarra, by the hour.

Removalists loading wrapped furniture into a truck

A square kilometre of tight loading

Cremorne covers barely a square kilometre between Punt Road, Swan Street, Church Street and the Yarra River, with a railway line to South Yarra cutting it down the middle. The built environment is a dense mix of Victorian cottages, modern townhouses, converted factories and offices, all walled in by main roads on every side. That density decides the truck we choose and the way the crew works.

Our Cremorne removalists work by the hour, so the price reflects the truck, the crew and the actual time on the job. A supervisor owns every move from first item to last, including the loading order and any reassembly. If a bed, table or wardrobe will not fit through the hallway in one piece, we dismantle it and rebuild it at the new address. Local rates start from $75 per half hour for a two-person crew and a 20 cubic metre truck, and the full list by truck size is on our removalist prices page.

Victorian cottages and modern townhouses

Cremorne was part of Richmond until 1999, and the housing reflects both eras. The Victorian cottages have narrow hallways, small front yards and no garage, so the truck parks on the street and the crew carries furniture straight out the front door. The modern townhouses built over the last two decades are taller but tighter, with narrow stairwells and sometimes a basement car park with a height limit that matters when a removalist truck needs to get close.

We ask about the house type and the street before quoting. On a cottage, we check the hallway width and front path. On a townhouse, we check the stairwell, any lifts and the car park clearance. Punt Road and Church Street have parking restrictions that affect where the truck can sit, so tell us which side of the railway your place is on and we plan the approach.

Packing a Cremorne cottage or townhouse

Boxing up a cottage or townhouse does not take long if you start the day before. We supply a packing crew who handle the glassware, wardrobes and kitchen, or sell the boxes, paper and tape if you prefer to do it yourself. Either way, labelled boxes load faster and protect what is inside.

Each item is blanket-wrapped, plastic-covered and strapped tight, and every job carries public liability and transit insurance. If settlement dates do not line up, your things go into our climate-controlled store under 24/7 surveillance until you have the keys. Cremorne is only three kilometres from the CBD, so CityLink and the Monash Freeway are a short drive for interstate loads. You can take a full truck with a firm delivery day or share a backload priced on the space.

Start your Cremorne move

Send through both addresses, the bedroom count, any oversized pieces and whether the access involves stairs, a narrow hallway or a parking restriction. We come back with a rate and a truck recommendation. Try our calculator below to size the job first. No charge, no strings.

In a cottage with a narrow front path, having everything boxed, drawers emptied and the path clear gets the crew loading straight away and keeps the bill down. Call 1300 724 553 or use the contact form to get started.

How we work in a one-square-kilometre suburb

Hourly rates, no guesswork

Your quote names the truck, the crew and the hourly rate up front. No surprises once the clock starts.

Blankets, plastic and straps

Every piece of furniture is blanket-wrapped, plastic-covered and strapped so nothing shifts, whether the trip is three kilometres or three hundred.

A supervisor runs the plan

One person on the truck owns the loading order and the carry path, so the crew shifts furniture instead of figuring things out on the spot.

Covered for the move

Public liability and transit insurance on every job, so your things are protected from the old place to the new one.

The right truck, not the biggest

Cremorne's streets are narrow. We send the truck that fits your load and your street, not the biggest one available.

Packing done for you

Our packers wrap glassware and fragile items the same way every time and label every box by room, so nothing is guesswork at the other end.

Moving between Punt Road and Church Street

Delivery crew ready for a move

Can you park a truck on Church Street or Swan Street for a move?

Both streets have clearway and parking restrictions during peak hours. We check the rules for your move time and usually park on a side street closer to the house. If your place fronts one of the main roads, tell us and we plan the truck position and loading time around the restrictions.

How do you get furniture through the narrow hallways of a Victorian cottage?

We measure the hallway and doorframes before we start and dismantle beds, tables and wardrobes that will not fit through as a whole piece. Everything is blanket-wrapped and plastic-covered first, and the crew angles large items to clear tight turns without marking the walls.

Does the railway line that splits Cremorne affect truck access?

It can. The railway to South Yarra divides the suburb, and not every side street crosses it. We ask which side of the tracks your place is on so we approach from the right direction and avoid a long loop around via Punt Road or Church Street.

What truck size works for a modern townhouse in Cremorne?

Most two- or three-bedroom townhouses fit on a medium truck. If the townhouse has a narrow stairwell or a basement car park with a low clearance, we plan the carry around it. Tell us the number of floors and any access restrictions and we match the truck to the job.

How close is Cremorne to the freeway for an interstate load?

Cremorne is three kilometres from the CBD, so CityLink and the Monash Freeway are a short drive away. Sydney and Canberra loads join the Hume from there. You can book a full truck or share a backload and pay for the space your load needs.
