Removalists Preston
Movers4Melbourne is a local removalist working in Preston and right across Melbourne’s northern suburbs. We run out of 7/85 Cooper Street, Campbellfield, so Preston is a short run down the road for us rather than a cross-town trip.

What moving in Preston usually looks like
Preston is in the City of Darebin, postcode 3072, and it has changed a lot in the last decade. That shows up in the jobs we get called to:
- Older brick and weatherboard homes on the side streets. Californian bungalows and post-war houses, generally with a driveway and a decent front path. Straightforward access and a short carry.
- Townhouses off the main roads. Two and three-storey builds with internal stairs and a shared driveway. Stairs are what drive the time on these, so it helps to tell us how many flights there are and what has to come down them.
- Apartments along High Street, St Georges Road and Plenty Road. Lift booking and a loading bay make an enormous difference here. Most buildings want the lift booked in advance and some only allow moves at set times.
Access and parking worth sorting before the day
- High Street, Bell Street, Murray Road and Plenty Road are busy and have clearway restrictions at peak times. If your address is on one of them, an early start is usually the easier option.
- Around Preston Market, Preston Central and the station the kerbside parking is mostly time-limited. Tell us where you are and we will work out where the truck can stand.
- If your building or street needs a parking permit or a loading-bay booking, that is arranged by your council or building manager rather than by us, so it is worth doing well ahead.
- Shared driveways are common on the newer townhouse blocks. A quick word to the neighbours saves a lot of shuffling on the day.
What we can move for you
What it costs
- Upfront hourly rates, agreed with you before the job starts
- Van and man from $40 per half hour
- Furniture blankets, trolleys and straps supplied, at no extra charge
- Fully insured
- Available seven days a week
We are a removals company rather than a packing company: we do not pack your belongings into boxes for you and we do not offer storage. If you are packing yourself, we sell boxes and packing supplies in our shop.
What to tell us when you book
- Both addresses, and the floor level at each end
- Stairs and steps, and how far the truck will have to park from the door
- Anything heavy or awkward: a piano, a large fridge, a safe, a glass cabinet
- Whether everything will be packed and ready before we arrive
- Your date and preferred start time, and any building time restrictions
Photos of the access at both ends are genuinely useful. Send them straight to us on WhatsApp.
