Bondi
Removalists for Apartments, Walk-Ups and Busy Access

Ask for available lift windows once your date is known, before assuming the crew can use a preferred time. Obtain the cabin and door measurements, loading instructions and protection requirements. Send the confirmed booking to JB and check whether the receiving building needs a second reservation.

Obtain the rules for moving hours, security access and protection of common property from your strata or building manager. Clarify who supplies lift keys or opens a service gate. Share the actual instructions rather than relying on a neighbour’s earlier move; the NSW Government’s strata by-law guidance is a useful background reference.

JB can assess it, but a third-floor description does not establish that the furniture will fit. Show each flight and landing, including the turn out of your unit. Identify long or solid pieces and their measurements. The assessment may identify a preparation task or require a site/video review before the handling approach can be confirmed.

Check the signs and restrictions at the proposed loading point for the date and vehicle involved. Photograph the kerb and the path to the entrance, and avoid assuming an available car space is suitable for the truck. Use Waverley Council’s parking information and maps to help check the address.

Not automatically. Waverley Council’s tradesperson-permit eligibility excludes vehicles over 4.5 tonnes or longer than six metres. Eligibility for the actual vehicle and use still needs checking; a permit for a household car is not evidence that the moving vehicle is covered. Review the current Waverley Council tradesperson permit rules before relying on one.

A smaller vehicle may help the approach but can introduce an extra trip or transfer. Ask JB to weigh that against the actual load and the receiving property. Choosing a small truck solely because the collection street looks narrow can leave the rest of the transport task unresolved.

Check conditions for your chosen date rather than relying on a route that was clear during an earlier inspection. Tell JB about a known event, temporary access change or building restriction, and review the latest Waverley Council traffic information. A collection near busy activity may need a different arrival plan.

It is the carrying section between the property and the truck when loading cannot occur close to the entrance. Describe its length and any gates, surface changes or steps. That lets JB assess labour and equipment for the whole carry, including stairs inside the building, instead of quoting only the road journey.

Potentially, after the item and route have been assessed. Provide its dimensions, weight if known, construction and photographs of both sides of tight turns. JB’s heavy-item removal service can establish what further information is needed; do not assume equipment suitable for another job will suit your staircase.

Request the building’s protection specification and clarify who supplies and installs it. Lift covers, floor protection and doorway or wall protection may form different tasks. Have those arrangements, their timing and any materials included in the agreed scope so the crew can use the shared areas as planned.

Yes, with the work scoped in advance. Identify whether you need a complete pack, selected fragile pieces or help unpacking at the destination. Explain which rooms you will finish yourself. The packing and unpacking services can then be planned around materials, preparation time and the apartment’s moving window.

The quote needs to reflect the contents and the effort of moving them through the building. Stair turns, dismantling, walking distance, booked lifts and the loading position can change the task even for two similarly sized apartments. Packing or a declared heavy piece should be visible in the scope rather than buried in a headline hourly rate.

Send the item most likely to cause difficulty first, followed by the remaining inventory, exact addresses and preferred date. Include the stair sequence or lift measurements, kerb photographs and building rules. Resolve the uncertain access point before booking; the NSW Government recommends obtaining a detailed written quote.
