Local moving knowledge

Different properties need different moving plans

Moving conditions can vary considerably between a North Sydney apartment, a Chatswood office, a waterfront property and a larger family home farther north. Access information helps us plan the move before the truck arrives.

Apartments and high-rise buildings

Lift bookings, loading docks, building rules and designated moving times may need to be confirmed in advance.

Larger family homes

Larger inventories may require additional removalists, more than one vehicle or extra time for careful preparation.

Driveways and street access

Steep driveways, narrow streets, limited turning space and restricted parking can affect the most suitable truck.

Stairs and difficult furniture

Let us know about internal stairs, narrow entries, heavy items or furniture that may need to be dismantled.

Photos of difficult access or unusually large furniture can help our office team understand what will be required.

More than transport

My moving house experience this week went very smoothly because of Dan, Bob, Scott & Fabio from Man and His Van. The genuine care & understanding was paramount & as I was a bit behind on the day, they were reassuring & extremely helpful. I was confident & so grateful that I chose Man and His Van. Thank You!

We decided to move on Xmas eve and Dan booked us in for early January without a problem. Scott, Harry, Ramiro & Gabe were fast, helpful and courteous - really helped us lighten the load. We’ve used them before and will use them again!

These guys are the best!! They moved a house we had been in for 30+ years to a place with steep driveway and stairs with heaps of boxes and very large pieces of furniture. All done with smiles and complete care. We also had a couple of smaller moves and will require another small move of a lounge soon. They are members of the furniture removalists association which was important to us. They were great with their communication. Their location is easy to access and plenty of parking. You can get your boxes, tape, bubble wrap etc there and you will be greeted warmly no matter how often you go there plus you may get to meet the lovely 4 legged mascot Joey 😍. Oh and you get $ back on returned boxes, provided they were bought new. This doesn't apply to boxes bought 2nd hand and fair enough. These guys don't pressure you, as others did. They also don't ask for reviews, I had to ask them which is something I like. I can see why they have been around for so long. The guys who did our actual move were amazing. The planning was great, their communication with me and between each other was 100%. They were fit and strong, my god they were fit. They had little laughs with each other which put me at ease cause it showed they were a team and knew what they were doing, all 4 of them. I really really recommend Man and his van for your removals and thanks to you all for making this stressful time so much less so. See you next year, just for one small lounge phew.

Dan and his team really care. I had to ring around to find an emergency removalist on a Friday afternoon late. Everyone rejected me. Everyone. I tried 30 x removalists. Dan didn’t. He was the only one. He took the time to listen to me, to provide removalist options, but more so he would work Saturday from 7.30am to align with my deadline. The quality of their communications, good humour and attention to detail when moving and wrapping items was exemplary. Not only did they provide a large ish truck for my move, they had a back up additional truck parked in the street. As time grew tight, Dan himself and Zac added themselves to the team for a dedicated window of time to make sure that delivery was achieved. Nothing was too hard. They were first class. Prices were described in detail up front. Always in my control. You might go a long way to find a more dedicated team who genuinely focuses on delivery for the customer, as opposed to other movers who think their business is scheduling trucks. Top job Dan and team.

A top-class service in taking away our furniture as we ventured north to Brisbane, taking care of it for almost two years while we eventually found a house to buy and now helping ship it to us. Always very responsive, helpful and very well priced as well as giving advice not to store 'stuff' endlessly because you can't decide what to do with it. Highly recommended

I could not recommend the guys from Man and His Van highly enough. They were punctual, efficient, tidy, and empathetic to what was a very difficult move emotionally. Their service was over and above - even finding one box that was accidentally put into storage and delivering it back to me.

Scott and Simon provided a cool, calm and collected and sometimes humorous, removal for my move from Northern Beaches to Crntral Coast. I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends. They even balanced my refrigerator and connected my TV and washing machine. A great stressfree move. Well done boys.

Prepare for moving day

A little preparation can make moving easier

Sorting your belongings, planning your packing and identifying difficult items before moving day can reduce delays and make the relocation more manageable.

Our moving guides cover practical tasks you can complete in the weeks and days leading up to your move.

Start with items you no longer need. Decluttering before packing can reduce the volume being moved and help you begin your new home with less to unpack.

How far in advance should I book?

Booking early provides the best choice of moving dates, particularly for Saturdays, the end of the month and other busy periods.

Last-minute moves may be accepted when a suitable team and truck are available, so it is still worth contacting our office if your plans have changed unexpectedly.
