Planning for the North Shore
North Shore moves can connect different kinds of homes, apartments, offices, and storage locations. Access is best understood address by address: where the vehicle can stop, how long the carry is, and what happens at stairs, lifts, doors, and corners.
Access checklist
Notes worth including for the North Shore.
- Describe the street or driveway approach, available stopping space, slope, and distance from vehicle to entrance.
- Include apartment or office building rules, lift bookings, loading areas, security access, and corridor or stair details.
- Flag narrow driveways, shared access, long carries, stairs, and tight turns before the quote is reviewed.
- Tell us where larger items will be placed and whether the destination has different levels or a less direct route.
Planning checklist
- Use an item list that calls out heavy, fragile, tall, or awkward pieces rather than describing the move only by room count.
- Check the route for the largest items, including lift dimensions, door widths, stair landings, and the space needed to turn.
- Include timing constraints from a building, workplace, tenancy, settlement, or storage facility.
- If parking or loading needs to be arranged by you or a building contact, tell us what has been confirmed and what is still open.
Property notes
Match the plan to the property.
These are prompts for a better quote conversation, not assumptions about your address. Use the notes that describe your move and add anything else that matters.
Multi-level properties
Stairs, lifts, split levels, and tight landings can change the order of the move. Note which items need each floor.
House to apartment moves
When the two properties have different access, list the requirements for each end so the quote conversation does not assume one route fits both.

How we plan your move
What shapes your the North Shore move.
The truck and crew we recommend depend on a handful of practical details. The more of these you can share, the more accurate the plan.
Volume and truck size
We run different truck sizes, so the estimated volume of your move helps us choose the right one and judge whether everything will fit in one trip.
Property type
A standalone house, a townhouse and an apartment each need different information. Tell us which you're moving from and to, and how many levels are involved.
Stairs, lifts and the carry
The walk between the truck and the door, the number of flights of stairs and whether there is a lift all affect how many movers a job needs and how long it takes.
Parking and loading space
Tell us where the truck can stop at each address. If parking or loading space is limited, a plan made beforehand avoids delays on the day.
